Sources Sought Notice for WatchPAT 300 Home Sleep Apnea Test System The Department of Veterans Affairs, Network Contracting Office 21 is conducting market research to identify potential sources capable of providing a Home Sleep Apnea Test System (HSAT) for VA beneficiaries in the San Francisco, CA area. The proposed NAICS Code is 339112, Surgical and Medical Instrument Manufacturing, and the corresponding small business size is 1,000 employees. Salient Characteristics of WatchPAT 300: WatchPAT 300 is an FDA-cleared, in-home apnea testing device which utilizes the proprietary Peripheral Arterial Tone signal, a measure approved for use in apnea testing in the 2017 AASM HSAT Clinical Practice guidelines. This measure allows for accurate and reliable sleep apnea testing while avoiding the complexity and discomfort associated with traditional airflow-based systems. This allows participants to apply the device at home with a documented 98% study success rate and 89% correlation to PSG. The device contains seven channels with four different respiratory indices and measures sleep staging. By analyzing sleep and wake states, the device can calculate the AHI and RDI based on true sleep time rather than the total recording time, thus reducing the risk of misdiagnosis and misclassification that has been reported up to 20% of the time when based on total recording time. It can identify central sleep apnea from other apnea and hyper apnea events through use of its sensor and an algorithm. All capable businesses are encouraged to reply.
