Hydroxyapatite-coated
femoral components define as hard tissue implant material coated by
hydroxyapatite (HA) on femur components with titanium as a base and physically
or chemically. HA is a naturally mineral form of calcium apatite. The coating
is plasma-sprayed which is biocompatible and has osteoconductive properties
contributing to early fixation of total joint prostheses. This coating enhances
endosteal bone in growth to prosthesis, consequently improving the stability of
femoral stem & resulting in better clinical or radiological outcomes. HA
coated femoral components are used in total hip arthroplasty (THA). They are
also used in various clinical dental practices for instance the reconstruction
of periodontal bone defects; filling bone defects after apicoectomy, after
cystectomy, and after the loss of dental implants; and mounting the thickness
of atrophic alveolar ridges. It improves implant in-growth & long-term
stability with the components exhibiting preferable bone attachment on micro
textured areas & little bone on the smoother areas. The coating
microstructure are different between three coatings which persists to be
prosthesis surface, ranging from fully crystalline coatings made with vacuum
plasma spraying to less crystalline coatings pretend by air plasma spraying.
The
major benefits includes the attainment of early stability, accelerated bone on
growth of the surface of prosthesis are further reduced as micro-motion of the
prosthesis in early post-operative period. Apart from benefits, few of the
challenges impacting the market include potential for delamination and high
cost of the HA coating, which results in third-body wear of polyethylene
acetabular cup or subsequent osteolysis &loosening of the prosthesis.
According
to study, “Global
Hydroxyapatite-coated Femoral Components Market 2019 by Manufacturers, Regions,
Type and Application, Forecast to 2024” key companies currently
operating in the global hydroxyapatite-coated femoral components market
areZimmer Biomet, Nano Interface Technology, Stryker, Smith & Nephew, DePuy
Synthes, Exactech, MicroPort, Kycera Medical. The key vendors completely focus
over the improvement in the ground breaking technologies and listening to the
consumer’s preferences; which directs to the vast & continuous increase in
market growth rate.
Based
on type, globalhydroxyapatite-coated femoral components market is segmented
into revision and primary. Based on coating technique, market is split into
sputter coating, dips coating, hot pressing & hot isostatic pressing
coating, pulsed laser deposition coating, thermal spraying coating,
electrophoretic deposition coating and sol-gel coating. Based on end-users,
market is categorized into clinic and hospitals.
The
global hydroxyapatite-coated femoral components market is driven by growing
demand for implants, followed by continuous research & development (R&D)
activities to boost the applicability of hap in the medical industry, rising
disposable income and rise in geriatric population. However, unmet performance
benchmark & increasing popularity of bioresorbable composites and
unfavorable healthcare reforms are expected to remain hampering factors of the
market. In addition, easy availability of raw materials and growing healthcare
industry are few of the areas providing the major opportunity to the market.
In
2019, value of global hydroxyapatite-coated femoral components market is
reached at US $1110 million and it is predicted that it will be reached at US
$1600 million, by 2024. It is estimated that the over the forecast period of
market to be bright due to rapid growth in the medical tourism, followed by rapid
developing infrastructure of the medical sector and increasing awareness among
masses associated with the cost-effective treatments.
