ITEM 8.01.        OTHER EVENTS.

         Allied Healthcare International Inc. (the "Company") has determined to
hold its 2005 annual meeting of shareholders on or about May 10, 2005. Because
this date is more than 30 days earlier than the anniversary date of the 2004
annual meeting of shareholders, the deadlines for submissions of shareholder
proposals relating to the 2005 annual meeting has changed from the dates set
forth in the proxy statement relating to the 2004 annual meeting. Shareholders
who wish to submit shareholder proposals pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the
Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act") to be included in the
proxy statement relating to the 2005 annual meeting of shareholders must submit
such proposals to the Company at its principal executive offices, 555 Madison
Avenue, New York, New York 10022 (Attn: Secretary), no later than April 13,
2005. Shareholders who wish to present a proposal for consideration outside the
processes of Rule 14a-8 must submit such proposal to the Company at its
principal executive offices by April 13, 2005 or such proposal will be
considered untimely under Rule 14a-4(c)(1) of the Exchange Act and the Company's
proxies will have discretionary voting authority with respect to such proposal,
if it is presented at the annual meeting, without including information
regarding such proposal in the Company's proxy materials.






                                   SIGNATURES

         Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the
undersigned hereunto duly authorized.
