What Is Sleep Study?
A sleep study is a detailed diagnostic test that helps identify sleep disorders and understand what happens in your body while you sleep. At Somnotech Sleep Clinic, we perform Comprehensive Advanced Sleep Study (Level 1 Polysomnography), considered the gold standard for diagnosing sleep-disordered breathing and other sleep-related conditions. Our clinic provides accurate, reliable diagnostic assessments using advanced technology.
The study provides objective clinical data that helps ensure an accurate diagnosis and personalised treatment plan.
Comprehensive Level 1 Polysomnography
Conducted overnight in a controlled clinical setting, this comprehensive sleep study provides a detailed evaluation of sleep quality and breathing patterns. The test simultaneously monitors brain activity, eye movements, muscle tone, breathing effort, heart rate, and oxygen saturation, providing a complete picture of what happens during sleep.
This level of assessment allows for precise diagnosis, helps identify the severity of the condition, and supports the development of a personalised treatment plan based on objective clinical data. Our Polysomnography test is performed using advanced technology under expert supervision.
