be easy for patients to use.
The “Smart Check” feature
indicates if a good study was
recorded by lighting green
or red. SleepView uses a RIP
belt, is CPAP compatible,
and can collect multi-night
studies. The optional ID check
sensor can verify patient
identity. The HIPAA compliant
Web Portal offers access to
studies, scoring, and reports,

The Zmachine Insight provides
accurate EEG-based sleep stag-
ing information in a device. It
automatically scores wake, light
sleep, slow wave sleep, and REM
every 30 seconds. The Insight uses
self-stick EEG sensors that are
located outside the hairline for easy
application. Results and EEG data
are stored locally on a removable
microSD card and can be imported
into a spreadsheet, statistical pack-
age, or free Zmachine Data Viewer
software.
Total sleep time measurement
allows for near-PSG respiratory
indices, accurate AHI, and less false
negatives. The Unified single-finger
sensor is designed for better com-
fort, simplicity, and reliability. Cloud
interpretation services by board
certified sleep physicians are avail-
able in all 50 states.
Scalable up to Type I (ambulatory
or online) Bluetooth device with
add-ons; auto start option; high
resolution screen including signal
display, signal test features (includ-
ing impedance measurement) and
status information; sound recording
with snap-on-cannula microphone,
wide sensor range available (dispos-
able and reusable); comes with
nonlicensed version of RemLogic
(globally largest install base for
HSAT); 24/7 technical support.
Connects to computers via USB
port, connects to computer via
serial port, will deliver results
while patient is on CPAP, includes
video instruction for patient, wire-
less, 24/7 technical support, and
analysis, scoring, and reporting
software.
