Home Sleep Studies

Medicare eligible home sleep studies are bulk-billed.

A home sleep study is a sleep test performed in the comfort of your own home.This Is an extensive testing of your sleep looking at the brain waves (EEG), heart monitor (ECG), eye movements (EOG),chest and abdominal movements, chin movements, leg and arm movements, your body position during sleep and most importantly your oxygen level at night and if you stop breathing during your sleep.

Majority of patients with sleep apnoea are suitable for a home sleep study and doing a test in the comfort of your own home gives more accurate reading of your sleep pattern. However not all patients are suitable for a home sleep study.

Patients with severe cardiac or Respiratory conditions and patients with neurological and psychiatric conditions are not suitable for home studies.These patients require a sleep study in a sleep lab in a hospital.
