Executive Summary and South and Central America Joint Reconstruction Devices Market Analysis:
The South and Central America joint reconstruction devices market is developing positively as a result of demographics, increased incidence of osteoarthritis and improved access to orthopedic care. The rising demographics have increased demand for knee and hip arthroplasty in countries like, Brazil, Argentina and Colombia, which have more surgical capacity and both public and private health care providers. Access to advanced procedures is improving in urban centres where there is also a growing interest in modern implants, including minimally invasive joint replacements. In Central America, the growth of joint replacement is much slower, as it is usually only offered in private hospitals or public hospitals have joint replacement programs. As the demand for procedures continues due to medical tourism to countries such as Costa Rica, middleware companies are starting to enter the market. Issues still exist with reimbursement limitations and access but with the increased awareness and investment in surgical and implant infrastructures, South and Central America should be viewed as an emerging market with long-term growth in joint reconstruction.
