Orthopedic braces and supports are external devices that provide support to and immobilize joints and weakened musculoskeletal groups. Braces and supports ensure that the affected body part is held in the correct position to facilitate function and healing. Several types of braces are utilized for different purposes: prophylactic braces are used to prevent or reduce the severity of sports injuries, functional braces are utilized to provide stability to unstable joints, and rehabilitative braces are designed to allow controlled motion during rehabilitation (post-op or otherwise) of injured joints and muscle groups.

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 Orthopedic Braces and Supports 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 Orthopedic Braces and Supports devices. Overall, most of these Orthopedic Braces and Supports pipeline devices are being developed by private entities.
