Sleep study, also known as polysomnography, is a medical procedure used to diagnose sleep disorders and evaluate the quality of sleep. It involves monitoring and recording various physiological functions during sleep, such as brain activity, eye movements, heart rate, breathing patterns, body movement and oxygen levels.
Generally, there are three levels of sleep study tests: Level 3 and Level 2 and Level 1. Level 1 is only performed in hospitals/sleep centres.
Level 3 | Advanced Test (Level 2) | |

Price | ₹1899 | ₹5399 |
For | Those who are at risk of Sleep Apnea | Those who are suspected to have moderate to severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), Central Sleep Apnea (CSA), PLMS, REM sleep related disorder, Insomnia and other sleep related disorders. |

In a Level 3 sleep study, the patient wears portable monitoring equipment while at home. These devices typically record fewer parameters compared to a Level 2 sleep study, but they can still provide valuable information for diagnosing certain sleep disorders.
A Level 2 sleep study is a comprehensive evaluation conducted overnight. It involves the use of multiple sensors and monitoring equipment to record various physiological functions during sleep. The most commonly used sensors in sleep study are Electrocardiogram (EKG), Electro-encephalogram (EEG), Electrooculography (EOG), Oximeter and many other sensors are also used to monitor volume of snore, respiratory effort, body position, respiratory flow etc. A trained technician monitors the patient throughout the night and gathers data for analysis by a sleep specialist.
Depending on the complexity of the study, the sleep study technique can be carried out in a hospital, clinic, or even at home. The rapid eye movement (REM) phase and the non-rapid eye movement (NREM) phase of sleep are the two separate phases that are observed during the entire operation. Multiple aspects of the body's operations are noticed when a person first falls asleep, during NREM sleep.
Yes, a sleep test can be done at home using a portable device that tracks nasal airflow, oxygen levels, snoring, and sleep stages, making it a convenient way to screen for sleep apnea and other sleep disorders.
The cost of a sleep study varies depending on sleep study level. Level 3 home sleep tests are generally affordable, ranging from ₹1,699 to ₹2,599, while Level 2 sleep study costs between ₹5999 - ₹7999 in India.
No, sleep tests are completely painless and non-invasive equipment is used to monitor your sleep patterns without causing any discomfort.
Home sleep tests are reliable for diagnosing conditions like sleep apnea, although parameters may vary depending on the levels of sleep study. Level 2 is more compprehensive and more parameters are involved compared to Level 3.
To get the best results, sleep for at least 5 - 6 hours during a home sleep test. This duration allows for a comprehensive analysis of your sleep patterns.
A sleep study can detect conditions such as sleep apnea, restless legs syndrome, insomnia and other sleep related disorders by monitoring breathing, oxygen levels, EEG, ECG, snoring and overall sleep quality.
In a sleep study, every stage plays a crucial role—from high-quality signal acquisition to cleaning artifacts and finally manually scoring each 30-second epoch.
If any step is compromised, the accuracy of your diagnosis suffers.
While a local or generic test may appear cheaper or quicker, the medical value is often far below that of a branded SomniScan study.
Generic Test: Data is typically auto-scored by software, which can overlook subtle breathing events and misclassify sleep stages.
SomniScan: Manually scored by certified sleep experts (and verified by RPSGTs), ensuring 99.9% accuracy and reliable detection of even the smallest abnormalities.
Medical Interpretation
Generic Test: Generates a basic report with little or no expert review.
SomniScan: Clinically interpreted by a qualified Sleep Expert, providing a signed, physician-ready report for treatment planning.
Generic Test: Sampling rates and AASM 3.0 guidelines are not always maintained, risking incomplete or outdated data.
SomniScan: Fully compliant with the latest AASM 3.0 standards, capturing every parameter at the correct frequency.
Generic Test: Equipment may not be disinfected between patients.
SomniScan: Hospital-grade disinfection after every study protects your health and ensures a safe testing environment.
An inaccurate sleep study can lead to wrong diagnosis, incorrect CPAP/BiPAP settings, and months of ineffective treatment.
SomniScan provides the gold standard in sleep diagnostics so you and your doctor can make confident, life-changing decisions.
Don’t settle for a “just good enough” test.
