The neonatal infants enteral feeding devices market size has grown steadily in recent years. It will grow from $2.16 billion in 2024 to $2.25 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 3.9%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to increasing premature birth rates, rising incidences of neonatal disorders, growing demand for specialized neonatal care, and expanding healthcare infrastructure.
The neonatal infants enteral feeding devices market size is expected to see steady growth in the next few years. It will grow to $2.58 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 3.5%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing adoption of enteral nutrition in neonatal intensive care units, rising investments in healthcare infrastructure in emerging markets, growing awareness about the benefits of enteral feeding in neonates, expanding applications of enteral feeding devices in homecare settings, and advancements in enteral feeding technology for improved patient outcomes. Major trends in the forecast period include technological advancements, miniaturization of enteral feeding devices, integration of smart technology for remote monitoring, development of specialized enteral formulas for neonates, emphasis on infection prevention and control measures, and personalized nutrition solutions for individualized care.
The increasing prevalence of preterm birth is expected to drive the growth of the neonatal infant enteral feeding devices market in the coming years. Preterm birth refers to babies born before completing 37 weeks of gestation, which can result in various health complications due to incomplete development. Factors contributing to preterm births include rising maternal age, lifestyle choices, medical interventions like assisted reproductive technologies, maternal health issues, and environmental influences. Neonatal infant enteral feeding devices are used in these cases to deliver vital nutrition directly into the stomach or intestines of premature infants who are unable to feed orally, supporting their growth and development. For example, in May 2024, the Office for National Statistics, a UK-based governmental body, reported a slight increase in the percentage of preterm live births from 7.5% in 2021 to 7.9% in 2022. As a result, the growing incidence of preterm birth is contributing to the expansion of the neonatal infant enteral feeding devices market.
The rising number of neonatal admissions is expected to fuel the expansion of the neonatal infant enteral feeding devices market. Neonatal admissions involve hospitalization or admission of newborn infants, typically within the first 28 days of life, for medical care and monitoring. Neonatal infant enteral feeding devices are instrumental in providing specialized medical interventions and monitoring for premature or critically ill infants, addressing their immediate health requirements and enhancing their chances of survival and healthy development. For instance, according to the American Academy of Pediatrics in October 2023, the percentage of infants classified as late preterm (LPT) and low birth weight (LBW) receiving exclusive care in the nursery increased from 83.9% to 88.8% due to special circumstances, highlighting the growing demand for neonatal infant enteral feeding devices.
Major companies in the neonatal infant enteral feeding devices market are focusing on developing products with advanced technologies such as real-time assessment technology to monitor feeding and ensure optimal nutrition, thereby mitigating the risk of complications. Real-time assessment technology enhances feeding precision, safety, early issue detection, data-driven decision-making, parental involvement, and overall efficiency in neonatal care. For example, in August 2023, Cardinal Health launched its next-generation NTrainer System 2.0, a medical device aimed at helping premature and newborn infants develop oral coordination skills necessary for transitioning to independent feeding faster. This FDA Class II biofeedback device utilizes real-time assessment technology to provide clinicians with objective data to track an infant's progress in developing pre-feeding skills.

Neonatal infants' enteral feeding devices are specialized medical tools engineered specifically for delivering enteral nutrition to premature or critically ill newborns who are unable to feed orally. These devices play a crucial role in administering vital nutrients, fluids, and medications directly into the gastrointestinal tract of neonates, thereby facilitating their growth, development, and recovery within the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) or special care nursery.
The primary products in this category include gastrostomy tubes, jejunostomy tubes, duodenostomy tubes, nasal feeding tubes, and oropharyngeal feeding tubes. Gastrostomy tubes, for instance, are medical instruments inserted through the abdomen into the stomach, providing essential nutrition and medication to individuals who cannot consume food orally due to medical conditions. These tubes are manufactured from various materials such as silicone, polyurethane, and polyvinyl chloride, available in different sizes tailored for both preterm and full-term infants. They find utility across various settings including clinics, hospitals, ambulatory care facilities, home use, and others.
