Based on type, the pain management devices market is categorized into neurostimulation devices (transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) and spinal cord stimulation (SCS)), ablation devices (RF ablation and cryoablation), and analgesic infusion pumps (intrathecal and external infusion pumps). The neurostimulation devices segment is expected to account for the largest share of the market in 2016. This can majorly be attributed to the cost-effectiveness of neurostimulation devices, high efficacy of TENS and SCS devices in alleviating chronic pain, and availability of reimbursement for SCS therapy in developed countries.

On the basis of applications, the pain management devices market is segmented into neuropathic pain, cancer pain, facial pain and migraine, musculoskeletal pain, and other applications (pregnancy/labor and menstrual pain, sports injuries, post-operative pain, and trauma pain). The neuropathic pain segment is estimated to witness the highest growth during the forecast period, primarily due to the high prevalence of diseases resulting in neuropathic pain.
