以色列腕式睡眠监测仪.docx

以色列腕式睡眠监测仪 Watch-Pat Watch-PAT由Technion以色列技术学院研究人员2005年研制成功。并在哈佛医学院附属睡眠中心以及其他中心进行了检测。 Watch-PAT was successfully developed by researchers at the Technion Israel institute of technology in 2005. And tested at sleep center affiliated Harvard medical school and other centers. 它是一种无需技术人员参与，便携式的阻塞性睡眠呼吸暂停（OSA）诊断系统。一种小型的腕式装置，却是一个可以满足绝大多数尚未诊断OSA病人的可移动，可靠，易于使用的诊断评估工具。它的费用低廉，适合于追踪持续性正压通气（CAPA），口腔用具及五官科手术后病人的需求。Watch-Pat为睡眠医学病人可以住在家里，舒适的得到诊断开创了新的临床通道。 The Watch-PAT is a portable sleep diagnostic system to diagnose obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) without the attendance of a technologist. It is a small wrist-mounted device which fulfills the unmet need for an ambulatory, reliable and patient friendly diagnostic evaluation tool that is accessible to the great number of undiagnosed OSA patients. The Watch-PAT is a cost effective means for follow up treatment of patients on CPAP ,Oral Appliances and post ENT surgery . The Watch-PAT opens new clinical avenues for the practice of sleep medicine -patients can be diagnosed in the comfort of their own home. 除了其它常用生理检测，Watch-Pat检测末梢动脉张力（PAT）。不同于其它便携式装置，Watch-Pat除了提供量化的呼吸暂停信息，还可以提供大量其它的睡眠信息，这些信息可与睡眠实验室的临床数据相比美。Watch-Pat比任何其它水平的装置提供更多信息，然而它简洁，可靠数据的获取并不需要人员值班条件。 The Watch-PAT utilizes Peripheral Arterial Tonometry (PAT) in addition to other common physiological measurements. Unlike other portable devices, the Watch-PAT provides in addition to quantifiable apnea information, extensive sleep information, clinically comparable to sleep data obtained in a sleep lab. While providing more clinical information than any other Level III or level IV devices, the Watch-PAT provides for the simplest and most reliable data acquisition in a non-attended setting. Watch-Pat获取的数据由已经装置在电脑的Itamar医学专利，便于用户使用的软件-zzzPAT分析。下载数据后仅仅几分钟，通过及其复杂高端的运算法则，自动提供一份完整的研究报告，因而除外主观性为呼吸事件平分。与其它多数医院环境需要一周时间等待分析报告相比较，这种即刻产生报告的方法，能够使病人减少拖延，当天即开始治疗。 The data acquired by the Watch-PAT is analyzed by Itamar Medicals proprietary user friendly software-zzzPAT which is installed on a comp
