Abstract
Executive summary: This document is a consensus statement of a subcommittee of experienced sleep physicians and scientists, tasked to review the literature and formulate recommendations on the indications, performance, and reporting of sleep studies, to update clinical practice from the 2017 Australasian Sleep Association (ASA) guidelines for sleep studies in adults (Douglas JA, Chai-Coetzer CL, McEvoy D, et al. Guidelines for sleep studies in adults - a position statement of the Australasian Sleep Association. Sleep Med. 2017;36(Suppl 1):S2-S22. doi:10.1016/j.sleep.2017.03.019). This document moves the focus beyond important discussions outlined in the 2017 guidelines, particularly surrounding the sensitivity and specificity of validated questionnaires and home sleep studies. The 2024 guide outlines the performance of the broad range of sleep testing available for the investigations of sleep disorders in adults including indications, strengths, limitations, and reporting standards.
