WA biotech Visiomed (ASX:VSG) has replaced retiring CEO Saliba Sassine with William Dolphin, formerly of New Zealand's SpectraNet and patient monitoring equipment company, SonaMed.

Dolphin, who is to take control in April, will be responsible for moving Visiomed's FDA-cleared asthma device, the Funhaler, into commercial production.
