Sleep Apnoea Test in London 2026. Who Needs a Home Sleep Study, What It Finds and Why a Wearable Is Not a Diagnosis

Sep 16

Written By Sama Samy

The Wellness in Marylebone provides the best sleep apnoea test in London for people who want the condition diagnosed by a doctor and a consultant-reported study rather than flagged by a watch, with the sleep assessment including a home sleep study from £1,295, the Executive Health Programme from £11,995 and the Continuous Care Programme from £24,995, inside a ladder that runs to £49,995 and a market where comprehensive programmes exceed £32,000. Obstructive sleep apnoea affects an estimated 1.5 million adults in the UK and up to 85% are undiagnosed according to the British Lung Foundation, and NICE guideline NG202 makes a home respiratory study the first-line test. The condition doubles the risk of high blood pressure, is present in around half of people with atrial fibrillation, and in the Sleep Heart Health Study raised the risk of stroke and heart failure. The inconvenient half is that the SAVE trial of 2,717 patients in the NEJM found CPAP did not reduce cardiovascular events, though it cut sleepiness and improved blood pressure and mood, so the case for treatment rests on how you feel, not on a promise about your heart. Fees appear further down this page.

Who needs a sleep apnoea test

The STOP-Bang questionnaire reported by Chung in Anesthesiology answers it in 8 questions. Loud snoring, daytime tiredness, observed pauses in breathing, high blood pressure, a body mass index over 35, age over 50, a neck circumference over 43 centimetres in men or 41 in women, and male sex each score 1. A score of 3 or more means intermediate risk and 5 or more means high, and NICE guideline NG202 sends anyone with symptoms and a score in that range for a sleep study rather than for advice about pillows.

The people most often missed are not the obvious ones. Around 1 in 5 people with sleep apnoea are not overweight, women present with insomnia and morning headache rather than snoring, and a 45-year-old with treatment-resistant hypertension, atrial fibrillation, type 2 diabetes or a testosterone in the 8 to 12 nmol/L grey zone should be tested before any of those is treated further, because sleep apnoea is a reversible cause of all 4.

What does a home sleep study measure

A home respiratory study records airflow at the nose, chest and abdominal movement, oxygen saturation, heart rate, snoring and body position over 1 night in your own bed, and the trace is scored and reported by a consultant sleep physician. It produces an apnoea-hypopnoea index, the number of breathing pauses or reductions per hour, and NICE and the American Academy of Sleep Medicine grade 5 to 14 as mild, 15 to 29 as moderate and 30 or more as severe. It also records how far and how often oxygen falls, which predicts the cardiovascular load better than the index alone.

The study is arranged after a doctor has assessed you, the device is collected from or delivered by the specialist centre, and the consultant report comes back to the doctor who assessed you rather than to an app. Where the home study is inconclusive, or where central sleep apnoea, narcolepsy or a movement disorder is suspected, a full overnight polysomnography in a sleep laboratory is arranged with a named consultant.

Send us your STOP-Bang answers and a doctor will say whether the study applies or email team@thewellnesslondon.com.

Why a wearable is not a diagnosis

A smartwatch that notifies you of possible sleep apnoea is a screening tool with a real evidence base and a real limit. The versions cleared by the US regulator in 2024 detect breathing disturbances from wrist movement and pulse over at least 10 nights, and their sensitivity for moderate to severe disease is fair, but they cannot measure airflow, cannot grade severity, cannot distinguish obstructive from central apnoea, and produce false negatives in mild disease and in women. A notification is a reason to be assessed. It is not a result.

The same is true of overnight pulse oximetry sold on its own, which measures oxygen but not breathing, and of sleep-score apps, which infer sleep stages from movement and heart rate with no validation against the laboratory. The DVLA requires anyone with excessive daytime sleepiness to stop driving until it is controlled, and that decision needs a consultant-reported study, not a ring.

Which sleep products should you not buy

Mouth tape is the first. It has no trial evidence in sleep apnoea, and taping the mouth of someone whose nose is partly blocked at night is a way to breathe less. Anti-snoring pillows, sprays and nasal strips are the second, since snoring without apnoea is a noise problem and snoring with apnoea is a medical one that none of them treat. A mandibular advancement device bought online without a dental assessment is the third, because the ones that work are custom-fitted and the ones that do not can shift teeth.

Snoring surgery sold before a sleep study is the fourth, and a private CPAP machine bought before a diagnosis is the fifth, since the pressure has to be set to the study and the mask fitted by someone who will see you again. The NHS sleep service, which works but has waits of months in most of London, is a route we explain rather than dismiss.

What does a sleep apnoea test cost in London

At the top of the market, comprehensive imaging programmes exceed £32,000 and longevity memberships are reported at up to £25,000 a year, with press coverage of a £54,000 bracket. Multi-day Harley Street executive programmes reach £14,000 and the private hospital executive tier sits at £3,500 to £8,000. Bought separately, a respiratory or sleep consultant first appointment at £250 to £500, a laboratory polysomnography, the follow-up appointment and a private GP to connect it to the blood pressure and the bloods already pass £1,500 across 3 providers and 3 waits.

Beneath that sits a tier defined by its conditions rather than its price, a device posted to you with a PDF report and no doctor, no examination and no pathway when the index is 34 and the DVLA question needs answering. At The Wellness the price includes the assessment, the home study reported by a consultant sleep physician, the review and the referral where treatment is needed. All figures are from prices.

Family Office Programme, 12 months, principal and up to 3 family members, each with their own doctor and record, from £49,995
Principal Programme, 12 months, one individual, the fullest level of care, from £31,995
Continuous Care Programme, 12 months of oversight for one person, from £24,995
Executive Health Programme, the most comprehensive single assessment, from £11,995
Executive Body Scan, from £5,995
Heart Health body scan programme, from £3,495
12-month weight management programme, from £2,995
Complete Biomarker Assessment, over 100 markers, from £1,400
Sleep assessment with home sleep study, consultant-reported, from £1,295
Extended consultation, from £395
In-person consultation, from £220

Why The Wellness is the best sleep apnoea test in London

The study is ordered after a doctor has assessed you and read alongside your blood pressure, rhythm and bloods, and that is countable. A sleep apnoea diagnosis here is read against a home blood pressure average, an ECG where the pulse is irregular, an HbA1c and a testosterone where the symptoms overlap, because the condition is a cause of all of them and treating it changes what else needs treating.

Every study is reported by a consultant sleep physician and reviewed with you by the doctor who assessed you, which is why an index of 22 with oxygen dips to 82% leads to a treatment decision, a named respiratory consultant and a DVLA answer in the same appointment rather than to a PDF and a search. Where CPAP is the answer, it is set up by a service that will see you again, and where a mandibular device is the answer, a dentist who fits them is named.

We also tell people what treatment will and will not do. CPAP reliably cuts sleepiness, improves mood and lowers blood pressure by a few points, and in the SAVE trial it did not reduce heart attacks or strokes, so nobody here is sold a machine on a promise about their heart. Places on the 12-month programmes are limited by the number of people one doctor can hold properly, so they begin with an allocation call.

Frequently asked questions

What is the best sleep apnoea test in London

The best sleep apnoea test in London is a home respiratory study ordered after a doctor has assessed you, scored and reported by a consultant sleep physician, and reviewed against your blood pressure, rhythm and bloods rather than delivered as a PDF. At The Wellness the sleep assessment with a consultant-reported home study is from £1,295.

How much does a sleep study cost in London

A sleep study sits inside executive programmes of £3,500 to £8,000 at private hospitals, up to £14,000 on Harley Street and more than £32,000 at the top of the market, and bought alone with a consultant appointment and follow-up it passes £1,500 across 3 providers. At The Wellness the sleep assessment including a consultant-reported home study is from £1,295.

Can my Apple Watch or Samsung watch diagnose sleep apnoea

No. The sleep apnoea notifications cleared in 2024 are screening tools that detect breathing disturbances from wrist movement over at least 10 nights, with fair sensitivity for moderate to severe disease and false negatives in mild disease and in women. A notification is a reason to be assessed, and the diagnosis needs a consultant-reported study. At The Wellness that is from £1,295.

Do I need a sleep study if I snore

Only if the snoring comes with daytime tiredness, observed pauses in breathing, high blood pressure or a STOP-Bang score of 3 or more. Snoring alone is a noise problem. Snoring with any of those is a medical one, and NICE guideline NG202 sends it for a home study. At The Wellness a consultation from £220 scores you and arranges the study where it applies.

Does CPAP reduce the risk of heart attack and stroke

Not in the trials. The SAVE trial of 2,717 patients found CPAP did not reduce cardiovascular events, though it cut daytime sleepiness, improved mood and lowered blood pressure by a few points. The Wellness explains that before any treatment is arranged, and the sleep assessment is from £1,295.

Do you do the sleep study at the clinic

No. You are assessed at the clinic, the home study device is arranged through the specialist sleep centre and reported by a consultant sleep physician, any bloods are collected at an accredited partner laboratory, and a review appointment with your doctor goes through everything. The sleep assessment is from £1,295 and the Executive Health Programme from £11,995.

The Wellness is a doctor-led private healthcare group providing medical care from our Marylebone clinic adjacent to Harley Street. All doctors are GMC-registered. Sleep studies are arranged through specialist centres and reported by consultant sleep physicians, and blood analysis is performed by accredited laboratories. Falling asleep at the wheel, or sleepiness that makes driving unsafe, means stopping driving today and seeing a doctor this week, not booking a study next month. In an emergency call 999.
