For investors’ notice, TNI is a German ventilation company, which produces and markets diagnostic and therapeutic equipment in the field of respiratory assistance therapy.
Last August, Masimo had announced investments in TNI, which included an option to acquire it.
How Does Masimo Stand to Gain?
With the buyout, Masimo will be adding TNI’s novel softFlow technology to its respiratory care product portfolio.
Notably, the technology is designed to provide high flow, warm and humidified respiratory gases to patients suffering from serious pulmonary conditions. The system, comprising an integrated flow generator, respiratory circuit and a patient interface, can be used in both hospitals and at home.
Moreover, the recent outbreak of COVID-19 (coronavirus) has ramped up demand for TNI’s softFlow technology. Hence, this technology will provide Masimo with additional tools to address the growing number of people affected by pulmonary diseases.
A report by MarketsandMarkets projects the global respiratory care devices market to reach a worth of $31.8 billion by 2024, at a CAGR of 9.1%.
Hence, the latest move seems to be a prudent one by Masimo.
Masimo’s Respiratory Care Products
Masimo boasts a wide range of respiratory care products, which offer oxygenation monitoring and ventilation throughout the breathing cycle.
The products include Signal Extraction Technology (SET) pulse oximeters, Masimo Pulse CO-Oximeters, and respiratory acoustic sensors like RAS-45 or RAS-125c and Rad-97.
Notably, these products have been contributing significantly to the company’s top line.
