Personal Mobility Devices Market Size, Growth, Trends, Top Players & Future Outlook In Near Years
Personal
mobility devices include wheelchairs, scooters, bicycles, and
unicycles. Most of these devices are used by disabled people, who
have restricted mobility. A personal mobility device is designed for
use by single person. These devices can be manual or powered by
battery. Increasing number of geriatric population is expected to

estimated that 524 million people were aged 65 years or older that is
8% of the world's population and by 2050, it is expected to nearly
triple and reach 1.5 billion, representing 16% of the world's
population. This above statistics is expected favor growth of

Common problems faced by geriatric population
include instances of falling, due to vertigo or dizziness, chronic
diseases. According to World Health Organization (WHO), falls are the
second leading cause of accident or unintentional injury, which leads
to death of people worldwide, whereas adults aged above 65 years
suffer the greatest number of fatal falls. Additionally, in 2014,
around 27,000 older adults died because of falls; 2.8 million were
treated in emergency departments for fall-related injuries, and
around 800,000 of these patients were subsequently hospitalized,
according to Centers for Disease and Prevention (CDC) in the U.S.
Owing to these factors, demand for personal mobility devices is
increasing and this is expected to aid in growth of the market.
Rising number of disability cases along

personal mobility devices market
Rising number of disability cases, due to various
factors such as increasing number of road accidents, spinal cord
injuries, meningitis, and workplace injuries are expected to favor

Health Organization (WHO), around 10% people among overall disabled
people globally, require personal mobility devices for their daily
activities and physical movement.
As per the Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC), in 2013, over 53 million people in the U.S. were
suffering from some form of disability. Furthermore, the most common
type of disability found was mobility disability, which was around 1

million people aged 18 years and above are suffering from some
physical functioning disability and this number is expected to grow
