From the NICU to a Medical Breakthrough with Dori Jones of Acqumen Medical

In this episode of The Turning Point, we sit down with Dori Jones, founder and CEO of Acqumen Medical, to explore how a personal NICU experience sparked a breakthrough in pediatric critical care. The U.S. has the highest infant mortality rate of any wealthy nation—a reality most people never confront until they’re forced to. Dori explains why infants and children in critical care are so difficult to monitor, how doctors make life-or-death decisions with limited data, and how Acqumen Medical is changing that with non-invasive hemodynamic monitoring technology. We unpack the science behind blood flow measurement, why cardiac output matters far earlier than traditional vital signs, and how Acqumen’s UltraTrack technology combines ultrasound and impedance in a completely new way. Dori also shares the realities of building a pediatric medical device company, navigating FDA pathways, fundraising, and why innovation in children’s healthcare is both overlooked—and essential. 🎧 Learn more about the technology at https://www.acqumenmedical.com/ 📩 Subscribe to The Turning Point at https://stillpointinsight.com/the-turning-point #TheTurningPointPodcast #HealthcareInnovation #PediatricCare #MedicalDevices #FounderStory #NICU #InfantHealth #HealthTech #MissionDriven #StartupStories
