We run one clinic a week and see children with suspected sleep disordered breathing such as obstructive sleep apnoea or central sleep apnoea.
In this clinic your child will be seen by a paediatric respiratory consultant or a member of the team. During the appointment you may be offered further investigations such as a home based oximetry study or an inpatient sleep study, where your child stays one night in hospital and various sleep observations are recorded via a sleep study machine while they are asleep. We do a number of different types of sleep studies in children, both in hospital and at home. Please see our information videos below about coming to hospital for a sleep study or how to use the equipment you have been given for a study at home.
