Short Bowel Syndrome Market - Global Size, Share, Trend Analysis, Opportunity and Forecast Report, 2019–2029, Segmented By Type (GLP-2, Growth Hormone, Glutamine); By Distribution Channel (Hospital Pharmacies, Retail Pharmacies); By Region (North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America, Middle East and Africa)
Global Short Bowel Syndrome Market Size Booming to Cross USD 2 Billion by 2029
Global short bowel syndrome (SBS) market is flourishing because of an increasing demand for SBS drugs due to the high cost of parenteral nutrition and the growing prevalence of short bowel syndrome.
BlueWeave Consulting, a leading strategic consulting and market research firm, in its recent study, estimated the global short bowel syndrome market size at USD 828.29 million in 2022. During the forecast period between 2023 and 2029, BlueWeave expects the global short bowel syndrome market size to expand at a significant CAGR of 14.05% reaching a value of USD 2,053.24 million by 2029. Major growth drivers for the global short bowel syndrome market include an increasing prevalence of gastrointestinal disorders, advancements in medical technology, and growing awareness among healthcare professionals and patients. The incidence of short bowel syndrome is rising globally, primarily due to factors such as gastrointestinal surgeries, congenital anomalies, inflammatory bowel diseases, and other conditions leading to the removal or dysfunction of a significant portion of the small intestine. This growing prevalence has created a demand for effective treatment options. Advancements in medical technology have played a crucial role in the development of innovative therapies for short bowel syndrome. These advancements encompass parenteral nutrition solutions, intestinal transplantation procedures, and intestinal rehabilitation programs, which have improved patient outcomes and are contributing to market growth. Also, pharmaceutical companies and research organizations are actively investing in research and development efforts to discover and develop new treatment options for short bowel syndrome. These initiatives aim to enhance patients' quality of life and address the existing unmet medical needs in this field. As a result, these factors are expected to drive the expansion of the global short bowel syndrome market throughout the forecast period. However, the high cost of SBS treatment and long-term complications of SBS are anticipated to restrain the overall market growth during the period in analysis.
Global Short Bowel Syndrome Market – Overview
The global Short Bowel Syndrome (SBS) market encompasses the diagnosis, treatment, and management of a condition characterized by the loss or dysfunction of a significant portion of the small intestine. It involves pharmaceutical companies, medical device manufacturers, research organizations, and healthcare providers. Key products and services include pharmacological therapies, parenteral nutrition solutions, medical devices, surgical interventions, rehabilitation programs, and support services. The market is driven by factors such as the rising prevalence of gastrointestinal disorders, advancements in medical technology, research and development investments, and the need for effective SBS management. Market players strive to develop innovative therapies and interventions to improve patient outcomes and quality of life.
Impact of COVID-19 on Global Short Bowel Syndrome Market
COVID-19 pandemic adversely affected the global short bowel syndrome market. The healthcare systems' focus on managing COVID-19 cases, disruptions in the supply chain, and restrictions on non-essential healthcare services have affected the diagnosis, treatment, and management of SBS. Clinical trials for new therapies and medical device development have been delayed or halted, impacting research and development activities. Also, the economic impact of the pandemic has affected healthcare budgets, potentially limiting patients’ access to expensive SBS treatments. However, as the situation improved, the market gradually recovered, supported by increased healthcare investments and a resurgence in research and development efforts.
Global Short Bowel Syndrome Market – By Type
By type, the global short bowel syndrome market is divided into GLP-2, Growth Hormone, and Glutamine segments. The GLP-2 (glucagon-like peptide-2) segment holds the highest share in the global Short Bowel Syndrome (SBS) market due to its effectiveness in managing the condition. GLP-2 is a hormone that plays a crucial role in promoting intestinal growth, enhancing nutrient absorption, and reducing fluid loss. It has shown promising results in clinical trials and is approved for the treatment of SBS in several regions. GLP-2 therapies, such as Teduglutide, have demonstrated the ability to reduce dependence on parenteral nutrition and improve intestinal function. The proven efficacy of GLP-2 treatments has led to their widespread adoption, contributing to the segment's dominant market share in the global SBS market.
