Three-Pin Skull Clamp Dominated Skull Clamp Market in 2022

The increasing prevalence of neurosurgeries and a rise in the number of traumatic brain injuries are the factors that contribute to the skull clamp market growth. However, the growing number of injuries caused by skull clamps leading to inaccurate skull clamp analysis restricts the market growth.

Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) often occur due to severe sports injuries or road accidents. There are four main types of TBIs concussion, contusion, penetrating injuries, and anoxic brain injuries. The symptoms of TBIs differ with the extent of damage to the brain. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), there were ~64,000 TBI-related deaths in the US in 2020. A report by BIAA states that ~2.8 million people in the US suffer from TBIs annually, and ~280,000 of these cases result in hospitalizations, with ~50,000 injuries being fatal. According to the Defense and Veterans Brain Injury Center (DVBIC), from 2000 to late 2019, ~414,000 TBIs were reported among US military members. Likewise, per the Brain Injury Association Waterloo-Wellington, ~11,000 fatalities are observed yearly due to TBIs in Canada, resulting in over 6,000 people becoming permanently disabled with post-traumatic brain injuries. Also, according to the European Commission, ~2.5 million people in the European Union and the UK suffer a TBI each year, of which 1.5 million are admitted to hospital and 57,000 die. In developing countries such as India, severe TBIs have a mortality rate of more than 30% and can cause significant morbidity in 60–70% of the cases. In India, more than 100,000 lives are lost every year with over 1 million suffering from serious head injuries. With such a high prevalence of TBIs, the number of brain surgeries performed is increasing in various countries, in turn, boosting the use of skull clamps for head fixation.

Based on product, the skull clamp market is segmented three-pin skull clamp, four-pin skull, and two-pin skull clamp. In 2022, the three-pin skull clamp segment accounted for the largest market share, and it is expected to register the highest CAGR during 2022–2028. The dominating market position of the three-pin skull clamp segment is due to its rigid fixation capability, ease of operation, and accuracy. The 3-pin skull clamp is the most popular pin-type head frame and is equipped with a force gauge integrated with the torque screw on the side, with one pin.

The outbreak of COVID-19 worldwide has negatively impacted the growth of the skull clamp market due to delays in production and supply, as well as a shift in the focus of research institutions on the pandemic. The US is one of the major markets for new product research and development; however, the research sector has shifted its focus toward vaccine development during the COVID-19 crisis. Moreover, to cope with the increasing number of COVID patients, elective treatment procedures for several types of brain injuries were postponed in the country in 2020 and 2021.

Black Forest Medical Group, Integra LifeSciences Holdings Corp, Hill Rom Holding Inc, Eschmann Technologies Ltd, BD, TeDan Surgical Innovations, Barrfab Industria Commerce Import and Export of Hospital Equipment Ltda, Herbert Thailand Co Ltd, Medifa GmbH & Co KG, Micromar Industria e Com Ltda, and Schaerer Medical AG are among the key companies operating in the skull clamp market.
