COVID-19 IMPACT


Demand declined during the COVID-19 pandemic as a result of elective procedures being postponed due to the risk of COVID-19 infection


The global demand for these devices was considerably impacted by the appearance of COVID-19. The world's need for implants was directly impacted by the cancellation of surgical procedures, including bone implantations. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, major market participants in the implant manufacturing industry experienced a drop in their revenues from implant sales.


Moreover, key market players are realigning their strategy from selling high-priced customized implants to a more standard variant, keeping costs low.



  • For instance, Conformis switched to selling its cost-effective lower-priced bone implants during the lockdown from their more customized versions of these devices. The strategic decision was taken to improve the orthopedic implants market share of the company during the pandemic.

Moreover, Zimmer Biomet reported a decline of 12.0% in its orthopedic product revenue while Stryker reported a decline of 6.3% in orthopedics product revenue.


Additionally, raw material shortages, the reallocation of procedures postponing the need for implants, and travel limitations were among the difficulties experienced by important firms operating in the industry. However, patient volumes are returning to levels resembling those prior to the pandemic. This was caused by the easing of rules and requirements put in place by various governments around the world. Due to increased vaccination rates among the general public, tight COVID-19 standards in public settings, the removal of travel-related limitations, and other factors, the number of patients increased in 2021. As a result, there will be more demand for bone implants in 2021.



  • For instance, in 2021, Johnson and Johnson Services Inc. reported a growth of 10.6% in revenue compared to the previous financial year from its orthopedics segment. Also, in 2020, Johnson and Johnson Services Inc. further reported a recovery of 13.2% in revenue from its knee implants segment. Moreover, major market players, such as Zimmer Biomet and Stryker, have reported recovery of 11.6% and 26.0% in the orthopedics segment's revenue compared to the previous financial year.
