Brazil Enteral Nutrition Market to Witness Significant Growth with High Prevalence of Gastrointestinal Diseases


Enteral nutrition is a method of delivering nutrients directly to the small intestine for those suffering from stomach bowel obstruction, short bowel syndrome, Crohn's disease, and ulcerative colitis; or certain cancers. This method provides the body with all the essential nutrients needed by the small intestine to help maintain normal digestion and absorption of nutrients. If you are unable to eat sufficient amounts to obtain the nutrients that you require, your physician may recommend that tube feeding is performed. In this type of feeding, a feeding tube is inserted into your nose and connected to a tube that carries nutrition to your stomach.

According to Coherent Market Insights, Brazil enteral nutrition market expected to be valued at US$ 323.7 million in 2019 and is projected to exhibit a CAGR of 4.5% over the forecast period (2019–2027). Enteral nutrition is given via different types of tubes such as nasoenteric feeding tubes, gastrostomy feeding tubes, jejunostomy feeding tubes, and gastrostomy with jejunal adapter. Enteral nutrition tubes are usually made out of plastic or polypropylene, which is very durable and hygienic. The plastic is usually covered with a sterile membrane that prevents the plastic from absorbing liquids. The membranes are also useful for preventing transmission of harmful germs while inside the nose.

Enteral tube nutrition is indicated for patients who have a functioning gastrointestinal (GI) tract. While enteral nutrition is commonly used in the acute care setting, it can also be used for patients with chronic conditions that limit their ability to ingest liquids easily. Such patients include individuals with Crohn's disease, celiac disease, and certain types of kidney and bladder diseases. Thus, high prevalence of gastrointestinal diseases is also expected to drive growth of Brazil enteral nutrition market.
