1 in 15 has moderate to severe sleep apnea (9% of middle aged women, 25% of middle aged men)
Even severe sleep apnea remains undiagnosed (75-80%)

The Equipment

We employ the latest Level 2 sleep technology providing hospital grade information at a lower cost. Home Sleep Studies may qualify for Medicare funding.
The equipment records a patient’s sleep patterns through a device about the same size as a mobile phone fitted over their t-shirt. The process is non-intrusive and respects the patient’s privacy.

Sleep Report

Using the latest scientific equipment, we record sleep patterns, analyse the data and arrange for a qualified sleep physician to include their clinical recommendations. Recordings are taken in a patient’s home.
A comprehensive report covers all the important factors, including sleep disturbances, breathing interruptions, irregular heart rhythms, leg movements and teeth grinding.

The reports and sleep physician recommendation are available within 2 weeks.

For referrals, please call us on 02 8311 2800 or book with our GP Dr Narelle Savage.
