Abstract

Background: Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) is a significant public health problem with large health and economic burden. Despite the existence of effective treatment, undiagnosed OSA remains a challenge. The gold standard diagnostic tool is polysomnography (PSG), yet this test is expensive, labour intensive, and time-consuming. Home-based, limited channel sleep study testing (Level 3 and 4) can advance and widen access to diagnostic services. This systematic review aims to summarise available evidence regarding the cost-effectiveness of limited channel tests compared to laboratory and home PSG in diagnosing OSA.
