Market Overview

The Japan Enteral Feeding Devices Market Size refers to medical machines that are used to give onsite nutrition via the digestive system for people who are not able to eat food by mouth due to various medical reasons, surgery, or prolonged illness. These machines comprise pumps, tubes, sets, syringes, and disposables for feeding, which are quite common in Japan's hospitals, long-term care facilities, and home healthcare. The market is also characterized by small, easily transportable pumps and feeding solutions that can be tailored to the user's preference. Furthermore, government programs aimed at better health care system and patient safety, including the provision of homecare nutrition programs, are also among the factors that promote the growth of the market. Despite hospitals still being the major users of these devices, their usage in home care is increasing as a result of shorter hospital stays and improved caregiver training. Moreover, the technological advancements in precision, infection control, and patient comfort are also prominent factors that are contributing to the growth of this market.

The Japanese Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare (MHLW) is constantly revising its guidelines for medical devices, also covering enteral nutrition systems, to guarantee safety and quality.

The Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare (MHLW) implements integrated community care systems that facilitate home-based medical treatment and, among others, nutritional therapy, as well as other things. Moreover, the long-term care insurance programs supported by the government and the stringent regulations for the medical devices assure the quality and safety of the enteral feeding devices that are used in hospitals and clinics; thus, their widespread use is made possible through the adoption of these devices in healthcare facilities.
