Somnoware

Introduced the Somnoware Assistant feature, which includes the new Patient Snapshot pane. This pane displays patient information, such as insurance status, demographics and notes, so you can see patient information without navigating across multiple tabs.

For more information, see Somnoware Assistant.

When you select a date range to filter studies in Study Manager, Physician Manager or DME Manager, Somnoware now displays studies from the selected start date and selected end date as well as the dates within the range.

Users can now upload documents to the patient record when duplicate patient and clinic records exist.

Questionnaires are now automatically assigned to patients scheduled for sleep studies in HST Scheduler.

Oxygen desaturation values in impressions for EnsoSleep PPG^™ reports now display correctly.

Polysmith^® studies no longer display as "Technician-only schedules" in the AST Scheduler.

Users can now view the required PIN field when checking out WatchPAT^™ ONE devices from HST Scheduler.

Patient names no longer disappear from the AST Scheduler after the study status updates.

In Interpretation reports, press the "#" key to filter impression statements that begin with keywords.

Added support for Neurovirtual^® BWAnalysis polysomnography (PSG) software in the Somnoware Device Interface (SDI). You can now import, review and score BWAnalysis PSG studies in Somnoware.

For more information, see Neurovirtual integration.

Added support for the Onera^® Sleep Test System (STS) for study ordering, tracking and review.

For more information, see Onera Sleep Test System integration.

Physicians can now use a dictation tool when editing interpretation reports. Click the Start transcription icon to speak and add text at the cursor in real time.

For more information, see Generate interpretation report.

The interpretation report editor has been upgraded to CKEditor 5. This upgrade supports new features such as the dictation tool and provides an updated editing experience.

For more information, see Interpretation report editor.

When adding or editing users, you can add and save text in the Specialty field.

Multiple users can no longer update the schedule simultaneously without refreshing the page. This ensures the Scheduler module captures device serial numbers and users can download sleep studies.

Somnoware now keeps Impression, Diagnosis and Recommendations aligned by using the same selected metric (Apnea–Hypopnea Index [AHI], Alternate AHI or Obstructive AHI [OAHI]) across all sections. This change prevents conflicting results and helps to keep reports consistent and accurate.

The activation code for a patient's NightOwl^™ home sleep test (HST) is now displayed in the Timeline on the Patient Profile > Summary tab.

Somnoware now displays the correct scoring technician on the patient's timeline for NightOwl and EnsoSleep^™ PPG studies.

New EnsoData^™ data points were added for EnsoSleep^™ photoplethysmography (PPG) studies.

For more information, see EnsoSleep PPG integration.

Improved accessibility across the platform by fixing issues with screen reader support, keyboard navigation and clear page structure.

For more information, see Accessibility.

The Noxturnal^® application no longer freezes when users click Save & Generate for a Nox T3^® or Nox T3s^® study from the Somnoware device interface (SDI) toolbar. This issue occurred when users had a custom template with a trailing space in the report file name. SDI now tries to find the scored report file up to three times and stops the workflow with a Report Generation Failed message if it can't find the file.

Added the Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM) enrollment option to the DME prescription form so physicians or lab managers can indicate if the patient will enroll in remote patient monitoring during their sleep therapy.

Expanded pediatric interpretation template coverage:

Height and weight automatically default to metric units for patients classified as pediatric or infant, which is determined by the pediatric age setting configured in facility settings. The units can be manually changed to imperial at any time by admins or clinicians.

Impressions in interpretation reports are now automatically refreshed when physicians switch from an adult to pediatric template. The following interpretation logic is available for each template:

For more information, see Pediatric and infant workflow.

Old search results in the HST Scheduler module no longer reappear after new searches, even when searching by a different medical record number (MRN).
