Fisher & Paykel Healthcare

We are a leading designer, manufacturer and marketer of products for use in respiratory care, acute care, and the treatment of obstructive sleep apnea.

Fisher & Paykel commenced business in 1934 as an importer of refrigerators and washing machines. In 1938 F&P started manufacturing white-ware under license to several major international appliance companies and in the mid-1960s moved to manufacturing products using in-house technology. The involvement in healthcare started in the late 1960s when F&P sought involvement in a business that could benefit from their growing manufacturing and electronic expertise. A prototype respiratory humidifier, developed in New Zealand for use with patients needing ventilation in hospital intensive care situations, was taken to production by F&P. Since then we have consistently developed innovations to improve patient care and developed world-wide distribution for these products. On 14 November 2001, as part of a reorganisation, Fisher & Paykel Industries Limited was renamed Fisher & Paykel Healthcare Corporation Limited and a new company, Fisher & Paykel Appliances Holdings Limited, was established to own F&P’s appliances and finance business. In connection with the reorganisation, Fisher & Paykel Healthcare Corporation Limited listed on the Australian and New Zealand Stock Exchanges and NASDAQ. In February 2003 the NASDAQ listing was terminated.

Integrating the use of nasal high flow (NHF) across general care areas, emergency department and pediatric intensive care units may be associated with improved standardization of care. When used cohesively across the hospital, NHF may also contribute to a change in respiratory support practice, moving towards less invasive strategies and leading to the potential for more patients to be managed in local hospitals and lower acuity settings.

Proper mask sizing is crucial for effective neonatal resuscitation. International guidelines recommend that infant face masks should cover the mouth and nose without extending over the chin or covering the eyes.

Research by O'Shea et al. found that 35 mm masks are best for infants under 29 weeks’ gestation, while 42 mm masks suit those aged between 27 and 33 weeks. Explore our full range of neonatal resuscitation masks.
