Gait Trainer Market Segment Analysis-Drivers
Increasing Prevalence of Motor Disability:
Rising prevalence for motor disability is predicted to accelerate the market for Gait Trainer. The partial or complete loss of control of a part of the body, usually limbs, is motor disability. This causes weakening of the muscle, paraplegia, lack of muscle control. It is often noticed in neurological conditions like Muscle sclerosis, Cerebral palsy, Stroke, Parkinson’s disease. Lock-in syndrome is considered as an extreme form of motor impairment where almost all muscles lose their voluntary control. It is caused by a damage in lower portion of brain and brain stream by a stroke or other reasons. Muscle sclerosis is another factor causing motor impairment. According to National Multiple Sclerosis Society, globally around 2.3 million individuals are diagnosed of muscle sclerosis. Where in a recent study in the US funded by National Muscle Sclerosis Society, it is predicted that around 1 million individual aged 18 live with a diagnosis of muscle sclerosis. Additionally, people with alzheimer's and dementia are more likely to have balance issues, poor gait abilities, and other cognitive issues. One in ten individuals will develop Alzheimer's disease, as per the Alzheimer's Association . In 2019, about 5.8 million people in the United States have been diagnosed with the Alzheimer's disease.
