Short bowel syndrome (SBS) is a malabsorption disorder that occurs due to the loss or dysfunction of a significant portion of the small intestine, leading to impaired nutrient and fluid absorption. This often results in symptoms such as diarrhea, dehydration, electrolyte imbalances, and malnutrition. The severity of these symptoms depends on the length of the remaining intestine and its ability to adapt. SBS can have a major impact on overall health, requiring careful dietary and medical management.
Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report's Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.
The primary types of treatments in short bowel syndrome include glucagon-like peptide (GLP-2), growth hormone, and glutamine. GLP-2, an intestinal hormone, plays a vital role in enhancing nutrient absorption, promoting intestinal growth, and reducing inflammation in the gut, making it a key focus for therapeutic approaches in conditions such as SBS. Diagnosis involves physical exams, blood tests, fecal fat tests, imaging procedures, and other assessments. Treatment options include nutritional therapy, medications, surgery, and transplants, which are provided through various channels such as hospital pharmacies, specialty pharmacies, and others.
The short bowel syndrome market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides short bowel syndrome market statistics, including short bowel syndrome industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with a short bowel syndrome market share, detailed short bowel syndrome market segments, market trends and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the short bowel syndrome industry. This short bowel syndrome market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry.
The short bowel syndrome market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from$2.69 billion in 2024 to $3.09 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 14.9%. The growth observed in the historic period can be attributed to several factors, including the increasing prevalence of gastrointestinal disorders, rising healthcare spending and expanded insurance coverage, advancements in post-surgical management of SBS, a higher incidence of Crohn's disease and other gastrointestinal disorders, and improvements in parenteral nutrition formulations and administration techniques.
The short bowel syndrome market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to$5.33 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 14.6%. The growth projected for the forecast period can be attributed to several factors, including the rising prevalence of short bowel syndrome (SBS), increasing adoption of parenteral and enteral nutrition therapies, expanding clinical research and drug development, higher healthcare expenditure, and greater awareness and early diagnosis of SBS. Key trends in the forecast period include advancements in intestinal rehabilitation therapies, the development of small intestine transplantation techniques, the adoption of telemedicine for SBS management, technological innovations in enteral feeding devices, and the integration of artificial intelligence in SBS treatment planning.
The increasing prevalence of gastrointestinal diseases is expected to drive the growth of the short bowel syndrome market in the coming years. Gastrointestinal diseases encompass a wide range of conditions affecting the digestive tract, including the stomach, intestines, liver, and pancreas, often impairing digestion and nutrient absorption. The rise in these diseases is largely driven by unhealthy dietary habits that disrupt gut health and promote inflammation. Gastrointestinal disorders can contribute to short bowel syndrome by requiring surgical removal of damaged intestinal sections, which reduces the intestine's ability to absorb nutrients. For instance, in September 2023, the Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) Clinical and Research Centre reported that over 320,000 people in Canada have inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), and the prevalence is expected to increase by 2.44% annually. By 2035, an estimated 470,000 Canadians will be living with IBD. Consequently, the growing prevalence of gastrointestinal diseases is boosting the growth of the short bowel syndrome market.
Key players in the short bowel syndrome market are focusing on developing cutting-edge treatments for intestinal failure to improve outcomes for patients with gastrointestinal disorders. Intestinal failure is a serious condition where the small intestine is unable to absorb sufficient nutrients, fluids, and electrolytes, compromising hydration and nutrition. For example, in May 2024, Ironwood Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a US-based healthcare company, presented new data from studies on apraglutide, a next-generation GLP-2 analog, in adults with short bowel syndrome and intestinal failure. Apraglutide showed potential to enhance intestinal absorption and reduce dependence on parenteral support, highlighting the drug's safety, efficacy, and long-term benefits. This advancement underscores Ironwood's dedication to developing innovative therapies for gastrointestinal disorders.
In May 2024, Takeda Pharmaceutical Company Limited, a Japan-based global pharmaceutical company, partnered with Inspire, a US-based patient community platform, to address the unmet needs of short bowel syndrome patients. This collaboration aims to use real-world patient insights and multidisciplinary research to identify care gaps, improve patient support, and drive innovation in treatment approaches for short bowel syndrome. Inspire connects patients with health and wellness communities to enhance patient engagement and support data-driven solutions for healthcare challenges.
