Vincent Medical Holdings Limited announce that, the Group has recently been granted the 510(k) clearance from the United States Food and Drug Administration (the "FDA") for its inspired TM VHB20 heated humidifier (the "Humidifier"). The Humidifier is the first FDA 510(k) cleared electronic device of the inspiredTM brand. It is a respiratory humidifier that provides a heat source and temperature control to warm and humidify cold and dry medical gases.

Warmed and humidified medical gas is then delivered to patients requiring mechanical ventilation or positive pressure breathing assistance. The Humidifier is an active humidification system that can automatically maintain temperature and relative humidity settings as selected by healthcare professionals, and is adopted for infant to adult patients within a hospital environment. It can be used for treatment of multiple patients after the replacement of consumables for each treatment cycle for each individual patient.

Earlier in October 2022, at the 35 th Annual Congress of The European Society of Intensive Care Medicine, Dr. François Lellouche, a critical care physician at the Institut Universitaire de Cardiologie et de Pneumologie de Québec and associate professor at the Faculté de médecine at Université Laval, presented his findings at a poster presentation and stated that based on the preliminary data from bench testing in a specialised laboratory, the humidification performance of the Humidifier appears to outperform other comparable heated humidifiers used in the evaluation.
