Nasogastric Tube Market: Growth Drivers and Challenges

Growth Drivers

  • Higher Number of ICU Admissions – The people admitted to ICU, are in severe condition and face difficulties in consuming medicines orally. Nasogastric tubes are used to administer these medicines. In the United States, total non-COVID-19 admissions had risen to 16 percent of pre-pandemic baseline volume by late June/early July 2020.
  • Increasing Prevalence of Chronic Diseases–In certain chronic diseases, such as pancreatic disorders or conditions with excessive fluid accumulation in the abdomen, nasogastric tubes can be used to drain excess fluid or prevent aspiration. By draining fluid from the stomach or preventing its reflux into the lungs, nasogastric tubes can help manage symptoms, reduce the risk of complications, and improve the patient’s life.

Around 20% of children under the age of 18 are tube fed in America, and there are over 350 conditions that can need children to need nourishment using tube feeding.

    Challenges

Improper insertion, inadequate maintenance, or prolonged use of the tube can increase the risk of infection, such as bloodstream infections, and pneumonia. Moreover, it can also cause nasal and sinus problems, such as nasal congestion, rhinitis, or sinusitis.
