Of these devices, nine are in active development, while the remaining nine are in an inactive stage of development. There are five products in the early stages of development, and the remaining four are in the late stages of development.
Knee prosthetics include two types of prostheses, mechanical knee prostheses and microprocessor knee prostheses. Mechanical knee prostheses utilize a mechanical hinge to replace the missing knee joint. The hinge’s swing speed is controlled by friction, a hydraulic system, or a locking mechanism, and locks manually when pressure is placed on the leg. Microprocessor knee prostheses use computer feedback from sensors that monitor the knee position during the gait cycle to control the prosthesis swing speed and degree of knee stability. One unit refers to one knee prosthesis.
Innovations in the medical devices sector are linked to the development of new approaches, processes, or technologies for treating, diagnosing, and managing disease in response to demand from healthcare for better patient outcomes and reduce healthcare costs.
Based on an analysis of GlobalData’s Medical Intelligence Center pipeline product database, these actively developed Knee Prosthetics pipeline devices are all expected to be approved within the next ten years.
Currently, private organizations, public entities and institutions are working on the development of Knee Prosthetics devices. Overall, most of these Knee Prosthetics pipeline devices are being developed by private entities.
Key players involved in the active development of Knee Prosthetics include ATRO Medical, BionicM, Bionik Laboratories, BionX Medical Technologies, Clemson University, DJO Global, Empowered Technologies, Florida State University, Hospital for Special Surgery and Indian Institute of Technology Delhi.
