The sports medicine device market is one of the fastest growing fields in healthcare, largely because of the growing number of youth-related sports activities and injuries, according to a study by Transparency Market Research. The device market is expected to grow 9.5 percent by 2018, with the U.S. maintaining the largest share of the worldwide market. Knee applications are expected to be the largest shareholder because of the prevalence of anterior cruciate ligament injuries and an aging population, according to the report.
Emerging sports countries — such as China, India and Korea — will contribute to worldwide market growth.
