Viscosupplementation is a treatment that helps reduce the joint pain and improves the functional condition of the osteoarthritic joint. It involves the injection of a thick fluid called hyaluronate into the knee. Hyaluronic acid is found in the viscous synovial fluid that lubricates the cartilage surfaces and protects the joints from shock. This acid is an elastic substance that is naturally secreted by mesothelial cells. Osteoarthritis—the most common type of arthritis—is characterized by loss of function and degeneration of cartilage and tissues that cover the ends of the bones in a joint. Rising global prevalence of osteoarthritis leads to high demand for osteoarthritis therapeutic products, including viscosupplementation. According to Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, over 30 million people in the U.S. suffered from osteoarthritis and around 10% people over 55 years suffered from knee pain in 2015.

According to National Center for Biotechnology Information, 10% men and 13% women of aged 60 years and older are suffering from osteoarthritis in the U.S. The prevalence of osteoarthritis is high in females as compared to men, due to menopause and hormonal imbalance. Factors that may lead to osteoarthritis are knee injury, overweight, obesity, muscle weakness, repetitive unnatural strain on joints, loss of bone density, and joint laxity, among others. Thus, growing prevalence of this disease is the major factor contributing towards growth of the overall viscosupplementation market.
Viscosupplementation market taxonomy On the basis of treatment, the global viscosupplementation market is classified into the following by Three-injection cycle,Five-injection cycle,Single-injection cycle,.

Three injection-cycle is the largest segment in terms of revenue contribution towards the global viscosupplementation market. Low cost of the three-injection cycle products than single-injection cycle products and shorter treatment period as compared to five-injection cycle are some of the major factors contributing toward its large share.
