Enteral feeding is a nutritional therapy that provides nutrients directly in the gastrointestinal tract of patients who are unable to swallow food or who cannot get enough nourishment by eating or drinking. Enteral feeding therapy involves the usage of feeding devices such as pumps and tubes. These medical devices deliver the medications and nutrients directly into the stomach, duodenum, or jejunum via either the nose, mouth, or the direct percutaneous route.

In addition, shift from parenteral nutrition to enteral nutrition are supporting the growth of the hospitals segment. However, the home care segment is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.1% during the forecast period.
Europe was the leading revenue contributor to the global enteral feeding devices market in 2019, and is expected to dominate the market during the forecast period. This is attributed to early approval of enteral feeding devices and high adoption of enteral feeding pumps in this region. However, Asia-Pacific is expected to grow at the highest CAGR of 6.2% during the study period, due to increase in affordability, surge in healthcare expenditure, and rise in awareness toward safe enteral feedings products.
