Impact of covid-19 on Knee Replacement Market-

Many people with arthritis are unable to obtain treatment owing to hospitals postponing or delaying surgeries and other treatments, such as arthroplasty and other knee replacement  surgeries, because to the COVID-19 epidemic. There is also worry that individuals with moderate arthritis who require surgery soon may have come to the conclusion that the danger of getting COVID-19 outweighs the advantages of arthroplasty.

According to a research conducted by the University of Iowa in the United States, the COVID-19 pandemic is having a significant influence on hip and knee arthroplasty surgery volume, which might result in significant financial loss. According to the same study, 30,000 primary and 3,000 revision total hip arthroplasty and total knee arthroplasty treatments will be cancelled each week if the limitations are not lifted.
