Abstract

Key Points The apnoea‐hypopnoea index (AHI) varies from night to night. Multi‐night testing improves diagnostic accuracy. Emerging multi‐night diagnostic devices offer practical advantages but require further validation. A single night AHI should be interpreted as an estimate rather than a definitive value, alongside clinical judgement.
