Nasogastric Tube Market by Type (Dobhoff Tube, Levin Catheter, Moss Tube), Patient Group, End User and Geography - Global Industry Analysis, Opportunities and Forecast up to 2029

Nasogastric Tube Market Size

The global Nasogastric Tube market size was valued at $532.88 million in 2023, and is projected to reach $734.76 million by 2029, growing at a CAGR of 5.5% during the forecast period.

Nasogastric Tube Overview

A nasogastric tube (NG tube) is a medical device that is inserted through the nose and down the throat into the stomach. It is used for various medical purposes, primarily for feeding or delivering medications and fluids to patients who are unable to take them orally. The NG tube consists of a long, flexible tube made of rubber or plastic, with markings along its length to indicate the depth of insertion. It is typically secured in place and can be used for both short-term and long-term medical interventions.

Nasogastric Tube Market Trends

• The Nasogastric Tube market is expected to witness significant growth in the future due to the rise in prevalence of chronic diseases, increase in the number of preterm births, and surge in geriatric population base.

• Additionally, the rising prevalence of chronic ailments and advancements in the medical field are the prominent factors driving the growth of the Nasogastric Tube market demand.

• However, the side effects associated with nasogastric tube and the developmental delays are restraining the market growth.

• On the contrary, the rising incidences of hospitalization among both pediatric and elderly populace and rising consciousness among populace regarding enteral feeding are creating opportunities for the market growth.

Impact of COVID-19 on Nasogastric Tube Market

The impact of COVID-19 on the nasogastric tube market was mixed, with increased demand in critical care settings and disruptions in the supply chain. As healthcare systems adapted to the challenges posed by the pandemic, there was a shift in priorities and a focus on optimizing safety and patient care. The pandemic highlighted the importance of proper medical device usage and patient care, leading to increased awareness and training in healthcare settings regarding nasogastric tube management.

By End User, the Hospitals Segment is projected to be the Largest Segment in the Nasogastric Tube Market

The Hospitals segment is projected to be the largest segment in the Nasogastric Tube market during the forecast period. The increasing prevalence of ingestion and gastrointestinal issues among the elderly population is the primary driver behind the growth of the hospital segment. In cases of such health issues, crucial nutrients are administered through the enteral route, which leads to a rising demand for nasogastric tube feeding. The expansion of this segment is further fueled by the growing number of elderly individuals and the rising occurrence of chronic diseases across different regions.

By Geography, North America Region Holds the Dominant Position in the Market Revenue

North America region holds the dominant position in the market revenue due to the aging population, prevalence of certain medical conditions, and advanced healthcare infrastructure. The region has a relatively high prevalence of chronic diseases, such as cancer, neurological disorders, and gastrointestinal conditions. Nasogastric tubes are commonly used for patients with these conditions who have difficulty swallowing or require nutritional support. In addition, North America is known for its advanced healthcare facilities, including hospitals and long-term care centers, which frequently use nasogastric tubes for patient care and treatment. This market is expected to continue to grow as healthcare systems adapt to changing patient needs and technological advancements.
