Neuromodulation Market Growth and Analysis by 2031

The Neuromodulation market size was estimated to be US$ 8.87 billion in 2021 and US$ XX billion in 2023 and is expected to reach US$ 28.32 billion by 2031; it is estimated to record a CAGR of 15.2% in 2023–2031. The increasing incidence of neurological disorders and growing developments in neuromodulation technology are driving factors.  Technological advancements will likely remain key neuromodulation market trends.

Neuromodulation Market Analysis

Neuromodulation devices contain small electrodes on the spinal cord, brain, or peripheral nerves. Neurological disorders such as cerebrovascular diseases, Parkinson's disease, and Alzheimer's disease impact the neurological functioning of the body and hence can be cured with the help of neuromodulation. Furthermore, there are growing developments by medical device companies in neuromodulation and increasing training programs to treat neurological disorders. For instance, in December 2023, a training program on neuromodulation techniques in mental health by the Centre for Advanced Research and Excellence in Neuromodulation for medical professionals was launched at the AIIMS.

Neuromodulation Market Overview

North America is the largest market for neuromodulation. The growth is mainly driven by the incidences of neurological conditions such as Parkinson’s disease, epilepsy, Alzheimer’s disease, and depression, among others. For instance, as per the CDC, the people living with Alzheimer’s disease double up every 5 years of age 65 and by 2060 this number is expected to triple to 14 million people by 2060. Among all ethnic group, as compared to men, women are nearly two times more likely to be affected by Alzheimer's disease. Furthermore, among Americans aged 65 and older, Alzheimer’s remains the fifth-leading cause of death, due to which deaths from stroke, heart disease, and HIV have increased by more than 145% between 2000 and 2019.

Neuromodulation Market Drivers and Opportunities

Growing Developments in Neuromodulation Technology

Neuromodulators alter nerve activity by precisely delivering electrical or pharmaceutical agents at the target site. These are repeatedly used for chronic pain relief and growing technological has increased its applications. For instance, in November 2022, CVRx launched a new neuromodulation device to treat heart failure. This neuromodulation device treats the symptoms of heart failure, a new Barostim NEO2 implantable pulse generator (IPG). This second-generation reduces the size of the IPG by 10% and widens battery life by 20%, thus reducing the device frequency replacements for patients and their providers. Furthermore, in April 2021, Medtronic announced the FDA approval to proceed with an investigational device exemption (IDE) trial to gauge its internally developed implantable tibial neuromodulation (TNM) device, a therapy intended to deliver relief from symptoms of bladder incontinence.

Rising Demand for Neurostimulation Devices to Treat Chronic Pain – An Opportunity

The demand for pain management devices is growing among the elderly and people who have osteoporosis, rheumatoid arthritis, and other such conditions. NCBI research states that in India, almost 61 million people have osteoporosis and out of these, 80% are women. The peak incidence of osteoporosis in India occurs 10–20 years earlier than in Western countries. Such diseases are demanding neurostimulation devices to treat pain.

Furthermore, several startups are designing devices with a prime focus on neurostimulation therapy. During the therapy, these devices deliver electrical stimulation to the spinal cord, dorsal root ganglion, and brain that helps relax muscles and reduce pain. Thus, the advantages of neurostimulation therapy have encouraged the development of enhanced products in the neuromodulation market.

Adoptions of neuromodulation devices have increased significantly across various North American, European, and Asian countries.

Neuromodulation Market Report Segmentation Analysis
