A gastrointestinal disease affects the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, the passage that runs from the mouth to the anus. Common GI disorders include irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), acid reflux, indigestion, colon cancer, and hemorrhoids. According to the data published by International Foundation for Gastrointestinal Disorders, among all irritable bowel syndrome patients, ~40% of people have mild IBS, ~35% have moderate IBS, and ~25% have severe IBS. Certain factors such as food allergies, developing stages of gastroenteritis, sporadic colon movements, the abnormal composition of serotonin in the colon, and mild celiac disease are among the risk factors that cause irritable bowel syndrome. Pancreatic diseases, liver diseases, and inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs) are often associated with nutritional difficulties and require adequate nutrition to support medical treatment. To overcome with nutritional difficulties among these diseases has increased the use of gastric buttons and driving the growth of gastric buttons market.

The gastrostomy button has recently been used as the enteral route of choice by many doctors and has the cosmetic advantage of being hidden under clothing. Once placed, it can be used for several days.

As chronic diseases are increasing faster, the adoption of the gastrostomy button for the administration of food and medicine has been progressing rapidly over the last five years, which is driving the gastric buttons market.

Offerings-Based Insights

Based on offerings, the gastric buttons market is bifurcated into product and accessories. In 2022, the product segment held the larger share of the market and is anticipated to register a higher CAGR during the forecast period. G-button is a skin-level low-profile device and can have either a mushroom or balloon tip as an internal bolster. Historically, G-tubes are primarily placed and subsequently replaced with G-buttons after 4–8 weeks when the tract has matured. This was later replaced by a primary G-button, which allows the placement of a low-profile device that can be untethered when patients do not require feeds. The G-button is a low-profiled gastrostomy replacement tube balloon catheter indicated for long-term use in a well-established gastrostomy tract or existing stoma for feeding and/or administration of medication or gastric decompression.

Usage-Based Insights

Based on usage, the gastric buttons market is fragmented into enteral nutrition, medication, fluids, and others. In 2022, the enteral nutrition segment held the largest share of the market and is anticipated to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period. Enteral nutrition refers to any method of feeding that uses the gastrointestinal (GI) tract to deliver nutrition and calories.

These tubes may have further subtypes depending on exactly where they end, the stomach or intestines. Enteral feeding is mainly used for patients suffering from stroke, cancer, gastrointestinal disorders, and neurological disorders to ensure proper nutrition for a better quality of life and higher chances of recovery. Therefore, increased use of enteral nutrition is expected to create demand for gastric buttons and drive the growth of gastric buttons market.
