What is a Sleep Diagnostic Study?
A sleep diagnostic study is a comprehensive medical evaluation that is conducted to diagnose and treat sleep disorders. This type of study is typically conducted by a cardiologist or a sleep specialist to evaluate a patient’s sleep patterns and determine the underlying cause of their sleep problems. During the study, a series of tests are performed to monitor the patient’s sleep patterns, including heart rate, oxygen levels, and breathing patterns. The results of the study are used to determine how to best treat the patient’s sleep disorder and may include lifestyle changes, medication, and/or additional testing.
What to Expect
During the sleep study, you will be asked to lie down in a comfortable and quiet environment. You will be monitored and observed throughout the night to measure your sleep patterns. This includes tracking your breathing, heart rate, and oxygen levels. Your cardiologist may also perform cardiac testing or ask you to wear a Holter monitor. These tests are used to measure your heart rate and rhythm while you sleep.
If a sleep disorder is discovered, your cardiologist may suggest a treatment plan or lifestyle changes to help you get a better night’s sleep.
