A polysomnograph is a specialized medical device that records various physiological signals from patients during sleep to evaluate sleep disorders such as insomnia, snoring, or sleep apnea. It typically captures data including brain activity, heart function, breathing patterns, and oxygen levels to help diagnose sleep-related conditions.
These devices are typically powered by mains electricity and are computerized systems that use multiple sensors placed on specific areas of the body. They are regulated medical devices that may vary in configuration depending on the specific sleep study being conducted, with some parameters being added or omitted as needed.
