Sleep studies
Our sleep study service is conducted through the Respiratory Department.
Introduced as a limited service in 2007, the department can now provide full diagnostic testing to evaluate respiratory sleep disorders such as obstructive sleep apnoea and has a treatment initiation/follow up service in place to assist in the treatment of these disorders. All studies are conducted within the hospital (on an inpatient basis) and are non-invasive.
Referrals are accepted from Respiratory / Sleep Consultants only, these referrals are prioritised and placed on a waiting list.
