Sleep Study
A sleep study, also known as a polysomnography, is a diagnostic test performed overnight in a specialized laboratory or at home to evaluate sleep disorders. It monitors various bodily functions such as brain activity, eye movements, heart rate, breathing patterns, oxygen levels, and muscle activity while you sleep. The goal is to identify issues like sleep apnea, restless leg syndrome, or other sleep-related problems. The data collected helps healthcare providers understand your sleep patterns and diagnose conditions affecting sleep quality, enabling them to recommend appropriate treatment for better rest and overall health.
