In order to make the diagnosis many sleep-related disorders, a test called polysomnography (sometimes referred to as PSG) is known as a sleep test. You will need to stay one night in our sleep lab for this test. Our sleep laboratory has 7 beds at the bottom and 4 beds at the top. Our sleep laboratory is a safe center where physical features such as sound, light and temperature are provided, single rooms are special, linens and other room accessories are cleaned every day and technicians are available every night. During the test, electrodes and cables will be placed in your body to record some of your bodily reactions during sleep, and a thin plastic tube will be attached to the outside of your nose to record changes in airflow. After the placement of the recording devices, all your physical functions in sleep will be recorded on the computer. Our sleep laboratory is accredited to demonstrate the adequacy and suitability of the above-mentioned procedures.
