Market Trends of Mild Traumatic Brain Injury Treatment Industry
This section covers the major market trends shaping the Mild Traumatic Brain Injury Treatment Market according to our research experts:
Hospital is Expected to Hold Significant Market Share in the End User Segment
The therapy for mild traumatic brain injury treatment usually begins in the hospital and continues at an inpatient rehabilitation unit, a residential treatment facility, or through outpatient services. The type and duration of rehabilitation are different for everyone, depending on the severity of the brain injury and what part of the brain was injured. People with mild traumatic brain injuries may also have other injuries that need to be addressed.
Additional treatments in the emergency room or intensive care unit of a hospital generally focus on minimizing secondary damage due to inflammation, bleeding, or reduced oxygen supply to the brain.
North America Dominates the Market and Expected to do Same in the Forecast Period
Traumatic brain injury (TBI), also known as acquired brain injury, head injury, or brain injury, causes substantial disability and mortality in the American population. It occurs when a sudden trauma damages the brain and disrupts normal brain function. TBI often has profound physical, psychological, cognitive, emotional, and social effects on the lives of American people. Mild TBI appears to be vastly under-diagnosed in the setting of systemic trauma, even in trauma centers. According to the CDC, there were approximately 2.8 million TBI-related emergency department visits, hospitalizations, and deaths in the United States in 2015. Hence, the rising prevalence of MTBI is expected to drive the overall growth of the market across the entire region.
