AUCKLAND, NZ – Medtrade exhibitor Fisher & Paykel Healthcare Corp has launched the F&P my820 System into the United States. The F&P my820 is the company’s latest respiratory humidifier for home mechanical ventilation. The F&P my820 System specifically provides heated humidification during the delivery of invasive ventilation, noninvasive ventilation, and humidified high-flow therapies for adult and pediatric patients.

“The F&P my820 is the result of years of dedicated investment in new technologies that improve care and outcomes for patients in their homes,” said Andrew Somervell, vice president – Products & Technology. “It provides peace of mind that adults and children can continue to receive high-quality care after they leave the hospital.”

Designed specifically to perform in home environments where temperatures can fluctuate, the F&P my820 System automatically adapts to environmental temperature changes using a built-in sensor. This sensor works to mitigate circuit condensate while also reducing device-wire clutter and providing patients with a simplified set-up process.

The F&P my820 System is currently available in Australasia, Europe, Canada and the United States, with more markets being added as regulatory clearances are received. DME customers in the United States can purchase the product starting Aug. 1 by contacting their local Fisher & Paykel Healthcare sales representative.
