Objective To evaluate the economic and technical viability of the sleep study (type III) in children with adenotonsilar hypertrophy.

Methods 141 children were submitted to sleep study (type III), aged between three and 11, all with symptoms of OSA. The frequency of failed examinations and a comparison of cost analysis between complete polysomnography were described.

Results 41 exams lost at least one sensor. The sensor with the highest number of losses was the oximetry, observed in 14.28%. The 100 valid sleep studies allowed the diagnosis of severe OSA in 36 children. Sleep study accounts for approximately 63% of the value of the PSG type I, thus, it showed to be cost effective even with the repetition of the failed one.

Conclusion Sleep study (type III) may have high failure rates and it was a reliable exam for the identification of severe OSA. The cost analysis showed economic feasibility, even with a high failure rate and necessity of repetition.
