In 2023, the number of total knee replacement procedures performed on in-patients in Germany was 194.82 thousand. Forecasted data indicate a steady increase from 196.37 thousand in 2024 to 203.47 thousand by 2028. Year-on-year growth remains relatively stable, averaging around 0.9% annually. Over the five-year period, this signifies a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of approximately 0.9%, reflecting consistent, albeit moderate, growth.
Future trends to watch for include advances in surgical technology, increasing demand due to an aging population, and potential impacts of healthcare policy changes. These factors could influence both the volume and nature of future knee replacement procedures.
