Animas Corporation

Animas Corporation is an American company that specializes in making insulin pumps, used by people with diabetes. The company was founded by Dr. Katherine Crothall in 1996, had its initial public offering in May 2004 under the ticker symbol 'PUMP', and was ultimately acquired by Johnson & Johnson on February 18, 2006. The business is headquartered in West Chester, Pennsylvania and forms part of the Johnson & Johnson Diabetes franchise along with Lifescan and several other companies producing medical products for the treatment and management of diabetes. On October 5, 2017 Animus announced that it was closing and had sold their customer database to (“partnered with”) Medtronic.

Their press release: Johnson & Johnson's Animas Corp. said Thursday it plans to close operations and exit the insulin pump business. The company will discontinue the manufacturing and sale of its Animas, Vibe and OneTouch Ping insulin pumps. Animas said Medtronic PLC (mdt) will help facilitate a transition for the 90,000 patients who use Animas pumps, and who will be offered the option to transfer to a Medtronic pump. Animas employs 410 people around the world. The move comes as part of J&J's strategic review announced in January, in which it is continuing to evaluate options for LifeScan, a blood glucose monitoring company with the OneTouch brand of products.

The Animas 2020 is an insulin pump that carries 200 units of insulin and can be connected to an infusion set following the Luer standard. Its predecessor was the Animas IR1250.

The pump comes in five different colors, features a color screen and allows the user to have custom alarm tones. To improve treatment the system can save instructions to use when its user has a sick day and up to 500 rules set by the user on how to act on different occasions (such as when eating a certain food type).

In April 2013, the Food and Drug Administration issued a Class I Recall for the Animas 2020. The recall specifies an issue with the pump initiating a false alarm or warning sound, which may prompt pump users to inadvertently administer more insulin and can result in a serious health risk.
