Prosthetic Joint Infection Market is driven by Increasing Number of Joint Replacements

Posted 2025-02-25 10:17:28

Prosthetic joints such as hip and knee replacements have become a viable option for treating arthritis and other joint disorders. However, prosthetic joint replacements can become infected, requiring treatment. Prosthetic joint infections occur in 1-3% of all joint replacements, with risk factors including previous joint surgery, existing infection elsewhere in the body, and extended hospital stays. When a prosthetic joint becomes infected, it is difficult to treat with antibiotics alone and usually requires irrigation and debridement surgery to remove the infected tissue and implant. Due to the aging population and rising obesity rates, the number of joint replacement surgeries is increasing worldwide. As more prosthetic joints are implanted, the risk of postoperative infections also increases proportionally.

The prosthetic joint infection market is estimated to be valued at USD 64.2 Mn in 2024 and is expected to reach USD 91.6 Mn by 2031, growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.2% from 2024 to 2031.

Key players operating in the prosthetic joint infection market are Zimmer Biomet, Stryker Corporation, Arthrex Inc., Wright Medical Group N.V., and Corin Group.

These companies collectively account for a majority share of the Prosthetic Joint Infection Market owing to their strong brand recognition and robust distribution networks worldwide.

The growing demand for prosthetic joint replacements, especially hip and knee replacements, driven by the increasing geriatric population is a major factor contributing to the growth of this market. As the number of joint replacement surgeries rises globally, the incidence of postoperative joint infections is also expected to increase proportionally over the forecast period.
