Viscosupplementation Industry Analysis by Sales, Revenue, Production and Consumption from 2018-2026
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.
