Polysomnographic studies are the main method for sleep
disturbances diagnostics (insomnia, hypersomnia, parasomnia,
narcolepsy), sleep respiratory distress (sleep apnoea syndrome,
alveolar hypoventilation, snore) and concomitant cardiovascular
diseases (heart rate disturbance, coronary disease), and also
neurological and psychosomatic disturbances (epilepsy, restless
legs syndrome, bruxism, etc.)
Studies can be carried out both in autonomous (at the
patient's whereabouts, with record to the flash-card, like Holter
type) and in telemetric (Bluetooth) mode.
