Awards

In the fifth year history of the award, ResMed have been the proud winners of the ARTP Manufacturers Award for four of them and once runner up.

The  Association for Respiratory Technology & Physiology (ARTP), through standards of training and quality assurance, are the professional guardians of physiological measurement issues in respiratory medicine in the UK.

ARTP members work primarily in the NHS. "We uphold the standards that our members need to be able to deliver a high quality service to our patients" says ARTP Chairman Dr Brendan Cooper. "To do this, it is critical that we are supported with the best technology and service - that ultimately represents good value for money to the NHS."

The ARTP Manufacturers award  is made following a survey of all ARTP members according to four main criteria: quality of equipment, sales, service and value for money and relates to all manufacturers that they deal with from sleep to lung function.

The survey covers many areas such as equipment and product reliability, ease of use and quality. It also covers sales, the knowledge of the company employees, pricing policies and flexibility and related product support information availability. It also covers service support, availability, response times and value for money.  

ResMed is a leading respiratory medical device manufacturer, specialising in products for the diagnosis and treatment of sleep disordered breathing (SDB). "To be awarded the Manufacturers Award is a great honour for ResMed and recognition for the UK team as well as for the company worldwide", says Ross Sommerville, ResMed's UK Managing Director.
