Enteral feeding refers to intake of food nutrition taken through the mouth or through a tube that goes directly to the stomach or small intestine. In the medical setting, the term enteral feeding is most often used to mean tube feeding. Enteral feeding is utilised in a condition or injury that prevents a person eating a regular diet by mouth, but their GI tract is still able to function. Thus, being fed through a tube allows patient to receive nutrition and keep their GI tract working. These devices are commonly used to feed the specialized diets in elderly or bedridden patients suffering from chronic ailments, such as neurological disorders, cancer, gastrointestinal and inherited metabolic diseases. 

Enteral Feeding Devices Market Outlook

The major driving factors for the growth of the global Enteral Feeding Devices is growing geriatric population. Geriatric population is the largest consumer enteral feeding devices worldwide. 

As indicated by the U.S Department Statistics, the number of ageing populace is likely to cross 75 million by 2034 and 93 million by 2060. This statistics highlights the need of growing demand of enteral feeding devices, as this population possesses a high risk and susceptibility of this population group to develop chronic conditions that require enteral feeding. 

This risk of chronic disorders increases with age, especially after age 50 and only declines after the age of 80. As all these factors continue to lead the demand of the enteral feeding devices to treat nutrition deficiency associated with the chronic disorders, there is minor impact of economic downturn on the industry.  The global enteral devices market doesn’t show any signs of slowing down in 2019. Aging and growing populations, greater prevalence of chronic diseases, and exponential advances continue to increase the demand of the therapeutics .

In addition, increase in the number of preterm births, increasing prevalence of chronic diseases such as diabetes, cancer, gastrointestinal diseases, and neurological disorders coupled with growing awareness of enteral nutrition will also trigger the growth of this market.
