Brief summary

The aim of the study is to look at whether diagnosing obstructive sleep apnoea overnight at home is as reliable and accurate as diagnosing it in an attended specialised sleep laboratory overnight. Patients undergo both studt types and act as their own controls. The person analysing the overnight recordings is blinded to the patient name so that study results cannot be connected.

Interventions

Randomised study of laboratory versus home based polysomnography (PSG). Subjects receive 2 laboratory (compumedics S series sleep system) and 1 home PSG (COmpumedics Siesta sleep system) over a 2 week period. Subjects are their own controls.
