Earlier this month, ResMed and China’s BMC Medical agreed to bury the hatchet, saying that their agreement puts to bed all of the long-simmering litigation between the sleep apnea device makers.
The patent infringement disputes date back at least to June 2013, when ResMed filed a lawsuit against BMC and its U.S. distributor, 3B Medical. That case involved patents covering continuous positive airway pressure devices, a nasal mask and a nasal pillow interface. Both sides claimed wins the following year when the International Trade Commission issued a mixed ruling, finding that 9 of BMC’s products each violated at least 1 of ResMed’s patents but invalidating others.
