    Three-Pin Skull Clamp Segment, by Product to Account Larger Share in Skull Clamp Market during 2023-2031

    According to our new research study on " Skull Clamp Market Forecast to 2031 - Global Analysis - by Product Type, Material, Application, Accessories, End User, and Geography," the market was valued at US$ 2,097.15 million in 2023 and is projected to reach US$ 4,337.31 million by 2031; it is expected to register a CAGR of 9.6% during 2023-2031. The increasing number of brain and spinal surgeries and the rising number of traumatic brain injury cases drive the market growth. However, the growing number of injuries caused by skull clamps hampers the market growth. The surgical robot innovation and adoption are expected to bring new skull clamp market trends in the coming years.

    Brain conditions are complex to identify, and ~20% of patients remain unaware of their symptoms. The use of robotics is becoming increasingly prevalent in abdominal surgery, The technology is further being explored for its potential use in minimally invasive brain surgeries. Robotic surgeries allow surgeons to perform complicated procedures with more ease, precision, and control as compared to traditional ones. In addition, there is an increasing emphasis on minimally invasive surgeries and a focus on improving surgical outcomes, which drives traction toward robot-assisted surgeries. Robots allow surgeons to venture deep into the brain through tiny incisions. Several government authorities and organizations are offering financial aid and platforms for researchers to improve the landscape of brain diagnosis and treatment. The companies are also focused on encouraging the adoption of advanced technologies, such as robotics, in neurosurgeries through research and development activities.

    The American Stroke Association's International Stroke Conference 2020 emphasized using robots to treat brain aneurysms, as they could improve the accuracy of surgeries. Further, WPI Automation and Interventional Medicine Laboratory have developed a steady hand-guided aneurysm clip applier. It can provide high-precision motion while allowing neurosurgeons to maintain contact with a surgical instrument. Force sensors are incorporated between the instrument and the robot; surgeons use force to guide the movement of connected robots. Force scaling, tremor reduction, and virtual fixtures are a few features of robotic surgeries that enhance control in surgeries. This aneurysm clip applier system was presented at the CNS Conference in Denver, Colorado, where it received good feedback from participants.

    The acceptance of robotic techniques for treating brain diseases is expected to increase due to their ability to improve overall performance with high accuracy, greater flexibility, and accelerated recovery. Furthermore, the techniques are expected to streamline processes and workflows, along with improving patient experience and delivering superior surgical outcomes. Thus, advancements in robotics are likely to bring new trends to neurosurgery, which would positively impact the skull clamp market in the coming years.

    The skull clamp market, in terms of product, is segmented into three-pin skull clamp, four-pin skull clamp, and two-pin skull clamp. The three-pin skull clamp segment held the largest market share in 2023. A three-pin skull clamp includes a C-shaped frame that partially encircles the head of the patient, with a spring-loaded single skull pin assembly located at one end of the frame and adapted to engage the head of the patient with a desired engagement force and two-spaced skull pins mounted to a rocker arm located at an opposite end of the frame. Each of the rocker arm skull pins resides in operative contact with an indicator cap held by a spring-loaded pin carrier assembly, the indicator cap being movable relative to the rest of the pin carrier assembly in response to the engagement force applied to the corresponding skull pin by the head of the patient. The 3-pin skull clamp is the most popular pin-type head frame and is equipped with a force gauge integrated into the torque screw on the side with one pin.

    Based on application, the global skull clamp market is divided into surgery and medical imaging. The surgery segment held a larger share in the skull clamp market in 2023.

    Based on material, the global skull clamp market is segmented into stainless steel, aluminum alloy, titanium, and radiolucent. In 2023, the stainless steel segment is likely to hold the largest share of the market. The skull clamp and all its parts are usually fabricated from stainless steel, which attaches to the table and connects with the arm. Stainless steel is a strong, durable, and easy-to-manufacture material. Therefore, it is chosen to be the primary material to fabricate the skull clamp. Stainless steel is considered one of the most environmentally friendly materials. Stainless steel is easy to manufacture, theoretically 100% recyclable, has long-term life, and can be used in different environments.

    Based on accessories, the global skull clamp market is segmented into skull pins, headrest, and others. In 2023, the skull pins segment is likely to hold the largest share of the market. A skull pin assembly used with a skull clamp includes a skull pin that is slidable into contact with the head of a patient. A pin load applicator is removably connectable to the skull pin assembly and includes a loading shaft that can apply a force against the inner end of the skull pin. The pin load applicator also has a biasing element operable to apply a force on the loading shaft that, in turn, transfers the force to the skull pin.

    The disposable adult skull pins for non-imaging applications guarantee a precise, secure, and rigid fixation. Single use of this product is essential for safe and effective treatment, as repeated use may reduce the performance and safety of the pin due to wear of the pin tip.

    Reusable skull pins can be used in non-imaging applications. Design of these pins guarantees a secure, precise, and rigid fixation. To differentiate them easily, they are color coded. The reusable skull pins are stored in sterile packaging, and the pins are placed into the receptacles of the skull clamp and fixated on the head during surgery.

    Based on end user, the skull clamp market is divided into hospitals, specialty clinics, and ambulatory surgical centers. In 2023, the hospitals segment is likely to hold the largest share of the market.

    Black Forest Medical Group, Integra LifeSciences Holdings Corp, TeDan Surgical Innovations, Barrfab Industria Commerce Import and Export of Hospital Equipment Ltda, Herbert Thailand Co Ltd, Medifa GmbH & Co KG, Micromar Industria e Com Ltda, Schaerer Medical AG, Becton Dickinson and Co, and Baxter International Inc are among the leading companies operating in the global skull clamp market.

    Companies operating in the skull clamp market adopt various organic and inorganic strategies. Organic strategies mainly include product launches and product approvals. Acquisitions, collaborations, and partnerships are among the inorganic growth strategies witnessed in the skull clamp market. These growth strategies allow the market players to expand their businesses and enhance their geographic presence, thereby contributing to the overall skull clamp market growth. Further, acquisition and partnership strategies help them strengthen their customer base and expand their product portfolios.
