North America is expected to dominate the Overall Spinal Cord Stimulators (SCS) Market:

North America is expected to dominate the overall Spinal Cord Stimulators (SCS) market during the forecast period. This domination is due to the improved reimbursement policies by the government, and the high adoption of technological advancements owing to the rise in healthcare expenditure by the US government.

Further, the United States represents the largest market worldwide supported by a large number of key players present in the region. Rising product launch and commercialization agreements among the key manufacturers and other companies are anticipated to boost the market growth. For instance, in January 2021, the recent launch of Boston Scientific’s WaveWriter Alpha portfolio of Spinal Cord Stimulator (SCS) systems. The unified portfolio of four MRI conditional, Bluetooth-enabled rechargeable, and non-rechargeable implantable pulse generators (IPGs) provides uncompromised personalization, is expected to propel the market growth of Spinal Cord Stimulators (SCS).

Europe and Asia-Pacific region have the future potential growth for the Global Spinal Cord Stimulators (SCS). Some of the attributing factors are support provided by the government by easy approval for bringing new products into the market and easy reimbursement policies in the European region countries and Asian countries. Additionally, the huge popularity and high adoption rate due to the availability of various options available in the market are the factors that are likely to drive the Spinal Cord Stimulators (SCS) market. Several reports have been released annually, mentioning that significant portions of the population in the European Union and the United States (including in the developed market) suffer through more than one chronic disorder, such as cardiovascular disorders, neurological disorder, cancer, gastrointestinal disorders for a prolonged period, thus there is an enormous potential for Spinal Cord Stimulators (SCS) market growth. Also, rising spinal diseases are one of the leading chronic diseases in the European region lead to an increase in demand for Spinal Cord Stimulators (SCS). For instance, according to a study published in Scientific Reports in 2021, degenerative changes develop over time; the increased prevalence of degenerative spine pathology with age is therefore expected. Thus, early diagnosis of these diseases for effective and efficient management can propel the Spinal Cord Stimulators (SCS) market in the region.
