Kangaroo ePump & Kangaroo Joey— Important Update

This summer, Cardinal Health announced that it will discontinue sale of the Kangaroo™ ePump and Kangaroo™ Joey enteral feeding pumps, as well as the associated feeding sets, citing global supply chain issues as part of the reason. While they are working to improve service levels of feeding sets, they anticipate problems with intermittent service and production costs to rise. In a letter to customers dated June 17, 2024, Cardinal Health notes that it will continue to service these pumps “until the contracted warranty end date or until the depletion of available spare parts inventory—whichever comes first.”

Cardinal is encouraging a transition to the Kangaroo OMNI Kangaroo™ enteral feeding pump, which was launched in September 2023.

The full letter is available at oley.org. If this will affect you, please reach out to your home enteral nutrition supplier (DME or infusion/homecare company). They can contact Cardinal directly on your behalf.
