Neurological devices, such as deep brain stimulation (DBS) or spinal cord stimulation (SCS), are used to diagnose, prevent, and treat disorders and conditions such as Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s disease, epilepsy, and pain management.
The prevalence of neurological disorders and the need for pain management has increased dramatically over recent decades due to the ageing population. In fact, GlobalData epidemiologists forecast an increase in diagnosed cases of Parkinson’s disease, with cases rising from 2.3 million in 2016 to 2.9 million in 2026, indicating an approximate annual growth rate of 2.52%.
