Kolkata Sleep Clinics Offer Overnight Monitoring for Disorder Diagnosis

Kolkata hospitals recorded a 22 percent rise in requests for polysomnography tests between January and June 2026, according to internal records from two major facilities.

Urban routines that stretch late into the night, combined with traffic noise along major corridors such as EM Bypass and Strand Road, have pushed more people to examine their sleep patterns. City doctors note that untreated issues such as fragmented rest contribute to daytime fatigue and higher blood-pressure readings among working adults in areas like Salt Lake and Gariahat.

Facilities offering overnight studies

Apollo Multispeciality Hospitals on Canal Circular Road maintains a dedicated sleep lab equipped for full-night recordings that track breathing, heart rate and limb movements. Patients arrive by 8 pm and receive results within 48 hours from the on-site pulmonology team. AMRI Hospital in Mukundapur runs a similar program on the fifth floor, where technicians use portable units for home-based studies when hospital beds are full; the service began expanded hours in April 2026 to meet demand from south Kolkata residents.

Both sites require a referral from a general physician and accept walk-in consultations on weekday mornings. Staff at Apollo report that roughly one-third of recent bookings come from IT employees living near Sector V who report difficulty falling asleep before 2 am.

Costs and reported outcomes

A standard overnight study at these clinics ranges from 5,500 to 9,000 rupees, with additional charges for CPAP titration if needed. A March 2026 internal audit at AMRI showed that 68 percent of participants who followed the clinic’s follow-up plan reported measurable improvement in sleep efficiency after eight weeks. Local wellness groups in Park Circus have begun circulating printed guides that list appointment contacts and basic preparation steps such as avoiding caffeine after 4 pm.

Anyone experiencing persistent tiredness should first speak with a neighbourhood doctor before booking a study, then return for review once results arrive. Clinics advise patients to keep a two-week sleep diary noting bedtime, wake time and any disturbances to help technicians interpret the data accurately.
