Home sleep apnoea testing

A fast, convenient way to get a sleep apnea assessment before surgery.

Prepare safely for surgery with an at-home sleep apnoea test, available to Practice Plus Group patients at an exclusive discounted rate.

If during pre-assessment, it is identified that there is a potential risk of obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA), a home sleep study can help confirm whether the condition is present. Early diagnosis supports safer surgery, faster decision-making, and avoids delays caused by long NHS waiting lists.

Why sleep apnoea matters before surgery 

Sleep apnoea is a condition where the airway repeatedly closes during sleep, interrupting breathing and lowering oxygen levels. Many people don’t realise they have it. 

Understanding whether you have sleep apnoea is important before surgery because it can affect: 

• Your airway during anaesthesia 
• Oxygen levels during and after the operation 
• Your recovery and ability to safely return home 

For these reasons, screening for sleep apnoea is now a routine part of pre-operative assessment.
