     This  Amendment No. 5 to the Tender Offer  Statement on Schedule TO relates
to the tender offer by Utah Medical Products,  Inc., a Utah corporation  ("UTMD"
or the "Company"), to purchase 1,000,000 shares, or such lesser number of shares
as are validly  tendered and not withdrawn,  of its Common Stock, par value $.01
per share, including the associated common stock purchase rights issued pursuant
to the Rights  Agreement,  dated as of October 28,  1994,  between  Utah Medical
Products, Inc. and Registrar and Transfer Company as Rights Agent, at a price of
$8.20 per Share,  upon the terms and subject to the  conditions set forth in the
Offer to Purchase  dated August 18, 2000 (the "Offer to  Purchase"),  and in the
related Letter of Transmittal  which,  as they may be amended from time to time,
together  constitute  the  "Offer,"  copies of which  were  previously  filed on
Amendment  No.  1 to  the  Schedule  TO  as  Exhibit  (a)(1)(A)  and  (a)(1)(B),
respectively. This Amendment No. 5 to the Schedule TO is intended to satisfy the
reporting  requirements  of Rule  13e-4(c)(1) of the Securities  Exchange Act of
1934, as amended.

     The Offer expired at 5:00 p.m.,  New York City time,  on Friday,  September
15, 2000. In accordance with the terms of the Offer,  UTMD accepted for purchase
1,118,944  Shares.  The final proration  factor for the Offer is 69.0%.  Odd Lot
Shares of 3,272 were purchased prior to proration. The Offer was oversubscribed,
with 1,608,225 Shares properly tendered and not properly  withdrawn  pursuant to
the Offer.  In  addition  to the  1,000,000  Shares  subject to the Offer,  UTMD
exercised its option to purchase an additional 110,720 Shares,  representing not
more than 2% of its outstanding Shares, and accepted all Shares duly tendered by
any stockholder who tendered all Shares owned  beneficially and who, as a result
of proration, would then own beneficially an aggregate of fewer than 100 shares.
The number of such Shares was 8,224. The 1,118,944 Shares purchased  pursuant to
the Offer represented about 18.2% of the outstanding Shares immediately prior to
the Offer.  Following  the  purchase of the Shares  accepted  in the Offer,  the
Company has 5,026,803 Shares outstanding.

     Payment for Shares  accepted,  and the return of all other Shares tendered,
