What can a sleep study diagnose?
A sleep study is a comprehensive medical test that involves monitoring various physiological parameters while you sleep. The test is typically recommended by a doctor when there is a suspicion of a sleep condition that requires investigation, such as sleep apnea, narcolepsy, or periodic limb movement. During the study, sensors will be attached to track your brain waves, eye movements, heart rate, blood oxygen levels, breathing patterns, and muscle activity. The information gathered from these sensors will offer insights into both the quality and quantity of your sleep, while also identifying any irregularities or disturbances. Helyx Health offers an at home sleep study that is convenient for patients.
A sleep study involves one of our expert providers setting up multiple sensors that will monitor physiological parameters while you sleep in the comfort of your own home.
A sleep study can diagnose a variety of sleep conditions. Some of the most common conditions that a sleep study can diagnose include:
• Sleep Apnea – a condition where breathing is repeatedly disrupted during sleep because of a blockage in the airway
• Narcolepsy – a neurological condition that leads to excessive daytime sleepiness and sudden sleep attacks
• Periodic Limb Movement – in this condition, a person’s legs or arms twitch or jerk repeatedly during sleep, causing arousal and disrupting sleep
• Insomnia – a condition in which a person has difficulty falling asleep or staying asleep
• REM Sleep Behavior – a condition in which a person physically acts out their dreams during the REM stage of sleep
