Segments - Brain Implants Market by Applications (Depression, Essential Tremor, Chronic Pain, Epilepsy, Parkinson’s Disease, and Alzheimer’s Disease), Products (Vagus Nerve Stimulator, Deep Brain Stimulator, and Spinal Cord Stimulator), and Regions (Asia Pacific, North America, Latin America, Europe, and Middle East & Africa) - Global Industry Analysis, Growth, Share, Size, Trends, and Forecast 2021 – 2028
The global brain implants market size was valued at USD 4.5 billion in 2020 and is projected to reach USD 9.05 billion by 2028, expanding at a CAGR of 8.98 % during the forecast period, 2021–2028. The growth of the market is attributed to the increasing awareness regarding brain implant benefits, and positive research outcomes.
Brain implants are a type of neural device that is implanted on the surface or cortex of the brain to create a connection between the nervous system and microchips. These implants are intended to aid in the treatment of brain injury. These are developed for those who have had a stroke or experienced a brain injury. These implants aid in the enhancement of brain functions, such as memory, senses, and muscular motions. Brain implants are also utilized to capture and study brain activity for research purposes. These brain implants are attached to the cortex of the brain or put on the brain surface, such as over gyri and sulci. When the brain becomes dysfunctional due to numerous factors, such as head injuries or stroke, brain implants are applied. Animals with brain implants are frequently used in scientific study.
The COVID-19 pandemic outbreak had negative impact on the market. During the pandemic, the demand for brain implants were significantly less owing to the lockdown imposed by governments globally. The market is expected to recover soon as emergency lockdown is lifted by the government gradually and demand is expected to spur during the projected period.

Based on applications, the global brain implants market is divided into depression, essential tremor, chronic pain, epilepsy, Parkinson’s disease, and Alzheimer’s disease. The chronic pain segment is expected to grow at a rapid pace during the forecast period owing to the increase in the incidence related to chronic pain, which created clinical urgency for incorporating long-term solutions. However, the Parkinson’s disease segment is anticipated to hold a key share of the market in the coming years due to the growing geriatric population, which is more susceptible to diseases like Parkinson's and Alzheimer's.
On the basis of products, the market is segregated into vagus nerve stimulator, deep brain stimulator, and spinal cord stimulator. The deep brain stimulator segment is projected to expand at a considerable CAGR during the forecast period attributed to the growing adoption for treatment of numerous neurological disorders including epilepsy, essential tremor, Parkinson’s diseases, obsessive-compulsive disorder, dystonia, and Alzheimer’s disease. On the other hand, the vagus nerve stimulator segment is anticipated to account for a major market share during the forecast period due to its application in the treatment of several disorders, such as fibromyalgia, anxiety, tinnitus, migraines, and obesity.
In terms of regions, the global brain implants market is classified as Asia Pacific, North America, Latin America, Europe, and Middle East & Africa. North America is expected to constitute a key share of the market during the projected period owing to the factors, such as the availability of highly skilled physicians, a rise in awareness about treatments, an increase in the prevalence of neurological disorders, and the presence of well-established healthcare facilities in the region. However, the market of Asia Pacific is anticipated to expand at a rapid pace during the forecast period attributed to the need for long-term and effective treatment solutions and rising number of awareness programs across the region.
