Sonex Health, founded in 2014 by Mayo Clinic physicians Darryl Barnes and Jay Smith, along with business operations expert Aaron Keenan, is based in Eagan, Minnesota. In the medical device manufacturing space, the company emphasizes refined simplicity to address healthcare challenges. Its flagship UltraGuideCTR, developed with Meerkat Technology, enables carpal tunnel release with real-time ultrasound guidance in office- or clinic-based settings rather than in an operating room. The same approach extends to trigger finger release through UltraGuideTFR, using ultrasound to visualize hand structures during the procedure for physicians. In 2023, Sonex Health announced a U.S. clinical study to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of office-based carpal tunnel release with ultrasound guidance.
