If you snore or have breathing issues while you sleep, it may be a mystery to know what’s happening. It’s no wonder why 80% of people with sleep apnea go undiagnosed. This is where an At-Home Sleep Study can solve the mystery. This simple study consists of wearing a small device when you sleep…at home in your own bed. While you sleep it measures key vitals to help determine if your breathing stops during sleep, also known as sleep apnea. That’s one mystery you’ll want to solve!
What is an at-home sleep study & how does it work?
A sleep study (polysomnography) measures and records your brain waves, the oxygen level in your blood, heart rate and breathing, and eye and leg movements during your sleep. The test monitors your sleep stages and cycles to help identify disruptions in your sleep patterns and why they may be occurring.
With no tubes, wires, or clunky machines, ADVENT’s home sleep study is painless, easy, and lets you stay in the comfort of your own bed. You simply wear a small device, usually it’s just taped to your finger, and while you sleep it evaluates your snoring and measures your oxygen levels. These measurements will help your medical provider to determine if you have sleep apnea, and if so, how severe it is.
Whether you or your partner are struggling with snoring, sleep apnea, or an ill-fitting CPAP mask, you know the toll it's taking on your quality of life. Your relationships, work, and your overall focus on life are suffering and you finally hit your limit. It's time to finally get some answers to what your body is doing when you're trying to catch your z's.
