Once the test is over, the monitors are detached from the patient. No special measures need to be taken after polysomnography.
Without insurance, lab-based polysomnography cost approximately $1,500 in 1997, while overnight home monitoring cost between $500 and $1,000.
A normal result in polysomnography shows normal results for all parameters (EEG, ECG, blood pressure, eye movement, air flow, pulse oximetry, etc.) monitored throughout all stages of sleep.
Polysomnography is extremely safe and no special precautions need to be taken.
Polysomnography-- A group of tests administered to analyze heart, blood, and breathing patterns during sleep.
Polysomnography-- A technique for diagnosing sleep disorders with the use of a machine that records the pulse, breathing rate and other variables while the patient sleeps.

If you are speaking of an Electro Oculogram, I cannot think of a reason to do a specific isolated test. An EOG is a measurement of electrical actigraphy in the eye muscles. Generally, it is one element of a larger series involved in either an EEG or a Polysomnography measuring sleep.
The study of sleep is called polysomnography.
The patient's airflow through the nose and mouth, blood pressure, heart activity, blood oxygen level, brain wave pattern, eye movement, and the movement of respiratory muscle and limbs.
