DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/bp3s3h/medipoint_total) has announced the addition of the "MediPoint: Total Shoulder Replacement - APAC Analysis and Market Forecasts" report to their offering.

“MediPoint: Total Shoulder Replacement - APAC Analysis and Market Forecasts”

Compared with the more mature reconstruction markets, such as hip and knee replacements, shoulder reconstruction is developing as a specialty. Current market growth in shoulder reconstruction is mainly driven by total shoulder replacement (TSR), which comprises anatomic total and reverse total shoulder replacements. Although sluggish economic growth has hindered the large-joint replacement market in the United States and Europe, the global TSR market has seen a promising growth rate in the past few years. This healthy growth can be attributed to an increasing patient population, an improved surgeon adoption of reverse shoulder implants, as well as evolving insurance and reimbursement landscape.

The authors evaluated currently marketed TSR prostheses, identified the unmet needs in the market, and provided an understanding of surgeon perception of the latest advances within the shoulder community. Over the forecast period, despite the dampening effect of downward pricing pressure, the TSR market is expected to enjoy healthy growth, primarily driven by the trend of active aging, continuous medical education efforts from the supply side, the introduction of additional reverse shoulder implants and the FDA's approval of modern stemless designs. In particular, the market size of reverse TSR is expected to grow at a much faster pace compared with anatomic TSR.

Although sluggish economic growth has hindered the large-joint replacement market in the United States and Europe, the global total shoulder replacement market has seen a promising growth rate in the past few years. This report focuses on TSR market in three APAC countries: Japan, China and India. An accelerated market expansion is expected in emerging countries including China and India.
