What Are The Key Drivers Fueling Growth In The Enteral Feeding Devices Market?
The enteral feeding devices market is projected to see growth due to an increase in preterm births. Preterm births refer to those that happen before the 37th week of pregnancy and often require the use of enteral feeding devices to immediately supplement breast milk for these early-born babies. The rise in preterm births has been attributed to occurrences such as multiple pregnancies, adolescent pregnancy rates, early caesarean deliveries, unnecessary inductions, infections, and chronic health conditions like diabetes and high blood pressure. For example, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, a US-based public health agency, reported in May 2022 that the preterm birth rate rose by 4% in 2021, hitting 10.48%. As a result, this increase in preterm births fuels the growth of the enteral feeding device market.
