CPAP Machines

Respironics Inc. is a provider of solutions for the global sleep and respiratory markets. The Company’s success spans more than three decades. Respironics released the world’s first commercially available Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) device in 1985. It has made Respironics a name acknowledged worldwide. They provide products that improve the lives of people with such disorders like sleep apnea.

Respironics was founded by Jerry McGinnis in 1976. They expanded manufacturing operations overseas in 1982. Forbes Magazine names Respironics one of America’s best small companies in 1990. In 1997, Respironics expanded its International presence, opening an office in France. On March 17, 2008 Royal Philips Electronics (NYSE:PHG, AEX:PHI) (”Philips”) and Respironics Inc. (NASDAQ:RESP) (”Respironics“) today announced that Philips has completed the acquisition of Respironics through the merger of its indirect wholly owned subsidiary with and into Respironics. As a result of the merger, Respironics has become an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Philips.

Respironics is organized into three primary groups:

Sleep and Home Respiratory Group

Hospital Group

International Group

The Sleep Well Ventures product line moves Respironics beyond our core obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) business into the broader sleep market, which encompasses the millions of people who suffer from undiagnosed and untreated sleep and sleep-related movement disorders.

There are so many products available for both domestic (U.S.A.) as well as international that I have only chosen their REMstar® model line of their CPAP machines as an example from their product lines.

AEIOMed founder and CEO Steve Bordewick started his company in 2002 in a shed in his backyard to construct prototypes of what he hoped would be a better CPAP and nasal interface. His concept is smaller is better when it came to CPAP units. For its CPAP interface, AEIOMed removed the straps generally associated with CPAP systems.
