1. Introduction to CloudPAT
1.1. Intended Use of WatchPAT
™ device
1.1.1 WP200U in US
The WatchPAT™200U (WP200U) device is a non-invasive home care device for use with patients suspected to have sleep related breathing disorders. The
WP200U is a diagnostic aid for the detection of sleep related breathing disorders, sleep staging (Rapid Eye Movement (REM) Sleep, Light Sleep,
Deep Sleep and Wake), snoring level and body position. The WP200U generates a peripheral arterial tonometry ("PAT") Respiratory Disturbance
Index ("PRDI"), Apnea-Hypopnea index ("PAHI"), Central Apnea-Hypopnea index ("PAHIc"), PAT sleep staging identification (PSTAGES) and optional snoring level and body position discrete states from an external integrated snoring and body position sensor. The WP200U's PSTAGES and snoring level and body position provide supplemental information to its
PRDI/PAHI/PAHIc. The WP200U's PSTAGES and snoring level and body position are not intended to be used as the sole or primary basis for diagnosing any sleep related breathing disorder, prescribing treatment, or determining whether additional diagnostic assessment is warranted.
PAHIc is indicated for use in patients 17 years and older. All other parameters are indicated for 12 years and older.
1.1.2 WP200 / WP200U in ROW
WatchPAT™ device is a non-invasive home care device for use with patients suspected to have sleep related breathing disorders. The WatchPAT™ device is a diagnostic aid for the detection of sleep-related breathing disorders, sleep staging (Rapid Eye Movement (REM) Sleep, Light Sleep,Deep Sleep and
Wake), snoring level and body position. The device generates a peripheral arterial tonometry ("PAT") Respiratory Disturbance Index ("PRDI"), Apnea-
Hypopnea index ("PAHI"),PAT sleep staging identification ("PSTAGES") and optional snoring level and body position discrete states from an external integrated snoring and body position (SBP) sensor. The device’s "PSTAGES" and SBP provide supplemental information to its PRDI/PAHI. The device’s
"PSTAGES" and SBP are not intended to be used as the sole or primary basis for diagnosing any sleep related breathing disorder, prescribing treatment, or determining whether additional diagnostic assessment is warranted.
1.2. zzzPAT S/W
– Definition
zzzPAT is an analysis software package used with the WatchPAT™ device to aid in diagnosis of sleep related breathing disorders and detects REM, Light
Sleep, Deep Sleep and Wake stages. The zzzPAT S/W displays the signals recorded by the WatchPAT™ device, automatically identifies breathing disordered events and REM, Light Sleep, Deep Sleep stages, and generates a comprehensive report for the physician.
CloudPAT Page 7 Operation Manual
Itamar Medical Ltd.
1.3. CloudPAT S/W
– Definition
CloudPAT is a HIPAA-compliant (PL104-191) web-based cloud application used for providing management system for sleep studies. It offers individual physicians or large organizations the ability to control the process of sleep disorder management seamlessly and electronically in a turnkey fashion.
In its basic implementation, CloudPAT is a parallel adjunct to the local zzzPAT sleep analysis software sold separately with WatchPAT™ device.
CloudPAT uses zzzPAT’s analyzing software modules (part of WP Interface package) that are responsible for the identification of the breathing disordered events and Sleep stages.
CloudPAT offers simple preparation and uploading of WatchPAT™ sleep studies that can be sent transparently for interpretation by a local Interpreting
Physician or from a national network of telemedicine to a Board-certified
Interpreting Physicians. After interpretation the sleep study results will be attached to the patient’s record. The regular, comprehensive WatchPAT™ sleep study report is available for printing, export, and analysis. All actions performed in the CloudPAT described above are performed from a secure website. Each user will have his own permissions and restrictions that enable to see only her/his sleep patients. All data is securely stored and backed up on the Web.
1.4. Overview
Sleep apnea is considered a major public health problem. The prevalence of the syndrome is estimated at 2% to 5% in the adult population. Obstructive
Sleep apnea is characterized by recurrent events of complete or partial obstruction of the upper airways during sleep with the presence of breathing effort, while Central Sleep apnea is characterized by no respiratory effort.
Both conditions often lead to hypoxemia, and/or arousals associated with sympathetic nervous system activation. The diagnosis and assessment of the sleep apnea patient is usually based on apnea-hypopnea index (AHI – the number of Apneas, and Hypopneas per hour of sleep) and / or the Respiratory
Disturbance Index (RDI) which is AHI plus Respiratory Effort Related
Arousals (RERA), along with sleep architecture. The common consequences of this sleep disruption are daytime sleepiness, poor daytime performance and increased vulnerability to accidents. Cardiovascular complications such as systemic/pulmonary hypertension, ischemic heart disease and arrhythmias are the major sequel of sleep apnea in the adult population.
The WatchPAT™ device is worn on the wrist and utilizes a plethysmographic based finger–mounted probe, to measure the PAT (Peripheral Arterial Tone) signal. The PAT signal is a measurement of the pulsatile volume changes in the fingertip arteries which reflects the relative state of the arterial vasomotor activity, and thus indirectly the level of sympathetic activation. Peripheral arterial vasoconstriction, which mirrors sympathetic activation, is shown as attenuation in the PAT signal amplitude. The PAT signal is recorded continuously and stored on a device’s memory along with pulse rate (derived from the PAT signal), together with either data from oximetry channels
CloudPAT Page 8 Operation Manual
Itamar Medical Ltd.
integrated into the uPAT probe (WP200U), or from a built-in pulse-oximetry sensor (WP200) and an actigraph (embedded in the device). Snoring and Body
Position signals are generated from the SBP/RESBP integrated sensor
(optional). The RESBP (Respiratory Effort Snoring and Body Position) sensor records the subject’s chest movement signal in addition to the snoring and body position signals that are included with the SBP sensor. Following the sleep study, in an offline procedure, the recordings are uploaded to a web server and analyzed using the proprietary CloudPAT software.
CloudPAT uses the zzzPAT’s analysis . The study data can be downloaded to a local PC in case the whole night data needs to be viewed and the automatically detected events need to be revised manually using the zzzPAT.
This manual provides the information necessary for routine use of CloudPAT software.

1.5. Terminology
CloudPAT supports various types of users and entities.
o Office – a practice responsible to dispensing the tests. Office can include one or more referring physicians, as well as technicians and administrative staff. o Referring Physician – the primary physician or dentist prescribing the sleep test. o User – typically a Provider such as a technician or a nurse, but might also be a physician. This is the most common type of user using CloudPAT functions such as Creating a new study, Uploading a study, Viewing reports and
Managing Patient Information (see Section 3).
o Interpreting Physician– a physician (typically Board-certified) performing the sleep study analysis, interpretation, diagnosis and recommendations. This is another type of user using CloudPAT functions: Reviewing and interpreting studies and Managing templates for diagnosis and recommendations (see
o Patient – the person who undergoes the sleep study.
1.6. Minimum requirements

Then you will be asked to select an Interpreting Physician for this study.
You will be able to change the Interpreting Physician during the upload process and later on, once the study is uploaded from the study page. As long as there is no Interpreting Physician (leaving this field empty) the report is not sent for interpretation and final report cannot be generated.
It is recommended to review the study and correct all the patient and study information that needs update before sending it to Interpreting Physician.
Note
There are few patient details that might change the
analysis. See section 3.4.2.6 for more details.
Note
The office can update the patient’s details as long as the report wasn’t electronically signed. Once the report is electronically signed, the modified patient data will not be included in the report.
To prevent double work for the Interpreting Physician and the need to open signed report, it is recommended to not assign the study until all patient and study fields are updated correctly.

3.2.2. First Time Installation
The first time you run the Initialization process or upload form the WP device, a small one-time PC-App will be downloaded from CloudPAT.
Your browser might only prompt you for the installation after a failed attempt to
initialize device / upload (see Figure 16), or might prompt you before, but still fail and
prompt you again one time afterwards (see Figure 17) - both are normal, depending
on the browser and its setting. You should download the PC-App and run its
installation - follow your browser instructions (see Figure 18). Figure 19 and Figure
20 depict the download and run processes in Firefox and Chrome respectively.
Once it is installed – approve the use of the application as default (see Figure 21).

Frequently asked questions
WatchPAT™ is a non-invasive home care device for patients suspected of having sleep-related breathing disorders. It is a diagnostic tool that detects sleep-related breathing disorders, sleep stages, snoring levels, and body position. The device generates a Peripheral Arterial Tonometry (PAT) Respiratory Disturbance Index (PRDI), Apnea-Hypopnea index (PAHI), and a comprehensive report for the physician.
WatchPAT™ is designed to help diagnose sleep-related breathing disorders like sleep apnea. It monitors a patient's sleep patterns and respiratory activity, providing valuable data for healthcare professionals to make informed decisions about diagnosis and treatment.
WatchPAT™ uses a finger-mounted probe that measures the PAT (Peripheral Arterial Tone) signal. The PAT signal is a measure of pulsatile volume changes in fingertip arteries, reflecting the arterial vasomotor activity, which is linked to sympathetic activation. It records the PAT signal, pulse rate, and data from oximetry channels or a built-in pulse-oximetry sensor, along with an actigraph. The data is then analyzed to identify breathing disorders, sleep stages, snoring levels, and body position.
The device is worn on the wrist during sleep. After the study, the data is uploaded to a web server and analyzed using the CloudPAT software. The results are then presented in a comprehensive report for the physician.
