LAS VEGAS (Jan. 27, 2014)—Last year’s Medtrade brought unprecedented academic and consumer attention lavished on sleep medicine, and that trend is continuing in 2014. Sleep research originating in the United States and abroad continues to pour forth on almost a weekly basis.
The interest in sleep is reflected in the exhibitor list at Medtrade Spring, which includes the following sleep/sleep accessory companies:

The list is filled with small, medium and large companies that focus on patients of all ages. In the case of Naturs Design, a Michigan-based company, founder Bob Rutan created his signature product literally in the middle of the night.
As his wife suffered through another miserable night with a CPAP mask, Rutan literally cut cloth from his own T-shirt to fashion a CPAP mask liner. “After that, I fell asleep and woke up seven hours later,” says Rutan, whose company now makes RemZzzs CPAP liners. “I thought I had killed my wife, because she had not moved. She had not slept so well in a long time.”
That was five years ago, and the inspiration has blossomed into a 15-employee company that will soon exhibit its retail cash item (a 100 percent cotton CPAP liner called RemZzzs) at Medtrade Spring (Booth #943), scheduled for March 10-12 at Mandalay Bay Convention Center in Las Vegas.
