A wheelchair is a specific medical apparatus which assists a person who is incapacitated or has very limited ability to walk. Wheelchairs allow people to enhance their independence and mobility by being pushed manually or driven automatically. The prevalence of physical disability in adults and children on a global scale is increasing rapidly. The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that 15% of people worldwide are disabled in some way as of 2018. Wheelchair demand is also anticipated to increase throughout the projection period due to the world's ageing population. During the projected period, wheelchair technology is expected to continue to progress and become more widely known, which will drive market growth. 

Alongside this, a growing number of player product launches and advantageous reimbursement practices are anticipated to fuel market expansion throughout the course of the forecast year.
