Sleep Centre in UK that measures UARS - Hope2SleepGuide2024-03-29T04:46:15Zhttp://hope2sleepguide.co.uk/forum/topics/sleep-centre-in-uk-that-measures-uars?commentId=6381638%3AComment%3A57250&xg_source=activity&feed=yes&xn_auth=noGreat to hear you're having a…tag:hope2sleepguide.co.uk,2018-04-13:6381638:Comment:572542018-04-13T18:51:21.794ZKath Hopehttp://hope2sleepguide.co.uk/profile/KathHope
<p>Great to hear you're having an in-patient sleep study Savannah. You may not need to investigate UARS either, because if a simple study (probably pulse oximetry) has picked up an issue that warrants an in-patient study, then it's likely that sleep apnoea itself is suspected. Good luck and keep us posted.</p>

<p>Dear Sleep2snore, thanks for your reply and apologies for my late response.</p>
<p>In the case that UARS is detected, may I enquire what you mean regarding a more complex machine? Are you referring to BiPAP machines?</p>

<p>Dear Kath, many thanks for your reply and the link to the page; apologies for my late response.</p>
<p>I have recently had a simple sleep study done at home, and am awaiting a more comprehensive inpatient sleep study. I will ask whether <span>Esophageal Manometry (Pes)</span> can be done. I am currently based in the north though potentially a move may be in the works.</p>
<p>I am hoping the longer sleep study will uncover some answers!</p>
