Penlon America President Gavin Keogh made the announcement at the American Society of Anesthesiologists Annual Meeting at the Georgia World Congress Center in Atlanta.

The machine, the Prima SP3, is a new entrant to the North American anesthesia marketplace. It is made in Oxford, England to custom specifications for the U.S. and Canadian markets. Penlon Ltd. is an anesthesia machine manufacturer that has been building machines and selling them worldwide for over 60 years.

"Our customers have been asking us for years for a simple, easy to use, familiar anesthesia machine design that incorporates the basic, as well as more sophisticated ventilation modes, without breaking the bank," said Keogh. "The current duopoly in the marketplace -- GE and --Dräger continue to build complex, expensive anesthesia machines and are ignoring this segment of the market. We feel the market is ripe for a viable third player in this space. We intend to use trusted, seasoned, specialty sales and service distributors that have been in their local markets for years to bring this machine to market and support it going forward."
