Sleep Lab in Chennai

What is a Sleep Lab?

A sleep lab is a clinical facility equipped with polysomnography (PSG) systems that monitor brain activity, breathing, oxygen saturation, heart rhythm, eye movement and limb movement throughout the night to diagnose obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), central sleep apnea, narcolepsy, periodic limb movement disorder and other sleep disorders.

Srivari Healthcare runs a sleep lab in Chennai equipped with Löwenstein Sonata (Level 1 attended PSG), Scala (Level 3 polygraphy) and SAMOA (home sleep apnea testing) — German-engineered, hospital-grade equipment trusted by sleep specialists worldwide.

For the detailed cost breakdown of Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 sleep tests in Chennai, see our dedicated sleep study test pricing page.

Sleep Lab in Chennai — How It Works

1. Step 1 — Initial consultation. Speak with our team about your symptoms (snoring, gasping, daytime sleepiness, fatigue, observed apneas). We help match you with the right diagnostic — in-lab PSG or home test.
2. Step 2 — Sleep study scheduling. We coordinate with partner sleep labs across Chennai (Anna Nagar, T. Nagar, Adyar, OMR, Velachery) or deliver a home sleep apnea testing device to your address.
3. Step 3 — Overnight recording. 6–8 hours of multi-channel sleep data is captured. For home tests, you simply wear the sensors and sleep normally.
4. Step 4 — Specialist report. A board-certified sleep physician scores your data and writes a detailed report (3–5 business days), including AHI (apnea-hypopnea index), oxygen desaturation, and recommended therapy.
5. Step 5 — Therapy follow-through. If CPAP or BiPAP therapy is prescribed, we supply the device, fit a mask, set the prescribed pressure and provide 24/7 clinical support — all from one trusted source.
