The increasing incidence of injuries and trauma that require surgical procedures is expected to boost the growth of the pediatric ankle orthoses market
Skeletal immaturity in pediatric patients leads at a greater risk of physical fractures than ligament tears, which may cause physical impairment and disability. The rising disability and injuries among the pediatric population is expected to increase demand for pediatric ankle orthoses and thereby drive the market growth during the forecast period. For instance, according to an article published by the University of Western States, the prevalence of ankle sprains in children was around 2.85 per 1,000 exposures in 2014.
However, common problems such as redness in areas due to incorrect application, incorrect fit of AFO, change in body shape, sweaty skin reduces the compliance of such devices and is expected to restrain the market growth during the forecast period.
