The global medical exoskeleton market size is estimated to be USD 1.0 billion by 2026, from USD 0.2 billion in 2021, at a CAGR of 45.0%. The growth of this market is mainly driven by factors such as the increasing number of people with physical disabilities and subsequent growth in the demand for effective rehabilitation approaches; agreements and collaborations among companies and research organizations for the development of the exoskeleton technology, and increasing insurance coverage for medical exoskeletons in several countries driving the growth of the medical exoskeleton market. However, the high cost of medical exoskeletons may restrict market growth to a certain extent.

“The hardware segment is expected to account for the largest share 78.57% of the medical exoskeleton market in 2020.”

The devices segment is expected to hold the largest share 74.9% of the medical exoskeleton market in 2020. This is mainly due to the rising incidence of neurological, neurodegenerative, psychotic, and sleep disorders; the need for early diagnosis; the availability of innovative portable and wearable home-based monitoring devices; and increasing patient awareness.

“The lower extremity segment to register the highest growth rate in the forecast period.” 

In 2020, the lower extremity medical exoskeletons segment is expected to account for a larger share of 63.0% of the market. Lower extremity exoskeletons provide stability to paralyzed and geriatric patients and offer weight-bearing and locomotion capabilities. As a result, their adoption is higher in the rehabilitation of patients.

“North America to be the largest regional segment in the medical exoskeleton market during the forecast period.”

Based on the region, the global medical exoskeleton market is divided into North America, Europe, Asia, and the RoW. In 2020, North America is expected to dominate the market with a share of 44.42%. The growing geriatric population, increasing demand for self-assist exoskeletons, high prevalence of stroke, and growing number of spinal cord injuries (SCI) are the key factors driving the growth of the medical exoskeleton market in this region.
