Short-term Growth: From 2017 to 2022, the global enteral feeding devices market registered a CAGR of 4.6%. The enteral feeding devices market held nearly 20.0% of the overall gastrointestinal device market, which is, valued at USD 12.5 billion in 2021.
Patients with low voluntary intake, persistent neurological or mechanical dysphagia, or gut malfunction, as well as those who are severely sick, benefit greatly from enteral feeding devices.
Many patients who formerly required parenteral nutrition can now be administered successfully with enteral nutrition alone or in conjunction with parenteral nutrition. The surging gastrointestinal access methods, better delivery systems, and breakthroughs in enteral feeding formulae are driving the demand for enteral feeding devices.
Mid-term Growth: The enteral feeding devices market is shifting away from hospital-based care towards home-based enteral nutrition (HEN). Because of escalating hospital expenditures, clinicians treating patients who require long-term nutritional care are increasingly turning to HEN.
Patients with certain chronic diseases are not required to be admitted to hospitals for enteral feeding treatments. Various solutions, such as portable feeding pumps and ready-to-use enteral feeding supplies, are commercially available. Medical service providers offer services related to enteral feeding at home.

Gastrostomy buttons are low-profile gastrostomy devices that are growing in favor among G-tube users. Gastrostomy devices are especially well suited for children and active adults since the buttons are flush with the skin rather than protruding as a tube away from the body.
Despite the growing popularity of enteral feeding devices, currently, acceptable techniques include utilizing a surgical G-tube or PEG device to introduce a patient's initial G-tube.
The patient's tube can be replaced with a button device once the stoma has recovered. These advances are resulting in increased consumer satisfaction, which is creating an array of opportunities for the enteral feeding devices market ahead.
Companies interested in capitalizing on this growing market segment should start by developing a low-profile product for patient usage. Several companies, like Boston Scientific and Halyard Health, have already made the switch to one-step insertion kits for their button devices.
Principal Consultant
Physicians and key industry leaders indicated that an overall lack of patient education is negatively influencing the enteral feeding devices market. Many patients prefer to forego and effectively rule out enteral feeding as an option in some cases. Patients also lack an understanding of the benefits of prophylactic EN.
Lack of consumer awareness for procedures using enteral feeding devices limits the market space. Companies are trying to initiate legit campaigns to promote the use of enteral feeding devices.
Reimbursement can be a limiting factor affecting patients’ enteral feeding market growth. In developed nations such as the United States, Canada, Germany, France, the United Kingdom, and Japan, enteral nutrition treatment is covered by insurance. In underdeveloped nations spanning Asia Pacific, Latin America, and the Middle East, however, reimbursements for enteral feeding are minimal.
This provides a substantial hurdle to the broad adoption of enteral feeding. Furthermore, reduced government funding, high cost, and related reimbursement cuts for home healthcare services are likely to add to the issues encountered by enteral feeding device manufacturers in the forecast period.
