U.S. Clinical Nutrition Products Market Nears $1 Billion

The US market for clinical nutritional
supplements will surpass the $1 billion mark in the next few years, according
to a new study released today from Kalorama Information. Parenteral nutrition
products lead growth in the sector that is increasingly moving out of the
hospital and into alternative settings, such as the home.


The new study, The U.S. Market for Clinical Nutrition Products, explores
the new dynamism in the enteral and parenteral feeding market -- a dynamism
driven not by dramatic product improvements, but by clinical, demographic, and
ancillary technological changes.


"Unlike many other medical markets, advances in clinical nutrition have
not evolved from exciting new scientific breakthroughs," remarks James P.
Smith, Ph.D., the author of the report. "Instead, steady improvements in
formulations and clinical practice combined with the application of
technologies from other areas, such as pharmaceutical development, biosensors,
wireless communications, and more efficient pumps and controllers, is changing
the market in which these nutritionals compete."


The study examines clinical nutritional products, including oral enteral,
tube enteral, parenteral, and total parenteral nutrition products, in terms of
number of patients, products sales, and type of facility. The report also
provides analyses of the market forces shaping the clinical nutrition market,
including the effect the consumer market is having on supplement development,
the changing face of clinical decision making and practice, the reimbursement
environment, and the demographic patterns that will define patient populations
in the future.
