Indications for Use
The Watch-PAT200U (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.
Device Story
Watch-PAT200U (WP200U) is a non-invasive home-use diagnostic aid for sleep-related breathing disorders. Input signals include peripheral arterial tonometry (PAT) and oximetry from a finger probe, actigraphy from a wrist-worn controller, and optional snoring/body position/chest movement data from a chest sensor. The device processes these signals to generate respiratory indices (pRDI, pAHI, pAHIc), sleep stages, and cardiac arrhythmia flags (Atrial Fibrillation and Premature Beats). The system is operated by patients at home; data is analyzed by physicians to supplement clinical history and diagnostic information. The arrhythmia feature flags suspected events for physician review; it is not a diagnostic device for cardiac arrhythmia and does not replace traditional diagnostic methods. The device benefits patients by providing supplemental cardiac and respiratory information during sleep studies, aiding in the identification of patients requiring further investigation.
Clinical Evidence
Clinical performance evaluated in 157 subjects during overnight sleep studies. The device's capability to identify arrhythmic events (atrial fibrillation and premature beats) was compared against cardiologist-scored ECG channels from a polysomnography (PSG) system. Results demonstrated acceptable performance for detecting clinically relevant arrhythmic events as supplemental information.
Technological Characteristics
Wrist-worn controller with actigraphy; unified finger PAT probe (optical plethysmography); optional chest sensor (snoring, body position, chest movement). Uses PAT technology with a uniform pressure field to improve signal dynamic range. Software-based arrhythmia detection algorithm. Complies with IEC 60601-1 (safety) and IEC 60601-1-2 (EMC).
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients 12 years and older suspected of sleep-related breathing disorders; PAHIc parameter indicated for patients 17 years and older. Used as a diagnostic aid for sleep-related breathing disorders, sleep staging, snoring level, and body position.
Regulatory Classification

## Intended Use / Indication for Use:
The Watch-PAT200U (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.
## Device Description:
The Watch-PAT200U System (WP200U) 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 Respiratory disturbance index (pRDI), apnea - hypopnea index (pAHI), central apnea - hypopnea index (pAHIc) and sleep staging (Rapid Eye Movement (REM), Light Sleep, Deep Sleep and Wake) based on Peripheral Arterial Tonometry (PAT), a non-invasive technology. In accordance with physician discretion, the WP200U may be connected to a chest sensor for measuring snoring level, body position states and chest movements.
The WP200U device consists of the following: (1) unified finger PAT probe to measure PAT and oximeter signals; (2) actigraph, which provides a signal that is used to determine periods of sleep/wake based on the motion of the wrist; (3) chest sensor to measure snoring level, body position and chest movements (optional); (4) electronics, which include a controller that records the signals provided by the uPAT finger probe, actigraph and chest sensor; (5) tamper-Proof Bracelet (Optional); (6) power supply; (7) Wrist strap and (8) Management and Analysis Software Program.
The subject WP200U introduces new algorithms to its software allowing the identification of arrhythmia events occurred during the night - Atrial Fibrillation and Premature Beats.
{5}------------------------------------------------
Beside the introduction of the new arrhythmia information, the SW provides identical output information as that previously provided for the predicate.
The additional arrhythmia information presented by the modified WP200U device follows the AASM (American Academy of Sleep Medicine) guidelines to provide the sleep physician with information regarding cardiac events occurred during the night. The WP200U arrhythmia feature is to be used for informational use only, to flag patients suspected of having arrhythmias, thereby aiding the physician to decide if further arrhythmia investigation is needed. The device is not intended to be used as a diagnostic device for cardiac arrhythmia and it is not intended to replace traditional methods of diagnosis. The WP200U's arrhythmia detection is not intended for use in life supporting or sustaining systems or monitor and alarm devices.
The new analysis provides the sleep physician with additional information to that of the WP200U cleared capabilities of detecting sleep disorders, to be considered in conjunction with the physician's knowledge of patient background, clinical history, symptoms, and other diagnostic information.
## Substantial Equivalence:
## Intended Use
The intended use of the subject Watch-PAT200U ("WP200U") remains exactly the same as the intended use of its predicate, the WP200U (K161579) as a home device for diagnosis of sleep related breathing disorders.
The WP200U's new analysis of cardiac arrhythmia is offered as supplemental information to its sleep information. The device is not intended to be used as a diagnostic device for any cardiac arrhythmia. All other information supplied, is the same as the information supplied by the predicate device.
For the added capability of identifying arrythmia during sleep, the company selected a reference device, Somté PSG System, cleared under K072201 intended for recording physiological parameters to aid in the diagnosis of respiratory and/or cardiac related sleep disorders by qualified physicians. The-Somté includes an analysis package for arrhythmia detection and classification ('ECG Analysis package'). It also provides ECG statistics during respiratory events and R-R interval (heart rate).
The intended use statement as previously cleared in K161579 was not changed and this capability of providing information regarding the cardiac arrythmia events is specified in the labeling of the subject device and does not raise additional or new questions of safety or effectiveness.

Two short videos show you everything — or skip straight to the written tutorial if you'd rather read. You can reopen this any time from the Tutorial button in the top bar.
Part 1 — Search, results, and everyday workflows 16 min
Part 2 — Embeddings: the galaxy map 3 min
1. Search: exact and fuzzy
Type a phrase like "coronary artery calcification" into the search box. You get two kinds of results. Exact results match the literal phrase — prefix searches work ("coronary artery calcificati") but suffix searches do not. Fuzzy results match on the meaning and intent of your phrase rather than the exact words, and are sorted by relevance score. Hover over the Exact or Fuzzy badge on any row to see exactly why it matched.
Use the checkboxes above the results to narrow: SaMD keeps only software-only devices, AI / ML keeps only devices with AI.
Exact vs. fuzzy search: what's the difference?
Exact matches on the literal phrase (prefix search works, suffix does not). Fuzzy matches on the meaning and intent of the phrase rather than the exact words. Hover over the badge on any row to see why it matched.
You search "coronary artery calcification" and want only software devices with AI. What two filters do you apply?
Narrow by SaMD (software-only devices), then narrow by AI/ML (devices with AI).
2. The results table
Scroll right in the results table. The intended use is extracted for you — no need to open the PDF. The device story gives a high-level snapshot of what the device does and how it's used. The AI Performance sub-table shows each output name, acceptance criteria, observed values, and development/test dataset descriptions — the same format Innolitics uses for regulatory strategy outputs, and the fastest high-level fingerprint of an AI device. It is AI-generated but has been very reliable in practice.
Where do you find a device's intended use without opening the PDF?
Scroll right in the search results table. The intended use column is extracted for you; no need to dig into the 510(k) summary PDF.
What does the AI Performance sub-table show, and why is it useful?
Output name, acceptance criteria, observed values, development dataset description, and test dataset description. It's the same format we use for regulatory strategy output and Fast 510(k) input, and the fastest high-level fingerprint of an AI device. AI-generated but reliable in practice.
3. Judging fuzzy relevance
Fuzzy results trail off in relevance as you scroll. Use three signals to decide how far down to go: the fuzzy badge explanations, the intended use column, and whether your target output (e.g., Cobb angle) still appears in the AI Performance sub-table. Once it stops appearing, you're past the relevant zone. A top hit with a low score (~0.4) and a stretched explanation is a hint the closest predicates are far away — the project may be headed for De Novo. Note the fuzzy search is a pattern match: it doesn't handle negation ("not") well, and hardware devices can appear — filter by SaMD/AI ML to cut them.
How do you judge how far down fuzzy search results to go?
Use the relevancy signals: the fuzzy badge explanations, the intended use column, and whether the target output (e.g., Cobb angle) still appears in the AI Performance sub-table. Once it stops appearing, results are trailing off in relevancy.
4. Device detail page: chat and citations
Click a device name to open its detail page: device facts on the left, a chat window on the right. Ask something like "Describe the training data". The answer carries little citation bubbles — click one to jump to the highlighted passage in the source PDF, so you can verify every AI answer against the document. There's also a Download PDF button for sharing.
How do you verify an AI chat answer on the device detail page?
Click the citation bubbles to jump to the relevant highlight in the source document.
Reading rule for every project: how many summaries do you read in full?
At least the three most relevant 510(k) or De Novo summaries, in full. After that, use targeted chat questions to confirm your memory quickly. The tool supports this professional habit — it doesn't replace it.
5. Side-by-side comparison
Select multiple rows in the results table (aim for under ~10), then open the PDF Viewer tab. Ask one question — it goes to all selected devices in parallel, each with citations. This is the fastest way to compare and contrast devices: training data, PCCP scope, how they handled adding new scanners, and so on.
What does the side-by-side PDF viewer mode do?
Select multiple devices, open the PDF viewer tab, and ask one question (e.g., "Describe the training data"). It queries all selected devices simultaneously with citations, so you can compare and contrast quickly.
6. Collections
With rows selected, go to the Collections tab and create a labeled collection (e.g., "Cobb Angle Project"). Reload that selection any time — before a client call, pull up the collection and ask questions across all of its devices at once.
How do you save a set of selected devices for later use?
Select the rows, go to the Collections tab, and create a labeled collection (e.g., "Cobb Angle Project"). You can reload the selection anytime and carry it into the PDF viewer and other tabs that support selections.
7. Product codes and the regulations tree
Click a product code in the results to jump to it in the regulations tree — identification text, sibling product codes, and devices you can open in a PDF viewer on the right. Click a regulation number to see its identification, special controls, and related product codes. You can also search by product code or regulation number at the top of the tree. Always read the special controls if any exist for your device — it broadens your search and sharpens pre-kickoff research.
What can you do from the regulations tree view?
Browse product codes and regulation numbers, read the identification text and special controls, browse sibling product codes, open device PDFs on the right, and search by product code or regulation number at the top of the tree.
8. Chart view
Click Show Chart and segment by regulation number (or product code) to see which regulations dominate your result set. Clicking a regulation takes you into the regulations tree. Great for spotting that most matches are, say, hardware laparoscopic devices — a cue to go back and filter.
How do you see which regulations dominate a search result set?
Click "Show Chart" and segment by Regulation Number. Clicking a regulation takes you to the regulations tree.
9. The predicate graph
Open the Predicates tab for a family-tree view of predicate relationships. Click a node to trace its parents and children; selections from search carry over pre-selected. Commonly predicated devices are worth reading — a lot of people predicated them for a reason. The visual lineage is also handy on client calls, e.g. to show how a predicate family evolved and justify why your predicate still holds.
In the predicate graph, why are commonly predicated devices worth reading?
A lot of people predicated them for a reason. Clicking a node traces parents and children, and selections from search carry over pre-selected.
10. Embeddings: the galaxy map
The Embeddings tab plots every matching document in a 2-D "galaxy map" where semantically similar devices cluster together. Hover or click clusters to explore, and let AI label the clusters for you. Embeddings beat product codes for grouping: two devices can carry different product codes (LLZ vs. QIH) yet do the same thing — the embedding captures the meaning of the intended use and device story. This is also exactly how retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) works under the hood, and it makes a great visual on client calls.
Try it yourself
Head to the search page and work through a few of these AI/ML fuzzy searches to build intuition: perivascular fat on CT · aortic valve calcification opportunistic screening on noncontrast CT · breast cancer prediction on digital pathology slides · autism detection · gestational age prediction · a hearing aid that can also detect a pulse · foundation model based analysis of ECG · large language models · penetration test. Watch how the relevance scores, intended use, and AI Performance tables tell you when results stop being meaningful.
