A key factor shaping the market is the growing advancements in devices. Enteral feeding devices comprise smart pump technology with features such as dose accuracy, flow rate control, and alarm systems. The main advantage of these pumps is that they can also wirelessly connect to healthcare provider systems for real-time monitoring and data exchange, thereby ensuring precise delivery and minimizing the risk of errors.
Moreover, one of the main advancements includes devices with built-in technologies to verify proper tube placement thereby helping in preventing misplacements and reducing the risk of complications like aspiration. Hence, such factors are expected to positively impact the market. Therefore, it is expected to drive the market growth during the forecast period.
Frequent product recalls are one of the key challenges hindering the market growth. There has been a significant increase in frequent product recalls in the medical equipment industry due to safety or functionality issues. Therefore, the medical equipment needs to be checked, adjusted, or fixed to ensure that it does not fail unexpectedly or violate regulatory guidelines.
Moreover, recalls are done by medical equipment manufacturers to inspect and repair them so that they do not cause serious health issues in patients. For instance, in May 2022, the US FDA recalled the Cortrak*2 enteral access system for the risk of misplaced enteral tubes manufactured by Avanos Medical. Hence, such factors are negatively impacting the market which in turn will hinder the market growth during the forecast period.
