ResMed is a leading respiratory medical device manufacturer, specializing in products for the diagnosis and treatment of sleep disordered breathing (SDB). ResMed operates through direct offices in the United States, the United Kingdom, Switzerland, Sweden, Spain, Singapore, New Zealand, the Netherlands, Malaysia, Japan, Hong Kong, Germany, France, Finland, Australia, and Austria, and through a network of distributors in more than 60 other countries.

When ResMed was formed in 1989, its primary purpose was to commercialize a device for treating obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), a major subset of SDB. Developed in 1981 by Professor Colin Sullivan and colleagues at the University of Sydney, nasal continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) provided the first successful noninvasive treatment of OSA. Since 1989, ResMed has maintained its focus on SDB, which is gaining greater public and physician awareness. Operations have grown dramatically through the introduction of a number of highly innovative product lines.
