Of these devices, eight are in active development, while the remaining 15 are in an inactive stage of development. There are five products in the early stages of development, and the remaining three are in the late stages of development.

Adult feeding tubes are tubular devices used to administer nutrients to adult patients who can’t otherwise obtain them through their natural digestive system, for a large variety of reasons including (but not limited to) neurological problems leading to difficulty swallowing, certain heart conditions, certain types of cancer, and more. Feeding tubes can be placed by numerous methods, including endoscopically and via open surgery. There are four main types of feeding tubes, classified based on where they are placed in the body: Gastrostomy Tubes, Gastrojejunostomy Tubes, Jejunostomy Tubes, and Nasogastric and Nasoenteric Feeding Tubes. One unit refers to one adult feeding tube.

Innovations in the medical devices sector are linked to the development of new approaches, processes, or technologies for treating, diagnosing, and managing disease in response to demand from healthcare for better patient outcomes and reduce healthcare costs.

Based on an analysis of GlobalData’s Medical Intelligence Center pipeline product database, these actively developed Adult Feeding Tubes pipeline devices are all expected to be approved within the next ten years.

Currently, private organizations, public entities and institutions are working on the development of Adult Feeding Tubes devices. Overall, most of these Adult Feeding Tubes pipeline devices are being developed by private entities.

Key players involved in the active development of Adult Feeding Tubes include Silmag, TheraNova, TrusTECH, University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus, University of Florida, University of Hull, University of Kansas, University of Limerick, University of Michigan and University of Michigan Pediatric Device Consortium.
