Sleep Study in Singapore (Polysomnography & Home Sleep Study)
Do you often feel tired during the day, despite getting a full night’s sleep? Do you snore loudly, or wake up gasping for air? These could be signs of a sleep disorder such as obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).
In Singapore, sleep studies can be done either in a sleep laboratory or at home. The in-lab option, known as attended polysomnography, offers a comprehensive assessment with detailed monitoring of brain activity, breathing patterns, oxygen levels, and more. For many individuals with suspected OSA, a home sleep study provides a simpler, more convenient way to detect simple cases of obstructive sleep apnea. Your doctor can help decide which type of study is appropriate for your symptoms and health profile.
What Is a Sleep Study?
Sleep studies are diagnostic tools used to monitor your breathing, heart rate, oxygen levels, and sleep patterns through the night. They are especially useful for diagnosing conditions such as obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), a common but underdiagnosed condition that can significantly impact your health and quality of life.
Untreated sleep disorders have been associated with problems such as excessive daytime sleepiness, poor concentration, increased risk of high blood pressure, heart conditions, and reduced overall wellbeing.
Who Should Get a Sleep Study?
You may benefit from a sleep study if you experience:
- Loud snoring
- Waking up choking or gasping
- Pauses in breathing during sleep (often observed by a partner)
- Morning headaches
- Daytime sleepiness
- Difficulty concentrating
- Mood changes
- “Brain fog” and poor productivity
- Frequent urination at night
People with certain health conditions such as obesity, high blood pressure, or type 2 diabetes may also be at higher risk of sleep apnea.
Types of Sleep Studies
There are two main types of sleep studies:
This is usually done in a hospital or sleep centre where sensors are attached to your body to monitor your breathing, oxygen levels, brain waves, and heart activity overnight. It may be recommended for complex sleep disorders or if multiple parameters need to be monitored closely.
For many individuals with suspected sleep apnea, a home sleep study is a comfortable and effective way to evaluate sleep in your usual environment. It typically involves a wearable device that monitors breathing and oxygen levels while you sleep at home.
