Completing
an in-home study is convenient, accurate, fast, and cost-effective.
Once your doctor makes a referral, Sleep Data will contact
you to schedule the sleep study. We will arrange to have the
sleep recorder delivered to and picked up from your home or
office. This will allow you to be studied under your normal
sleeping conditions in the privacy of your own home, rather
than in an unfamiliar setting. You will be shown how to use
the recorder for your testing and a technician will be on-call
to assist you if necessary. A bedside device will record respiratory
parameters throughout the night. These include breathing efforts,
heart rate, oxygen levels, snoring, and body position. The
following day the equipment will be returned to Sleep Data
where it will be analyzed by a trained sleep technician and
a physician who specializes in sleep disorders. The results
will be given to your doctor so proper treatment can be prescribed.
Most medical insurers cover home sleep studies. This testing
can be performed anywhere in the United States.
