Polysomnography (PSG) is a comprehensive diagnostic test that tracks multiple physiological activities during sleep, such as:
- Brain waves
- Eye movements
- Muscle activity
- Heart rate
- Breathing patterns and oxygen levels
PSG is the gold standard for diagnosing sleep disorders, including obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) , narcolepsy , and restless legs syndrome (RLS). It helps healthcare providers develop accurate treatment plans for long-term relief.
- In-Laboratory Sleep Study: Conducted in a controlled environment under the supervision of sleep technicians, providing in-depth data on sleep patterns.
- Home Sleep Testing: Involves the use of portable devices that monitor your sleep from the comfort of your home.
The insights from PSG enable doctors to identify sleep disorders like OSA and recommend suitable treatments, such as continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy, which keeps airways open during sleep.
Snoring can indicate underlying sleep issues, particularly OSA , a condition where the airway becomes blocked during sleep, causing loud snoring and breath interruptions. Untreated OSA can lead to serious health risks such as:
- High blood pressure
- Heart disease
- Stroke
- Daytime fatigue and sleepiness
A sleep study can help confirm OSA and guide effective treatment plans, which may include CPAP therapy, oral appliances, or other interventions.
