    Brisbane, Australia, 14 November 2018 -- ResApp Health Limited (ASX:RAP), a leading digital
    health company developing smartphone applications for the diagnosis and management of
    respiratory disease, is pleased to announce that its quality management system is now
    International Organization of Standardization (ISO) 13485:2016 compliant, following a successful
    Stage Two Audit by BSI (The British Standards Institution). ResApp expects to receive a formal
    certificate within two weeks. ISO 13485 is an essential step in obtaining European CE Mark and
    Australian Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) approval for all of ResApp’s products.
    In order to achieve ISO 13485 compliance, a company must demonstrate to an authorized third
    party that it meets the ISO requirements for a comprehensive quality management system for
    the design and manufacture of medical devices.

    “Obtaining ISO 13485 certification is a significant accomplishment and an important milestone as
    we approach commercialisation in Europe and Australia,” said Tony Keating, CEO and Managing
    Director of ResApp. “In Australia there are 150 million general practitioner (GP) visits annually,
    with acute upper respiratory tract infections being the most commonly managed illnesses for
    patients under 45. Europe represents an even larger opportunity, with more than 6.8 billion GP
    visits annually. In the UK alone, a quarter of the population visit their GP for a respiratory tract
    infection at least once per year, while in the Netherlands 15% of all GP visits relate to a respiratory
    tract infection. National health services across Europe are adopting new technologies such as
    telehealth and AI to deliver more effective primary healthcare. Our products fit perfectly into this
    growing trend. With ISO 13485 compliance now complete, we are well on our way towards
    obtaining CE marking and TGA approval for our suite of smartphone applications.”
