Company at a Glance<br />

www.Itamar-Medical.com<br />

Itamar Medical Ltd. is a public traded (TASE: ITMR) bio-medical technology company. Itamar develops and<br />

markets noninvasive diagnostic medical equipment based on the proprietary PAT (Peripheral Arterial<br />

Tone) Signal. The PAT Signal serves as a noninvasive window to the Cardiovascular and Autonomic<br />

Nervous Systems.<br />

The PAT Signal is acquired by measuring pulsatile arterial volume changes in the fingertip by specialized<br />

noninvasive probes. Itamar’s FDA cleared and CE marked PAT-based products include:<br />

• Endo-PAT2000: noninvasive, office-based, user-independent device for endothelial function<br />

assessment – the precursor (earliest clinically detectable stage) of cardiovascular disease.<br />

• Watch-PAT200: ambulatory diagnosis of sleep-related breathing disorders and sleep staging<br />

(Wake/REM/Deep Sleep/Light Sleep stages).<br />

Both devices are used in preeminent clinical institutions, research centers and pharmaceutical clinical phase<br />

studies in over 40 countries, which have yielded nearly 300 publications.<br />

Sleep testing - at home<br />

Considered “best in class,” WatchPAT (FDA cleared and CE marked) is a wrist mounted device for at-home<br />

testing of sleep apneas and sleep staging (REM/Deep Sleep/Light Sleep/Wake stages). WatchPAT also<br />

measures snoring & body position and provides a perfect combination of natural sleep at home with sleeplab<br />

level data.<br />

WatchPAT works without the multiple cables and electrodes needed by other technologies that provide indepth<br />

analysis of sleep, so it has an incredibly low failure rate. Yet the physician gets a comprehensive report<br />

with all the clinical parameters needed for patient treatment and monitoring. While the data are calculated<br />

automatically by the WatchPAT’s software, the physician can easily edit the data as well.<br />

Noninvasive cardiovascular risk assessment<br />

Atherosclerosis is the clinical manifestation of endothelial dysfunction. Leading the field of endothelial<br />

function assessment, EndoPAT (FDA cleared and CE marked) is used in pre-eminent clinical institutions,<br />

research centers and Pharma studies. The noninvasive EndoPAT has been validated by nearly 100<br />

publications and abstracts, and it provides clinicians with reliable and reproducible results in a 15-minute,<br />

office-based test.<br />
