Kangaroo History: Sherwood, Kendall, Covidien, Medtronic and Cardinal Health
Kangaroo feeding pumps have changed owners five times since Chesebrough-Pond’s introduced them around 1980. If your pump says Sherwood, Kendall, Tyco Healthcare, Covidien or Medtronic, here is where it fits and what that means for service today.
- 1980–1998
Chesebrough-Pond’s and Sherwood
Chesebrough-Pond’s introduces the Kangaroo enteral feeding pump around 1980. American Home Products buys Chesebrough-Pond’s hospital products business in 1986, and Kangaroo becomes a core brand of its Sherwood Medical unit, later Sherwood-Davis & Geck, alongside its Monoject syringes.
- 1998
Tyco Healthcare and Kendall
Tyco buys Sherwood-Davis & Geck in February 1998 and folds Kangaroo into its Tyco Healthcare group. Kangaroo ePump manuals from this era carry the Kendall and Tyco Healthcare names.
- 2007
Covidien
On June 29, 2007, Tyco spins off its healthcare businesses as Covidien. Covidien calls its Kangaroo brand a leader in enteral feeding.
- 2015
Medtronic buys Covidien
Medtronic completes its roughly $49.9 billion acquisition of Covidien on January 26, 2015, and Kangaroo becomes a Medtronic brand.
- 2017
Cardinal Health buys Kangaroo
On July 29, 2017, Cardinal Health buys Medtronic’s Patient Care, Deep Vein Thrombosis and Nutritional Insufficiency businesses for $6.1 billion, including the Kangaroo, Kendall and Curity brands.
- 2022–2023
Kangaroo OMNI
The FDA clears the Kangaroo OMNI in December 2022, and Cardinal Health launches it in the U.S. in September 2023.
Names you may see on Kangaroo equipment
What this means for your fleet

Kangaroo Repair Questions
Can you repair pumps from home enteral fleets?
Yes. Home enteral and long-term care providers send us pumps from their fleets. Submit one RMA for the whole batch.
Who makes Kangaroo feeding pumps now?
Cardinal Health. Kangaroo pumps began at Chesebrough-Pond’s and moved to American Home Products’ Sherwood Medical in 1986, then passed to Tyco Healthcare’s Kendall unit, Covidien and Medtronic before Cardinal Health bought the business in 2017.
Is a Covidien or Kendall Kangaroo ePump the same as Cardinal Health’s?
Yes. The Kangaroo ePump has been sold under the Kendall, Covidien and Cardinal Health names. Whichever name is on the label, it is the same ePump platform, and we repair it in-house.
Do you provide loaner pumps during repair?
We don’t offer loaners. If a pump isn’t worth repairing, you can decline the estimate and we can credit that unit toward a recertified pump.
How do I send my equipment in?
Submit an RMA request online. We email you a free inbound shipping label (FedEx or UPS), and you pack and ship your equipment to our Tustin, California facility.
What does it cost if I decline the repair?
Nothing. For customers in the United States, the shipping label, the evaluation and the return of declined equipment are free. Some large or specialty equipment carries an evaluation fee, and we always tell you before you send it in.
Do your repairs come with a warranty?
Yes. Every repair includes a 90-day warranty. Recertified equipment we sell comes with a 6-month or 1-year warranty depending on the model.
