Enteral feeding devices technological advanced medical device used to deliver nutrition food directly to the stomach to the bedridden patient suffering from chronic diseases such as cancer and neurological disorder.
The increase in the cases of malnutrition and premature birth cases around the globe is a prime factor driving growth of the enteral feeding devices market. Moreover, the growing prevalence of chronic diseases such as cancer and cardiovascular disease is another key factor fostering the market growth of the enteral feeding devices. According to the World Health Organization, cancer is the second leading cause of death globally and is responsible for an estimated 9.6 million deaths in 2018. Globally, about 1 in 6 deaths occur due to cancer. Around 70% of deaths from cancer occur in low- and middle-income countries. Furthermore, increasing global expenditure on the healthcare sector for improving the patient care is further projected to augment the growth of the enteral feeding devices market.
From the geographical perspective, North America is projected to gain significant growth over the forecast period and this is attributed to the high presence of the geriatric population prone to chronic disease that leads to digestive ailments. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, there were 40.3 million U.S. residents 65 years and older in the 2010 Census and more than 54 million on July 1, 2019. Also, the rising number of surgical and minimally invasive procedures in the region is further expected to accelerate the regional market growth of the enteral feed device. According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) report, over 17.7 million cosmetic procedures and minimally-invasive cosmetic procedures were performed in the U.S. in 2018.
