Vapotherm Inc, a global leader in high-flow oxygen therapy products, earned one of the top awards for its exhibit at the American Association for Respiratory Care (AARC)’s 54th Annual Convention and Exhibition in Anaheim, Calif.

“The AARC Conference is the premier research and professional meeting for the respiratory therapy field,  We are proud that the AARC recognized our work,” said Kevin Thibodeau, Vapotherm’s executive vice     president of sales and marketing.
