Sleep disordered breathing (SDB) includes various conditions caused by problems with respiration during sleep, and the number of Albertans with SDB is increasing. Level I sleep studies, or polysomnography, involve overnight testing in a sleep laboratory with a trained health care professional in attendance. Level I polysomnography is an imperfect gold standard and an expensive test to perform. Level III sleep studies, using portable devices intended for patients to use at home may provide an alternative diagnostic tool for some patients. To assess the safety and effectiveness of SDB diagnosis, and to delineate which sub-populations of patients might benefit from level III versus level I, two reviews were prepared: one of the published evidence on level III studies and another on level I studies. An additional review was prepared for the economic evaluation of sleep studies.
