According to Business Market Insights’ research, the Europe medical exoskeleton market was valued at US$ 107.48 million in 2023 and is expected to reach US$ 853.96 million by 2031, registering a CAGR of 29.6% from 2023 to 2031. Increasing prevalence of SCIs and growing incidence of stroke and musculoskeletal are among the critical factors attributed to drive the Europe medical exoskeleton market growth.
Reduced physical activity and the predominance of seated activities can lead to severe physical and psychological deterioration in people suffering from Spinal Cord Injury (SPI). Secondary complications related to SCI can also reduce life expectancies. According to the National Library of Medicine, nearly 250,000–500,000 patients suffer from SCIs every year worldwide. According to a report published by the Association for Spinal Injury Research, Rehabilitation and Reintegration (Aspire, UK), ~2,500 people are diagnosed with SCIs annually in the UK. Currently, ~50,000 people are living with these injuries in the UK. According to the WHO, globally, ~1.19 million people die every year in road crashes, and 20–50 million people suffer non-fatal injuries, with many incurring disabilities. Similarly, according to the Mayo Clinic estimates, sports and athletic activities such as diving in shallow water, basketball, and football cause ~10% of spinal cord injuries. Companies such as Lifeward are focusing on developing exoskeletons that help patients with SCI perform physical activities without pain. For instance, about 20% of the SCI population can be considered candidates for clinical trials of the current ReWalk Personal Exoskeleton or ReWalk Rehabilitation Exoskeleton. Moreover, soft exo-suit devices in medical exoskeletons can be used for patients suffering from SCI. Thus, the increase in the prevalence of SCI and ongoing research for the use of exoskeletons for SCI patients can be expected to fuel the market growth during the forecast period.
