Summary

Headquartered in Murrysville, Pennsylvania, USA, Respironics offers devices used mainly to treat patients suffering from respiratory disorders, including positive airway pressure devices to treat obstructive sleep apnoea; non-invasive ventilatory support units; non-invasive cardio-respiratory monitors; portable invasive volume ventilator units; home oxygen devices; diagnostic and monitoring systems; developmental care products for premature infants; and asthma and allergy devices for home and hospital use.

Respironics reported record financial results in fiscal 2005, with revenue up by 20% to US$ 911.5 million, led by the company’s sleep therapy products and acquisitions. The acquisition of Profile Therapeutics in July 2004 expanded the company’s presence in the global sleep and respiratory markets with Profile’s technologies for respiratory drug delivery. Caradyne, acquired in February 2004, offers technologies that are complementary to the company’s ventilation products, while the April 2005 acquisition of Mini-Mitter enabled the company to expand its presence in diagnosing and treating sleep disorders through Mini-Mitter’s sleep and physiological monitoring products.
