Company at a Glance<br />

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

develops and markets noninvasive diagnostic medical equipment based on proprietary<br />

PAT (Peripheral Arterial Tone) Signal. The PAT Signal serves as a noninvasive window<br />

to the Cardiovascular and Autonomic Nervous Systems.<br />

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

by specialized noninvasive probes. Itamar’s FDA cleared and CE marked PAT-based<br />

products are:<br />

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

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

disease.<br />

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

staging (Wake/REM/Deep sleep/light sleep stages).<br />

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

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

<strong>Technology</strong> and Product(s)<br />

Sleep testing - at home<br />

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

device for at-home testing of sleep apneas and sleep staging (REM/Deep Sleep/Light<br />

Sleep/Wake stages). WatchPAT also measures snoring and body position and provides a<br />

perfect combination of natural sleep at home with sleep-lab level data.<br />

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

which provide in-depth analysis of sleep, so it has an incredibly low failure rate. Yet the<br />

physician gets a comprehensive report with all the clinical parameters needed for patient<br />

treatment and monitoring. While the data is calculated automatically by the WatchPAT’s<br />

software, the physician can easily edit the data too.<br />

Noninvasive cardiovascular risk assessment<br />

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

of endothelial function assessment, EndoPAT (FDA cleared and CE marked) is used in<br />

pre-eminent clinical institutions, research centers and Pharma studies. The noninvasive<br />

EndoPAT has been validated by nearly 100 publications and abstracts and provides<br />

clinicians with reliable and reproducible results in an office-based, 15 minute test.<br />
