Home Sleep Studies
What is home sleep study diagnostic sleep test?
The home sleep study diagnostic sleep test is used by sleep specialists to diagnose disturbed breathing patterns during sleep com- monly known as “sleep apnea”. But unlike a traditional in-lab sleep test; or polysomnogram, which are used to diagnose a multitude of sleep disturbances, Home Sleep Testing can only diagnose sleep disordered breathing.
Is a home sleep study diagnostic sleep test right for Me?
In most cases where sleep apnea is suspected, a home sleep study diagnostic sleep test is completely appropriate and effective.
How does home sleep study diagnostic sleep test work?
Home Sleep Testing is simple. It records your breathing efforts while you sleep from sensors near your nose and an elas tic belt around your chest. Your blood oxygen levels and pulse are monitored by a sensor on your fingertip. The procedure is painless, and placement of the belts and sensors is quick and easy. Should you have any questions, our staff is a phone call away to help guide you. In the morning, simply return the device, and results will be available to you within a few days. If positive, a number of treatment options will be reviewed with you, and the best option will be prescribed.
A home sleep study diagnostic sleep test, is quite simple but very accurate at diagnosing sleep breathing disorders such as Obstructive Sleep Apnoea (OSA), snoring, sleep hypopnea, mouth breathing, sleep choking etc. No need to wait on a long waiting list or have the inconvenience and stress of spending a night in a sleep hospital.
If you wish to have a home sleep study sleep diagnostic test please contact us so we can advise which test is suitable for your symptoms. Your diagnostic machine will be sent by courier with a full set of instructions. Once you have completed your test, return the device and we will interpret the results for you.

Frequently Asked Questions On Home Sleep Testing
_____________________________________________
Before The Home Sleep Test
What is a sleep test (Polysomnography)
For most patients, a sleep study is a key diagnostic component of a sleep disorder evaluation. A sleep study, also called a polysomnogram (PSG), measures your brain wave activity, eye movements, muscle contractions, heart activity, breathing and blood oxygenation during sleep. This is done in a sleep clinic which can be NHS - (long waiting lists) or private sleep clinics (expensive)
What is a home sleep test (HST)?
A home sleep study is a modified sleep study that is performed in your home with a portable monitor. HST is used only to look for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).
What is the difference between a home sleep test and a sleep test performed in a Sleep Lab?
A home sleep test is performed in your home versus at a sleep lab. The portable monitoring device measures oxygen saturation, heart rate, air flow and effort. It will also record snoring and position. A sleep test that is performed in a sleep lab will measure the above, but will additionally measure brain waves, sleep time and leg movements.
Is an HST better than a sleep test performed at the sleep lab?
In patients with a high likelihood of moderate to severe sleep apnea, home sleep testing is comparable to tests performed in the sleep lab.
I've booked my equipment rental what happens now?
Once you have took the step to go ahead and make a rental commitment you will contacted by email to confirm the equipment you have rented, for how long, and when your rental equipment will be dispatched (by courier). If you prefer
you can come and collect - we will make arrangements directly with you for collection times.
I'm not really confident in setting up a home sleep test - can someone show me how to set up the equipment?
The service we offer is an online service and our costs reflect this. If however you really need the assurnace of a professional to demonstrate and instruct in the correct use of the rental equipment, we can offer this for a small consultation fee. Please telephone directly
for further details.
___________________________________________________________________________________
During the Home Sleep Test
How complicated is it to set up the equipment at home?
The equipment is generally quite simple to set up. There are a full set of instructions and guide that comes with the equipment or if you do need extra care we are simply a phone call away.
How do I get ready for the study?
After you change into your sleepwear, set up the portable monitor according to the instructions.
Will I be able to sleep with the monitor attached to me?
You may find it a bit strange at first, but most people do not find it uncomfortable or an obstacle to falling asleep.
How many hours do I need to sleep with the monitor?
You will need to sleep with the monitor all night.
Can I take my medications?
Please take your medications as usual. We also recommend that you discuss with your doctor whether your medications will affect the sleep study results.
Can I wear nail polish?
If you wear nail polish, please remove it from one finger to obtain a good signal from the finger clip oxygen sensor.
During the Home Sleep Test Can I have a nap?
It is important that you avoid napping on the day of the study.
Can I have caffeine?
Avoid caffeine (coffee, tea, colas, energy drinks, chocolates, etc.) after 12:00 noon on the day of the study.
Can I smoke?
Do whatever you would normally, however, we recommend that you do not smoke while wearing the device.
___________________________________________________________________________________
After the Home Sleep Test
How do I return the equipment?
After your home sleep test rental period, the monitor should either be dropped off at the location you received it, or returned via courier in the prepaid packaging.
What happens after my sleep study?
A large amount of information is collected during your sleep study. A sleep specialist will analyze this information and a formal report with recommendations will be sent to you. On the night of the study, the sleep technologists cannot provide you with any information about your testing results.
When will I receive my results?
It usually takes about a week for you to receive your formal report. Please schedule a follow-up visit with your physician after that time to discuss the findings and recommendations for treatment. If you have seen one of our specialists, we will contact you as soon as possible to discuss treatment options.
What if I’m diagnosed with obstructive sleep apnea?
If your test results show you have obstructive sleep apnea, your doctor will recommend you receive treatment. The most common and most effective treatment is CPAP.
What is CPAP and how will it help me?
CPAP is an acronym for Continuous Positive Airway Pressure.
CPAP is a small machine that delivers a steady, gentle flow of air delivered through a soft, pliable nasal mask worn over the nose. The machine forces air into the nasal passages at pressures high enough to keep the airway from collapsing, allowing normal breathing.
CPAP is currently the best treatment for severe obstructive sleep apnea. Daytime sleepiness improves or resolves. Heart function and hypertension also improve. And, importantly, the quality of life improves.
Will I need CPAP therapy for the rest of my life?
CPAP therapy is a lifetime treatment for most. However, some positive changes in lifestyle, such as weight reduction, may lead to a decrease in the therapeutic CPAP pressure or may eliminate the need for continued CPAP therapy. Only your physician, with assistance from the CPAP counselor, can make that determination, which is why it is important to make and keep your follow-up appointments.
What if I decide CPAP isn’t for me?
We recommend trying CPAP for at least a month or two. It does take a little while to adapt to using CPAP, but it remains the single most effective treatment for sleep apnea. If after trying CPAP you still decide it’s not for you, we encourage you to look into other treatment options.
Sleep apnea, if left untreated, can lead to more serious problems and may increase your risk for hypertension, heart disease, stroke, diabetes and depression.

Kia KA100 Therapy System
Non-CPAP Alternative Treatment
|
KAI Medical specializes in the development of sleep apnea therapy, sleep monitors, and non-contact respiratory monitoring devices.
Current methods of treating OSA include surgery, oral and nasal devices, invasive face masks, and bulky machines. KAI Medical is committed to providing alternative treatment methods to these current invasive and inconvenient treatments available.
Kai Medical improves the quality of life of people with respiratory ailments, including sleep apnea, by developing and marketing products that are more efficient, comfortable, and effective.
The KAI Apnea system is a home-based, medical system used
to treat adults diagnosed with OSA. The system monitors the
patients breathing while they sleep to detect an apnea event.
When an event is detected, the system activates a vibrating
adhesive patch worn on the neck to restore breathing. The device is designed to improve sleep quality by reducing the number and duration of apnea events that prevent normal breathing and disrupt sleep.
Features:
* Efficient, comfortable, CPAP alternative
* No masks, no hoses, no oral devices
* Breathe easily, comfortably, naturally
* For adults with Obstructive Sleep Apnea
The Kai 100 System
The KAI Apnea system is a home-based, medical system used to treat adults diagnosed with OSA. The system monitors the patients breathing while they sleep to detect an apnea event. When an event is detected, the system activates a vibrating adhesive patch worn on the neck to restore breathing. The device is designed to improve sleep quality by reducing the number and duration of apnea events that prevent normal breathing and disrupt sleep
Kia Apnea Components
The components operate together to monitor and detect sleep apnea events. Upon detection of an event, the sensor processing unit (pictured below) sends a signal to theadhesive neck patch (pictured top right), triggering a vibratory stimulus at increasing frequency and pulse durations to create a reflex reaction that opens the airway, and restores normal respiration without disrupting the patient from sleep. The KAI Apnea system provides comfortable, non-invasive sleep apnea treatment without surgery, medication, or continuous application of air pressure. It monitors breathing and apnea activity continuously and applies treatment only during an actual apnea event.
Kia Apnea Clinical Study
In a recent clinical study, Kai Apnea device users had an average of
46% Apnea-Hypopnea Index (AHI) reduction compared to device
off nights, with the number of arousals as measured by the Arousal
Index (AI) also improving

WatchPat Apnea Sleep Test
WatchPat 200 Home Sleep Study
|
WatchPAT is an FDA (US food and drug administration) approved diagnostic device that uses innovative technology to ensure the accurate detection of sleep apnea. Its ease of use is unparalleled and it is greatly complemented by the fact that WatchPAT testing is done in the comfort of your own bedroom, an environment that best reflects the pattern of your sleep habits. That fact alone may prove to be a lifeline for the millions of undiagnosed patients who are unwilling to spend the night away from home in a hospital sleep center.
WatchPAT represents the best that 21st century medicine and science have to offer for at-home testing. Thanks to WatchPAT’s ease-of-use and automated data analysis, you don’t have to wait to get your diagnosis. Once you return the WatchPAT to the online sleep clinic, you will receive an immediate detailed sleep report. This instantaneous report generation—compared to a lengthy wait in most hospital-based settings—allows you to initiate sleep apnea treatment without delay.
WatchPAT has excellent reliability with minimal failure rate (1%) during data acquisition or data analysis, and minimal technician time compared to PSG.
WatchPAT monitors changes in peripheral arterial tone and activity, as well as in blood oxygen saturation levels. It also identifies sleep apnea events just like the equipment used in polysomnography sleep studies performed in hospital sleep labs.
WatchPAT has been the subject of numerous clinical trials resulting in over 130 peer-reviewed papers and abstracts. Of these, 13 manuscripts validate WatchPAT by comparing it head-to-head with full polysomnography. In fact, more validation articles vs. PSG have been published in peer-reviewed journals about WatchPAT than with any other portable sleep-testing device.
WatchPAT is the most precise, user-friendly ambulatory sleep apnea diagnostic tool available. Its groundbreaking combination of technology and ease of use is unparalleled.
The Watch Pat home sleep study diagnostic sleep test measures actual time asleep not just time in bed like other home devices providing a more accurate assessment of sleep apnea.
Watch Pat’s Unique Clinical Features
• Real Sleep Time—measures actual time asleep—not just time in bed, like other home devices, providing a more accurate assessment of sleep apnea.
• RDI and AHI—special indices that determine the severity of sleep apnea.
• ODI (Oxygen Desaturation Index)—measurement of blood oxygen levels. When not enough oxygen reaches the brain, a person awakens from sleep.
• Heart Rate—the number of heart beats per minute while sleeping.
• Body Position—notes whether you sleep on your back (supine), front (prone) or side, all which influence apnea.
• Snoring Intensity (dB)—loud snoring is a major indicator of sleep apnea.
• Sleep Stages and Architecture (wake/light/deep)—the cyclical pattern of various NREM and REM sleep stages summarized in a chart called a hypnogram.
• REM/NREM Sleep—dreaming sleep characterized by rapid eye movement (REM), the shortest portion of the sleep cycle; Non-REM (NREM) sleep, the largest portion of the sleep cycle, has three separate stages and distinct electrical brainwave patterns.
• Sleep Fragmentation—repeated short interruptions of sleep throughout the night, reducing the total amount of time spent in the deepest level of sleep.
• Sleep Statistics

Kia KA100 Therapy System
Non-CPAP Alternative Treatment
|
KAI Medical specializes in the development of sleep apnea therapy, sleep monitors, and non-contact respiratory monitoring devices.
Current methods of treating OSA include surgery, oral and nasal devices, invasive face masks, and bulky machines. KAI Medical is committed to providing alternative treatment methods to these current invasive and inconvenient treatments available.
Kai Medical improves the quality of life of people with respiratory ailments, including sleep apnea, by developing and marketing products that are more efficient, comfortable, and effective.
The KAI Apnea system is a home-based, medical system used
to treat adults diagnosed with OSA. The system monitors the
patients breathing while they sleep to detect an apnea event.
When an event is detected, the system activates a vibrating
adhesive patch worn on the neck to restore breathing. The device is designed to improve sleep quality by reducing the number and duration of apnea events that prevent normal breathing and disrupt sleep.
Features:
* Efficient, comfortable, CPAP alternative
* No masks, no hoses, no oral devices
* Breathe easily, comfortably, naturally
* For adults with Obstructive Sleep Apnea
The Kai 100 System
The KAI Apnea system is a home-based, medical system used to treat adults diagnosed with OSA. The system monitors the patients breathing while they sleep to detect an apnea event. When an event is detected, the system activates a vibrating adhesive patch worn on the neck to restore breathing. The device is designed to improve sleep quality by reducing the number and duration of apnea events that prevent normal breathing and disrupt sleep
Kia Apnea Components
The components operate together to monitor and detect sleep apnea events. Upon detection of an event, the sensor processing unit (pictured below) sends a signal to theadhesive neck patch (pictured top right), triggering a vibratory stimulus at increasing frequency and pulse durations to create a reflex reaction that opens the airway, and restores normal respiration without disrupting the patient from sleep. The KAI Apnea system provides comfortable, non-invasive sleep apnea treatment without surgery, medication, or continuous application of air pressure. It monitors breathing and apnea activity continuously and applies treatment only during an actual apnea event.
Kia Apnea Clinical Study
In a recent clinical study, Kai Apnea device users had an average of
46% Apnea-Hypopnea Index (AHI) reduction compared to device
off nights, with the number of arousals as measured by the Arousal
Index (AI) also improving
