The global upper limb prosthetics market size was US$ 716.9 million in 2021. The global upper limb prosthetics market size is forecast to reach US$ 1044.28 million by 2030, growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.25% during the forecast period from 2022 to 2030.

Upper limb prosthetics are artificial devices intended to replace a lost hand or arm due to an accident, injury, illness, trauma, or congenital defect. The upper limb prosthetic includes terminal devices (TD), interposing joints, sockets, suspensions, and control systems. Upper extremity prostheses fall into four general categories. Body-powered, myoelectric, and hybrid-type prostheses are among these.

Factors Influencing Market Growth

A rise in accidents and trauma, technological developments in prosthetics, and a rise in bone conditions such as osteosarcoma, osteoporosis, and osteopenia are leading to the growth of the global upper limb prosthetics market.
The high cost and greater maintenance associated with these devices, and the lack of reimbursement policies, may slow down the global market growth.
The government's increased support for amputees provides the market with lucrative growth opportunities.
Impact Analysis of COVID-19

The COVID-19 pandemic was an unprecedented global public health challenge that adversely affected upper limb prosthetics sales. The initial period of the COVID-19 pandemic delayed limb surgeries, which led to a decline in prosthetics consumption. The COVID-19 pandemic had a negative impact on the upper limb prosthetics market overall. Several factors contributed to this, including the difficulty in managing the amputation cases, the prolonged recovery time in the covid-19 condition, and the delay in limb surgeries.

Regional Insights

North America dominated the upper limb prosthetics market in 2021, accounting for the largest share, and this trend is forecast to continue throughout the forecast period. Contributing factors include a rise in accidents and traumas, a rise in patient awareness of prosthetic surgeries, a surge in demand for prosthetic devices, the availability of advanced healthcare facilities with trained medical professionals, and the presence of key players in the region.
