HAWTHORNE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- OSI Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ:OSIS) today announced that its Healthcare division, Spacelabs Healthcare, has delivered the first orders for its recently introduced high performance anesthesia delivery system, ARKON^TM.

"ARKON is the culmination of our strong vision of what anesthesia delivery systems should be, supported by years of research and interviews with clinicians from across the globe," commented Deepak Chopra, OSI Systems CEO. "It represents a major step forward for the organization and I am proud to announce that we have delivered our first orders of ARKON in the US.
