Global U.S. Medical Foods Market Growth Accelerated by Advanced Protein Technology

Surging demand for disposable medical devices such as disposable intravenous (IV) tubes is anticipated to emerge as one of the leading drivers for the U.S. medical plastic market in 2020 to 2030.

Low cost, high durability, breathability, biocompatibility, lower weights, chemical resistance, and sterilization capability of medical grade plastics are key factors favoring the development of the U.S. medical plastic market.Polypropylene Segment in U.S. Medical Plastic Market to Expand Rapidly in the Near FutureSegments in the U.S. medical plastic market based by the type of product includes polyvinyl chloride, polypropylene, engineering plastics, biodegradable plastic, polylactic acid, polyethylene, polystyrene, silicone, and polycarbonates.

Excellent properties of polyvinyl chloride, such as lightweight, toughness, abrasion resistance, and excellent mechanical strength makes it a lucrative commodity in U.S. medical plastic market, especially for the production of disposable medical devices.

Polypropylene (PP) segment is anticipated to expand at a high rate in the U.S. medical plastic market in coming years owing to high resistance of PP to acids, electrolytes, cracking, and organic solvents.

High demand for medical disposables such as gowns, shoe covers, gloves, respirators, masks, and medical bags was witnessed during the pandemic.

Increasing cases of COVID-19 in the United States are also anticipated to create ample opportunities for the expansion of the U.S. medical plastic market in near future.Products in the U.S. medical plastic market are used to manufacture a wide variety of medical products and equipment such as dental tools, drug delivery devices, medical bags, surgical tools, catheters and syringes, diagnostic instruments, and implants, among others.

According to the report, the global medical foods market was valued at US$ 18 Bn in 2018 and is projected to grow at a rapid pace from 2019 to 2027.

The current opinion among the public is that medical foods have the therapeutic potential to prevent and treat a long list of disorders.

The prevailing belief is that it is mainly young people that use medical food products.

The distinctive nutritional requirements associated with a disease reflect the overall amount a healthy person requires to sustain life or preserve homeostasis, modified for the distinctive changes in the patient's nutritional needs as a result of the disease process's effects on absorption, metabolism, and excretion.Request Brochure – https://www.transparencymarketresearch.com/sample/sample.php?flag=B_id=45447Shift to Enteral Nutrition to Drive Medical Foods MarketThe nutrition administration has seen a change in the trend from parenteral feed absorption to enteral feeding (absorption through the gastrointestinal tract) methods such as intravenous administration.

Enteral administration is better than parenteral administration due to low chance of contamination and physiological advantages such as retaining small intestine mass and pancreatic function.

Nutrients or medical foods can be delivered to the body in various formats such as capsules or tablets instead of sterile liquids or rehydratable powders, owing to technological advances such as the availability of chemical constituents to allow microencapsulation.Powder Type to Lead Global MarketIn terms of product type, the global medical foods market has been classified into pills, powder, liquids, and others.
