Sorenson Medical

Sorenson Medical is a medical device company specializing in the development and manufacturing of ambulatory infusion pumps and pain management systems. The company is best known for its innovative 'ambIT' electronic infusion pump, which provides controlled delivery of medication for post-operative pain management and other clinical applications. Founded by prolific inventor James LeVoy Sorenson, the company focused on improving patient mobility and recovery through portable drug delivery technology. In 2003, Sorenson Medical was acquired by Kimberly-Clark for approximately $150 million. Its product lines were later transitioned to Halyard Health and eventually became part of Avanos Medical following corporate spin-offs. The company's legacy continues through its widely used infusion technologies in the anesthesiology and surgical recovery markets.
