Summary

Orthopaedic braces and supports are devices that are used to support, stabilize, or protect injured or weakened joints and muscles. In China, these medical devices are becoming increasingly popular as the population ages and the incidence of musculoskeletal injuries and chronic conditions such as arthritis and osteoporosis rises. Furthermore, sports are a popular activity in China, and many people participate in various sports at both amateur and professional levels. Unfortunately, sports injuries are also quite common and orthopaedic braces and supports can help provide support and stability to injured joints and muscles during the recovery process. Moreover, many jobs in China require workers to perform physical labour or repetitive motions, which can increase the risk of injuries to joints and muscles. Orthopaedic braces and supports can help prevent injuries by providing support and reducing the strain on the affected area. In addition, many people in China who participate in sports or engage in physically demand work use braces and supports to prevent injuries. For example, athletes may use knee braces to prevent ACL injuries or wrist supports to prevent sprains while weightlifting.

According to the research report "China Orthopedic Braces & Supports Market Overview, 2028," published by Bonafide Research, the China Orthopedic Braces & Supports market was valued at more than USD 337.90 Million in 2022. China has a large ageing population, which is expected to drive demand for orthopaedic braces and supports. As people age, they are more likely to suffer from joint pain and other orthopaedic conditions, leading to an increased need for braces and supports. In addition, the use of wearable technology in orthopaedic braces and supports is a growing trend in China. Smart braces that incorporate sensors and wireless connectivity can monitor patient movement and provide real-time feedback to doctors and physiotherapists. Furthermore, with the rise of telemedicine in China, it is now possible for doctors and physiotherapists to remotely monitor and adjust orthopaedic braces and supports worn by their patients. This can improve patient outcomes and reduce the need for in-person visits. Moreover, medical tourism is becoming increasingly popular in China, with patients from other countries travelling to China for orthopaedic treatments and procedures. This is driving growth in Chinese orthopaedic braces and supports. Moreover, AI technology is being used to develop advanced imaging and diagnostic tools that can help doctors and patients better understand the nature of their injuries and the best course of treatment.

Based on product type, Knee injuries are quite common in China due to the large population and high prevalence of physically demanding occupations, such as farming and construction work. This has led to a high demand for knee braces and supports in the country. Furthermore, there is an increasing awareness among people about the benefits of using knee braces and supports for injury prevention and post-surgery recovery. This has led to a rise in the use of knee braces and supports, particularly among athletes and fitness enthusiasts. For instance, some popular knee braces and supports in China include the Ossur CTi Knee Brace, the Bauerfeind Genutrain Knee Support, and the DonJoy Armour Knee Brace. In addition, hand and wrist braces and supports are used to provide support and stability to the hand and wrist and can be used to treat conditions such as carpal tunnel syndrome, wrist sprains, and wrist fractures. Some popular hand and wrist braces and supports in China include the Ossur FormFit Wrist Brace, the Bauerfeind ManuTrain Wrist Support, and the DonJoy ComfortFORM Wrist Support.

The distribution channels for orthopaedic braces and supports in China are diverse and cater to different customer needs. The market is segmented into various channels, including hospitals and surgical centres, orthopaedic clinics, pharmacies and retailers, e-commerce platforms, and other end-users such as physiotherapy centres, government regulatory organisations, academic institutes, and CROs, among others. Furthermore, hospitals and surgical centres are one of the largest distribution channels for orthopaedic braces and supports in China, as they provide a wide range of medical services and have access to a large patient base. Many hospitals and surgical centres also have dedicated orthopaedic departments that specialize in the treatment of musculoskeletal disorders. However, e-commerce platforms such as Taobao, JD, and Tmall have gained significant popularity in recent years as a convenient and efficient way to purchase orthopaedic braces and supports. These platforms offer a wide variety of products from different manufacturers, making it easy for consumers to compare prices and features before making a purchase.

The Chinese government has recognized the importance of ensuring the safety and efficacy of medical devices, including orthopaedic braces and supports. In 2014, the State Food and Drug Administration (SFDA) issued new regulations requiring all medical devices to be registered and certified before being sold in China. This includes orthopaedic braces and supports, which must meet strict standards to be approved for sale. For instance, under these regulations, medical device manufacturers must submit applications for product registration and certification, which are reviewed by the SFDA. The SFDA evaluates the safety and efficacy of the product, as well as the manufacturing process and quality control measures in place. Only products that meet these standards are granted registration and certification and are allowed to be sold in China. In addition to these regulations, the Chinese government has also established a National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) to oversee the registration and approval of medical devices. The NMPA works to ensure that medical devices are safe and effective and that they meet the needs of patients in China.
