Polysomnography is a multimodal test used in the study of sleep and as a diagnostic tool in sleep medicine. It is the most comprehensive form of sleep recording study and at the same time one of the most comprehensive medical examinations available for collecting clinical information. Polysomnography records, with the use of advanced devices, for a long time during sleep, the activity of many systems such as:
-Brain activity via electroencephalographic recording (EEG)
-Respiration/Breathing
-Capnography (Capnograph RespSense II@)
-Muscle activity via electromyography
-Heart function
-Motion and body positions via body sensors
-Sound
