State-of-the-Art Sleep Testing at NBST: Improved Patient Comfort, Faster Results

At North Brisbane Sleep & Thoracic (NBST), we are committed to delivering the highest standard of care in sleep medicine. To support this, we’ve recently upgraded our in-lab sleep testing equipment to the latest NOX technology, bringing our sleep laboratories in line with the advanced systems already used in our home-based studies.

Equipment Upgrade for Patient Comfort and Convenience

Sleep studies are a vital tool in diagnosing conditions such as sleep apnoea, insomnia, and other disorders. While accuracy and reliability remain the cornerstone of our service, we also recognise the importance of patient comfort and ease of testing. Our latest equipment upgrades have already been met with positive feedback from both patients and referring doctors.

Our new equipment provides:

  • Wireless monitoring: Patients are no longer tethered to large or bulky machines. With Bluetooth connectivity, patients can move freely during the study, making the experience more natural and comfortable.
  • Smaller, lighter sensors: The new devices are about the size of a matchbox, reducing bulk and discomfort during sleep.
  • Greater patient compliance – comfortable testing encourages patients to complete their studies without hesitation.
  • Consistency across settings: Whether at home or in our lab, patients now benefit from the same high-end technology, ensuring continuity of care.
  • Faster reporting: Our upgraded system integrates seamlessly with our diagnostic workflow, enabling our sleep specialists to deliver timely reports back to referring doctors.
  • Confidence in accuracy – NOX equipment is recognised globally for its precision and reliability in sleep diagnostics.
