Company overview

AIROS Medical was founded in 2016 and is headquartered in Audubon, Pennsylvania. President and CEO Gerald (Gerry) Makoid and COO Darren Behuniak are co-founders. The company develops compression systems for prescribed home therapy and clinical use, working with clinicians and durable medical equipment suppliers.

Its current portfolio comprises the six-chamber AIROS 6/6P and eight-chamber AIROS 8/8P families for lymphatic and venous conditions, plus the ARTAIRA arterial compression system. Seven FDA 510(k) decisions are mapped across those families. ARTAIRA has a distinct arterial indication set and should not be treated as interchangeable with the lymphatic/venous pumps.

AIROS acquired CircuFlow and ArterioFlow products and associated intellectual property from Devon Medical Products in 2018 and continues to offer support for those legacy lines. Current marketing is centered on AIROS-branded systems and ARTAIRA. Revenue, funding totals, installed-base size and independently verified comparative outcomes remain unconfirmed.
