WITHINGS UNVEILS SLEEP ANALYZER, A NON-INVASIVE SLEEP SENSOR THAT PROVIDESMEDICAL-GRADE SLEEP ANALYSIS AND SLEEP APNEA DETECTION FROM HOME
Available in Europe and the United Kingdom, the CE cleared, under-the-mattress pad wascreated with sleep experts and has been clinically validated through a recent study

Issy-les-Moulineaux, France – April 28, 2020 – Withings, a pioneer of the connected health movement,
today announces Sleep Analyzer, an unobtrusive sleep tracker that utilizes the world’s most advanced
sensors and technology to analyze sleep and detect sleep apnea, a highly prevalent and underdiagnosed
disease. Available in the EU and U.K., after receiving CE marking for medical devices, Sleep Analyzer has
been created in conjunction with sleep experts and clinically validated to provide medical-grade analysisand sleep apnea detection all from the comfort of the home. It will be available in the U.S., pending FDA
clearance.
Medical Grade Insights from Your Own BedOne billion people are estimated to suffer from mild to severe sleep apnea, a serious condition that canlead to major health and cardiovascular issues. However, 8 out 10 people don’t know they have it.1 An
abstract released in 2018 by ResMed, also noted that around 175 million Europeans have obstructive
sleep apnea. Continuing Withings’ commitment to design connected health devices that are simple forpeople to use daily to track and identify major health conditions early, the company has produced thefirst at-home sleep apnea detection device that doesn't need to be worn.
Requiring only a one-time setup, Sleep Analyzer includes an advanced sound sensor that specificallytracks snoring signals, one indicator of sleep apnea that’s among the numerous monitored by the mat.
When users get up in the morning, they can see if any sleep apnea episodes occurred over night in theaccompanying Health Mate app. Results can be easily shared through the app with physicians or sleep
specialists for further review and diagnosis.
Clinical Validation
Sleep Analyzer’s sleep apnea detection capability has been validated through a clinical study with
Hôpital Antoine Béclère in France and Hôpital St-Pierre in Belgium. The study compared Sleep Analyzer
to a Polysomnography (PSG) analysis, the gold standard of medical sleep analysis that is performed onpatients in sleep clinics, to confirm the mat’s precision to perform diagnostic test of sleep apnea
syndrome to find moderate to severe cases. The clinical study that had 118 patient participants foundSleep Analyzer had similar average Apnea-Hypopnea Index (AHI) results, which measures the severity ofsleep, as a PSG. Sleep Analyzer’s average AHI was 32.5 compared to 32.8 by PSG.

Sleep Analyzer is a sleek 25” x 7.5” mat that fits seamlessly under the mattress and after a one-time
setup automatically provides an in-depth look at users’ nights. Like its predecessor, Withings Sleep, it
uses a pneumatic sensor to measure respiratory rate, body movement and continuous heart rate to
track users’ sleep cycles (deep, light and REM) and cycle durations as well as users’ overall sleep
durations and interruptions. Additionally, it uses the sound sensor to also detect snoring and share withusers the number of snoring episodes they experience each night and their durations.
Each morning, users can access their Sleep Score in the Health Mate app, which is a simple tounderstand interpretation of how well they slept that night before, based on sleep duration, depth
regularity and interruptions. Along with their Sleep Score, users can see all of their in-depth sleep data in
the Health Mate app for each night as well as overarching trends and receive insights into how to better
improve their overall sleep. All data collected by Sleep Analyzer can easily be shared with physicians
through the Health Mate app.
Thanks to an IFTTT integration, users can create home automation scenarios to control lights,
temperature and other smart devices just by getting in and out of bed.
Availability
Sleep Analyzer is available in Europe from April 28 for €129,95 and in the U.K. for £119.95 atwithings.com and Amazon and replaces its predecessor Withings Sleep. It will be available in the U.S.,
following FDA clearance.
