This study aimed to determine whether functional deficits in the inner ear disturb sleep quality. Methods: We compared sleep parameters in patients with their first episode of acute inner ear deficit (Group A: sudden idiopathic vertigo attack, sudden sensorineural hearing loss), chronic functional inner ear impairment (Group B: chronic peripheral vertigo, permanent hearing loss), and in healthy individuals (Group C). Polygraphy recordings were performed twice, in Group A at the onset of acute otoneurological symptoms and the second time after their withdrawal with an interval of 1 to 13 days, in Group B after 1 to 6 days, and in Group C after 1 to 8 days. Results: In Group A during the symptomatic night, overall and central apnea-hypopnea indices were significantly higher and snoring time was longer. Group A also had higher central apnea-hypopnea index on the first night compared to healthy individuals. In chronic disorders, sleep recordings showed lower autonomic arousal index than in controls or symptomatic nights in Group A. Conclusions: These findings highlight the severity of sleep apnea indicators in Group A. Our results suggest that acute dysfunction of the inner ear substantially impacts central neuronal signaling responsible for regulating normal sleep-related breathing and leads to a deterioration in sleep quality in contrast to individuals with chronic inner ear impairments. It can also be assumed that people with chronic vertigo or hearing loss experience less interrupted sleep than healthy individuals.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/audiolres15040076","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,6,24]],"date-time":"2025-06-24T10:43:15Z","timestamp":1750761795000},"page":"76","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Sleep Assessment in Patients with Inner Ear Functional Disorders: A Prospective Cohort Study Investigating Sleep Quality Through Polygraphy Recordings"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"15","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7553-3384","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Dorota","family":"Kuryga","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Clinic of Pediatric Otorhinolaryngology, Centre of Postgraduate Medical Education, 05-092 Dziekanow Lesny, Poland"},{"name":"Department of Otolaryngology, Bielanski Hospital, 01-809 Warsaw, Poland"},{"name":"Department of Otolaryngology, Voivodeship Hospital in Lomza, 18-404 Lomza, Poland"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Artur","family":"Niedzielski","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Clinic of Pediatric Otorhinolaryngology, Centre of Postgraduate Medical Education, 05-092 Dziekanow Lesny, Poland"},{"name":"Department of Otolaryngology, Bielanski Hospital, 01-809 Warsaw, Poland"},{"name":"Department of Pediatric ENT, The Hospital\u2019s Pediatric in Dziekanow Lesny, 05-092 Dziekanow Lesny, Poland"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,6,24]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"479","DOI":"10.5664\/jcsm.6506","article-title":"Clinical Practice Guideline for Diagnostic Testing for Adult Obstructive Sleep Apnea: An American Academy of Sleep Medicine Clinical Practice Guideline","volume":"13","author":"Kapur","year":"2017","journal-title":"J.
