Polysomnography Test

A polysomnography test, also known as a sleep study, is a detailed overnight assessment used to diagnose sleep disorders such as obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA), insomnia and restless leg syndrome. The test records multiple body functions during sleep, including brain activity, breathing patterns, heart rate, oxygen levels and muscle movements. It helps specialists understand how well your body rests and whether breathing or neurological issues are disrupting your sleep. This test is particularly suited to people who snore loudly, have excessive daytime tiredness, morning headaches or unexplained fatigue.

During a polysomnography test, you will stay overnight at our sleep clinic in a comfortable, private room. Small sensors are placed on your scalp, chest and legs to monitor your sleep stages and breathing throughout the night. The data collected provides a complete picture of your sleep quality and helps identify any interruptions or abnormal patterns. The ENT Consultancy’s specialists use this information to make an accurate diagnosis and create a personalised treatment plan which may include lifestyle adjustments, medical devices or surgical options to improve sleep quality.

Quality sleep is essential for concentration, mood and long‑term wellbeing. Poor or disrupted sleep can affect energy levels, work performance and cardiovascular health. If you’re struggling with persistent tiredness or symptoms of sleep apnoea, take the first step towards better rest and book a Polysomnography Test with The ENT Consultancy today.
