In addition, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), an estimated 78 million U.S. adults are expected to suffer from arthritis by 2040. In addition, YOY growth in the geriatric population worldwide, high prevalence of chronic diseases such as Alzheimer's, strokes, and cerebrovascular diseases, and high prevalence of ENT disorders are anticipated to promote the market’s growth rate.

MARKET RESTRAINTS:

The expensive cost of surgical navigation systems and rigorous rules and regulations for product clearance by regulatory agencies and prior product recalls are restricting the growth rate of the global surgical navigation systems market. Stringent government restrictions are one of the difficulties that might hinder the surgical navigation systems market's growth rate. Furthermore, the lack of awareness would cause hurdles in the expected expansion during the forecast period.

Impact of COVID-19 on the global surgical navigation systems market:

COVID-19 is an unprecedented global public health crisis that has impacted nearly every business, with long-term consequences expected to restrict industrial growth throughout the forecast period. The pandemic coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has significantly impacted surgeons and surgical patients. Treating patients with surgical illnesses necessitates a unique and personal relationship between the patient and the surgeon, which telemedicine cannot replace. The COVID-19 pandemic has substantially influenced the surgical navigation system industry in Europe, with regional limitations on elective surgeries causing many procedures to be delayed. In addition, COVID-19 poses unique risks to surgical patients. Performing surgery on individuals with COVID-19, whether asymptomatic or symptomatic, raises the risk of perioperative morbidity and death. Several institutions have shared best practices for restructuring surgical residency programs and treating SARS-CoV-2 patients while reducing risk to non-infected patients and other healthcare workers. The COVID-19 pandemic has also posed difficulties in training future surgical personnel. Because most firms are focusing on preventive measures during the pandemic, the demand chain has dropped significantly. The revenue is projected to offset the losses in future years.
