Brachial Plexus Injury Market Research Report Information By Type (Avulsion, Rupture, Neurapraxia, Others), By Diagnosis (Clinical Examination, Electrodiagnostic, others), By Treatment (Therapy, Surgery), By Drugs (Nsaids, Anticonvulsants, others), By Indication (Trauma, Inflammation, others) - Forecast till 2032

Brachial Plexus Injury Market Scenario

The Brachial Plexus Injury Market is projected to reach USD 0.7 Billion by 2032 at 13.9% CAGR during the forecast period 2023-2032.The brachial plexus is a network of nerves formed by intercommunication between the ventral roots of the lower four cervical nerves and the first thoracic nerves. Plexus are responsible to pass nerve signals to all the muscles of upper extremity. Brachial plexus injury occurs when the nerves are stretched or compressed. In severe cases, the nerves may be torn away from the spinal cord. Minor brachial plexus injury may result due to sport injuries such as football. The injuries can be treated by surgical procedure that would help to restore the functions of the nerves.

Increase in number of road accidents and sport injuries, availability of treatment options and growing demand for sports medicine are major drivers for the growth of this market. Furthermore, increase in the participation of adults in high energy sports also boost the market growth. Presence of large number of market players may restrict the entry of new players.
