29 January 2020 - The global Enteral
Feeding Market size was estimated
at USD 1.8 billion in 2013 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.0% over the
forecast period. Growing prevalence of chronic diseases such as cancer,
diabetes, gastrointestinal, and neurological disorders, rising geriatric
population, and increasing number of preterm births are the key factors owing
to higher adoption of enteral feeding devices. Introduction of technologically
advanced products and increase in awareness about enteral nutrition is also
driving demand for such devices. For instance, introduction of new product
designs such as tri funnel replacements J-tube and G-tube and reserve balloon
designs. In 2015, Halyard Health launched MIC PEG enteral feeding tube kit.
Increasing acquisitions and distribution agreements is also one of the key
attributes anticipated to drive enteral feeding devices market. In 2014, Medela
acquired enteral feeding assets of Acacia, Inc. involved in marketing a line of
neonatal feeding devices.
The
expansion of homecare nutrition market and the advantages of enteral nutrition
over the parental nutrition is also propelling the market growth. With growing
age, the chance of a patient’s predisposition towards Parkinson’s diseases and
other neurological disorders increases, and thus is expected to drive the
demand for these devices. According to the United Nations World Ageing
Population 2015 report, it was estimated that between 2015 and 2030, the number
of people aged 60 years and above will grow by 56 percent, from 901 million to
1.4 billion and by 2050, the number is estimated to double its size, reaching
about 2.1 billion. The growing demand for comfort during hospitalization is
another factor expected to boost up the demand of feeding devices in the
market. However, stringent reimbursement policies and complications associated
with the use of these devices may hinder the further growth in the market.
Product Insights
Based
on the product types, the market is segmented as enteral feeding pumps, giving
sets, gastrostomy tubes, percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy devices, low
profile gastrostomy devices, and nasogastric tubes. In 2013, enteral feeding
pumps segment held the largest market share of about 61.5% owing to its
increased adoption in North America and Europe. Technological advancements
focused on the development of simpler and lighter enteral devices is
anticipated to drive demand for enteral tubes and pumps market in the coming
years. The nasogastric tube market was another major segment in terms of
revenue with a global share of USD 10.8% in 2013. These tubes are the used for
enteral feeding or nutrition via the nasal route.

factors attributing to the market growth include increasing ageing population,
growing incidences of pre-term birth, sophisticated healthcare infrastructure,
rising R&D activities and implementation of favorable regulations. Asia
pacific region is expected to be the fastest growing segment with a CAGR of
6.7% over the forecast period. The region offers huge untapped potential due to
low product penetration rate, unmet medical needs, and increasing healthcare
expenditure. Emerging economies like India, China and Brazil grows
significantly with rising population, growing incidences of chronic diseases,
and improving healthcare infrastructure is one of the crucial factors
anticipated to boost demand for such devices.
