REPRESENTATIVE SURVEY ON THE USE AND
BENEFITS OF MEDICAL AIDS IN EVERYDAY LIFE
In 2014 and 2019, the association eurocom commissioned the Institut
für Demoskopie Allensbach (Allensbach Institute for Public Opinion
Research) to conduct a representative population survey to examine the
use, benefits and product quality of medical aids. The results were clear
and underlined the high value of these products in conservative therapy.
In order to identify possible changes in usage – including those caused by
the COVID-19 pandemic – and subjectively perceived benefits, eurocom
commissioned the Institut für Demoskopie Allensbach to conduct
another survey in early 2023. Around 1,300 users (aged 16 and above) of
medically prescribed compression stockings, orthopaedic shoe insoles,
support bandages and orthoses were included in the survey. The results
of this latest representative survey confirm that medically prescribed
medical aids play a crucial, indispensable role in patients’ everyday lives
and that users continue to rate the benefits of these aids highly. For
the majority of the survey participants, medical aids were a good way
to overcome the restrictions and shortages in medical care during the
COVID-19 pandemic.
This publication is a summary of the extensive data from the latest
survey conducted in January and February 2023. Questions were
asked about product use, the participants’ assessment of benefits,
product quality, and the support and advice provided by doctors
and specialist shops. The survey design and data collection method
are explained on page 40. Further information on medical aids and
their use for relevant indications and clinical pictures can be found at
