(Nasdaq: DHRM ) ("Dehaier" or the "Company"), an emerging leader in development, assembly, marketing and sales of medical devices and homecare medical products, announced today that it has completed research and development for its new DHR-998 sleep diagnostics device.

We added two new important channels to improve the accuracy of sleep diagnosis. We also enhanced the user interface to make the device's features even easier to use and optimized the operating system. We expect the new device will be ready to enter market near the end of this year. We plan to attend domestic and international exhibitions to show the world the new device beginning in 2014."
