Increasing incidences of road accidents in North America region will stimulate the regional growth: 

U.S. dominated the North America orthopedic devices market and captured over 94% of revenue share in 2025 owing to the well-developed healthcare infrastructure and rise in number of orthopedic surgeries. Increase in the number of amputations and road accidents in the U.S. are anticipated to amplify the market for these devices in the country. As per the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) and Highway Loss Data Institute (HLDI), in 2025, there were 33,244 fatal motor vehicle accidents in the U.S. resulting in 36,096 deaths. Growing incidence of accidents in the country will increase the adoption rate of orthopedic devices, One of the primary factors contributing to the market's expansion is the rising incidence of musculoskeletal disorders, such as osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and osteoporosis. These conditions are particularly prevalent among the elderly, a demographic that is growing rapidly worldwide. As life expectancy increases, so does the demand for effective orthopedic treatments and interventions, including joint replacement surgeries, spinal procedures, and trauma care.
