Driver: Shift from Parenteral to Enteral Nutrition

Enteral nutrition is more physiological, with fewer complications as compared to parenteral nutrition. The major advantage of enteral nutrition is the maintenance of the GI mucosal barrier, stimulating intestinal blood flow. Enteral administration also helps in maintaining small intestine mass and pancreatic functions, improves healing & recovery, reduces muscle catabolism, and lowers the risk of infection and contamination. According to an article published in the German Medical Science journal, major septic complications affect only 3% of patients on enteral nutrition as compared to over 20% of those on parenteral nutrition.

Technological advancements have also led to the development of compact and portable enteral feeding pumps, which are constructed using materials that prevent cracking in high-stress applications. Advanced features in pumps include appropriate programming options, programmed flushing intervals, multiple language options, occlusion pressure alarm options, history of previous feed rates, and screen and program lock-out features to prevent manipulation.

The oncology segment to accounted for the largest share in Enteral Feeding Devices Market:

The oncology segment accounted for the largest share of the global market. The increase in the prevalence of various types of cancers, especially head and neck cancers, cancers of the gastrointestinal system, lung cancer, and liver cancer, is expected to play a major role in the higher adoption of enteral feeding devices used to provide clinical nutrition to cancer patients.
