Market Research Reports, Inc. (www.marketresearchreports.com): MarketResearchReports.com: Bone Grafts and Substitutes - Global Analysis and Market Forecasts, New Report Launched(M2 PressWIRE Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) Although autograft is still perceived as the gold-standard material in bone grafting, the wide array of alternatives available in the market has resulted in a gradual shift towards increased adoption of bone grafts and substitutes (BGS), especially in the US and European markets. In contrast to the general picture in developed countries, autograft bone still represents the most popular option during bone grafting in the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region and South America. The market for BGS is characterized by rapid technological change, frequent new introductions, changes in customers' demands and evolving industry standards. An example is the industry's recent re-evaluation of the expanding utilization of BMPs. Moving forward, the shift to lower-dosed BMPs is expected to be accompanied with continued rise in the sales volume of synthetic bone substitutes in all markets, and increased adoption of cell-based matrices in the US market. Since BGS companies have uncovered new ways of using their technologies to find synergies with spine hardware products, and orthopedic implants to deliver better therapeutic outcomes, future access in the market will hinge on suppliers positioning their products as part of a broader therapy system for bone repair that includes multiple offerings. Meanwhile, companies will need to understand two basic driving forces in the global BGS arena . (c) 2014 M2 COMMUNICATIONS [ Back To TMCnet.com's Homepage ] |
