Dr. Hans-Günter Weeß:
“The SOMNOmedics HomeSleepTest is a good way to obtain objective data on sleep quality outside the sleep laboratory and information on the cause of insomnia at the first two stages of treatment. Thus, treatment and cost-intensive methods in the sleep laboratory can be preserved and patients can be treated more quickly.”

Dr. Holger Hein:
“In addition to a detailed anamnesis and the collection of subjective sleep data by questionnaires and a sleep protocol lasting several weeks, a measurement of sleep stages is also indispensable for the accurate diagnosis of insomnia. Best in the usual conditions, so at home. With the HomeSleepTest from SOMNOmedics, there is a good procedure that is easy to use by the patient himself and which provides valid data fast and reliable.”

The HomeSleepTest is applied using a unique, disposable 3-button adhesive electrode on the forehead and a separate adhesive electrode on the mastoid. The innovative shape of the forehead electrode allows a particularly simple and safe application and at the same time a reliable recording of the EOG and EEG channels. This standard version is particularly easy to use for the patient.

The HomeSleepTest REM+ is applied using four separate disposable adhesive electrodes. The AASM-compliant position of the EOG electrodes improves the recording of horizontal and vertical eye movements and facilitates the evaluation of REM sleep. The flexible positioning of the individual adhesive electrodes makes the HomeSleepTest REM+ particularly suitable for paediatric use (when the forehead is too narrow for the 3-button electrode) and for research purposes (when the position of the EOG electrodes plays a special role).
