In 2023, hospital discharges for gonarthrosis in Germany stood at a baseline, allowing for analysis of forecasted data starting from 2024. From 2024 to 2028, discharges are expected to increase marginally from 379.9 to 381.0 discharges per hundred thousand persons. The year-on-year growth is minimal, indicating steady demand without significant fluctuations.
