According to the Global Burden of Disease Study, 2017, about 16% of disability cases were a result of musculoskeletal conditions, which is the second-largest cause of global disability. These conditions comprise more than 150 diagnoses that affect the bones, muscles, joints, and associated tissues — collectively referred to as the locomotor system.
The most common and disabling musculoskeletal conditions are osteoarthritis and systemic inflammatory conditions, such as rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The prevalence of RA lies between 0.3 and 1%, and the condition more commonly affects females. Further, globally, symptomatic osteoarthritis affects 9.6% men and 18% women over 60 years of age.

These conditions mainly affect the connective tissue, joints, fibrous tissue, articular cartilage, and tendons, which results in reduced mobility, excruciating pain, and joint deformity. Therefore, with the rising incidence of musculoskeletal conditions, the need for joint replacement is also growing.

The highest usage of small Joint Reconstructive implants was observed in the North American region, among all other regions, such as Middle East & Africa, Europe, Latin America, Europe, and Asia-Pacific (APAC), in the past. This was attributed to the well-established healthcare industry in the region, technological advancements, and high adoption rate of such implants. In the coming time, the fastest growth in demand for small joint reconstructive implants will be registered by the APAC region.
This can be ascribed to the sedentary lifestyle of people and growing incidents of road accidents. The World Health Organization reported that in China, road traffic injuries are the major cause of death of people in the 15–44 age group. Further, India is also witnessing a surge in road accidents, which is adding to the demand for joint implants in the region.
