The purpose of this study is to examine the market and usage status of veterinary orthopedic materials, and to propose revisions to the standards and specifications for these materials. A survey of 153 animal hospitals indicated that knee and fracture surgeries are the most common, utilizing products such as fracture fixation plates and surgical drills extensively. Nevertheless, due to the limited availability of animal-specific options, many hospitals resort to using orthopedic products designed for humans, raising concerns about their suitability and safety. A substantial portion of hospitals (42.5%) utilize human products because of their lower cost and perceived effectiveness. Moreover, 93 hospitals reported difficulties with the use of human orthopedic products due to the absence of animal-specific reference values, underscoring the necessity for appropriate guidelines. The supplier survey revealed a concentration on producing or importing vital products like screws and plates; however, inconsistencies in safety testing were observed. The study underscores the critical need to develop orthopedic devices specific to animals, establish veterinary reference values, and standardize safety assessments across the industry. These enhancements are vital to improve the safety, efficacy, and availability of veterinary orthopedic products, ultimately enhancing treatment outcomes for animals.
