Pre-study Consultation: Before the sleep study, you’ll meet with our sleep specialists to discuss your symptoms, medical history, and any medications you’re currently taking. This helps our team determine the best course of action for your diagnostic study.
Monitoring During the Study: The study will be conducted while you sleep, either at one of our state-of-the-art sleep centers or at home with a portable monitoring device. Sensors will be placed on your scalp, face, chest, limbs, and other areas to collect data without disrupting your sleep. These sensors will monitor your brain activity, breathing patterns, heart rate, oxygen levels, and muscle movements.
Post-study Analysis: Once the data is collected, our sleep specialists will analyze the information to identify any sleep disorders, such as sleep apnea, restless leg syndrome, narcolepsy, or parasomnia.
