The growing geriatric population and a rise in the number of orthopedic cases and accidents is notably driving the medical crutches market growth, although factors such as the influence of local vendors may impede the market growth. Our research analysts have studied the historical data and deduced the key market drivers and the COVID-19 pandemic impact on the medical crutches industry. The holistic analysis of the drivers will help in deducing end goals and refining marketing strategies to gain a competitive edge.
Key Medical Crutches Market Driver
One of the key factors driving growth in the medical crutches market is the growing geriatric population and a rise in the number of orthopedic cases and accidents. The use of medical crutches is mainly driven by the increasing number of orthopedic conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis, knee problems, and lower extremities pain. These conditions are mainly affecting the older population. This led to an increase in the dependency of individuals on family members and caregivers for their mobility, which creates demand for medical crutches. The number of accident cases is also increasing. Accidents include unintentional injuries, unintentional falls, and road accidents. The victims of these injuries need after-treatment care for speedy recovery. In most of the cases, the issue is related to bones, which limits the patients' mobility. With the use of crutches, they can easily overcome this challenge. Thus, the growing geriatric population and the rise in the number of orthopedic cases and accidents are expected to fuel the growth of the global medical crutches market.
Key Medical Crutches Market Trend
The online marketing and sales of medical crutches is a medical crutches market trend that is expected to have a positive impact in the coming years. Online marketing is a tool that helps end-users seek cost-efficient products and time-efficient delivery. Thus, they will obtain the requested products within a short period. Vendors are using promotional strategies with the help of online marketing to increase the accessibility of their products, which, in turn, drives product sales. The strategies related to online marketing also help vendors minimize the business setup, distribution, and operational costs. Online shopping portals provide customers with information regarding the types, functions, and specifications of medical crutches. Online marketing allows vendors to measure their products' sales volume and calculate the associated revenue. Suppliers and vendors have increased their focus on online marketing strategies because of the growing demand for mobility aid products, including medical crutches, from end-users.
Key Medical Crutches Market Challenge
The influence of local vendors will be a major challenge for the medical crutches market during the forecast period. Medical crutch vendors do not need a huge capital investment to manufacture crutches. Some exceptions also exist such as technologically advanced leg crutches or knee scooters, which demand a significant capital investment. Since most of the medical crutches are easy to manufacture, many new vendors are entering the market, focusing on regional customers. Multinational players are affected by the growth of the local players. Regional players can sell crutches in the local market at an affordable price. At the same time, owing to the high cost of production, the global players cannot reduce the price of their products. In such cases, the global players may reduce their R and D investments to reduce the price of their products and remain competitive in the market. Thus, the growth of the local players is expected to hinder the growth of the global medical crutches market.
