Orthopedic power tools are used in the treatment and prevention of impairments caused by physical injuries, or birth-related disorders regarding musculoskeletal systems. Orthopedic power tools are devices manufactured for carrying out specific actions such as fixing implants, and drilling in surgical procedures. These are electrically operated devices that facilitate surgeons in performing surgeries with high precision and in lesser time. Large bone power tools, small bone power tools, and high speed power tools are included in the orthopedic power tools currently available in the orthopedic power tools market.
Orthopedic power tools market remains influenced by prevalence of minimally invasive surgeries, which create demand for treating various disorders such as neurosurgical, spinal and orthopedic diseases. Minimally invasive surgeries require orthopedic power tools, which carry out surgeries with a miniscule incision, lower the risk of bleeding, have shorter hospital stay post-surgery, and offer faster recovery. Growth of orthopedic power tools market is driven by increased adoption of robotic surgery, owing to limited availability of skilled surgeons worldwide. Surgical robots with multiple arms are foraying into healthcare sector with their high surgical efficiency, with the capability of handling various equipment at the same time, thereby driving growth of orthopedic power tools market. However, hospital consolidation, cost-containment pressures, medical device excise taxes, and unfavorable reimbursement policies are some factors expected to restrain expansion of orthopedic power tools market.

Owing to these factors, sales of single-use power tools are projected to register the fastest expansion in the orthopedic power tools market through 2026, based on modality.
Large bone power tools will remain most lucrative product in orthopedic power tools market, followed by high-speed power tools. These power tools find huge application in trauma-related surgeries, and knee & hip reconstruction surgeries. Compared to large bone and high-speed power tools, small bone power tools will account for a significantly lower revenue share of the market throughout the forecast period.
Orthopedic clinics and ambulatory surgical centers are projected to be the fastest expanding end-users in orthopedic power tools market. On the other hand, sales of orthopedic power tools in hospitals will register a relatively lower CAGR than that in orthopedic clinics and ambulatory surgical centers through 2026.
