From Pickwickian Syndrome to Sleep Disordered Breathing, Obstructive Sleep Apnea, OSA, and everything in between. Well it all started with a vacuum cleaner!

Meet Dr Peter Farrell, founder and former CEO of Resmed; the little company we all know very well! Dr Farrell tells about his time in university in Australia, then at MIT, and finally meeting with Dr Collin Sullivan to develop the first commercially available CPAP machine.

Learn the fascinating origin story of the CPAP and how Resmed grew from 9 people to the 10,000 person multinational company we know today.
