TechNavio recognizes the following companies as the key players in the Global Enteral Feeding Devices Market: Abbott Laboratories, Covidien plc, Fresenius Kabi AG, and Moog Inc.
Commenting on the report, an analyst from TechNavio’s team said: “Currently, the increasing use of low-profile feeding tubes is replacing standard G-tubes used for providing enteral nutrition. Low-profile tubes provide feeds to patients directly through the abdomen. They terminate at skin level, are more easily hidden, and incur fewer accidental removals than G-tubes which have longer length of exposed tubing. Moreover, low-profile tubes with balloon can be replaced at home without the need for anesthetic or hospital admission.”
According to the report, one of the main drivers in this market is the increase in rate of premature births. Preterm infants are not able to control and coordinate sucking, swallowing or breathing thus, generating the need for enteral feeding devices to provide them with sufficient nutritional requirements for growth and development.
Further, the report states that one of the major challenges in the market is the complications with enteral feeding tubes such as tube blockage, aspiration pneumonia, and contamination of feed.
The report also includes a discussion of the other vendors operating in this market. The other vendors in the market are Nestlé HealthCare Nutrition Inc., Amsino International Inc., Applied Medical Technology Inc., Caesarea Medical Electronics, CORPAK MedSystems Inc., and Vygon Corp.
