How a sleep study can help
Often, our sleep center conducts sleep studies to help patients determine the exact cause of their restlessness. This allows them to recommend effective treatments for better rest.
What is a sleep study?
A sleep study is a simple test to determine the causes of grogginess, insomnia, and other sleep challenges. During a sleep study, specialists monitor your body’s signals during the day or as you sleep. These can reveal the specific sleep disorder that you have and inform treatment plans.
Types of sleep studies
Our sleep clinic in Lansdowne, VA offers four types of sleep studies. Your sleep specialist can recommend the study that’s best for you.
The four types of studies are:
- Polysomnogram (PSG) – During a PSG, our sleep center will measure your body movement, heart rate, brain activity, eye movements, blood pressure, and other vital signs. We can then interpret this data to determine whether you suffer from one of many sleep disorders, including:
- Circadian rhythm disorders
- Sleep-related movement disorders
- Hypersomnia
- Obstructive sleep apnea
- Insomnia
- And more
- Multiple Sleep Latency Test (MSLT) – The MSLT is used to diagnose narcolepsy or track the progress of an existing sleep treatment. For a MSLT, a technician from our Lansdowne, VA sleep clinic will test your brain and eye activity during five 20-minute nap periods during the day. Depending on your sleepiness during these tests, your sleep treatment may be altered.
- Maintenance of Wakefulness Test (MWT) – The MWT tests daytime sleepiness. It’s primarily employed to ensure safety, especially for those who work in transportation or operate heavy machinery.
- Home Sleep Test – A home sleep test is designed to detect moderate to severe obstructive sleep apnea. You’ll pick up a small device from our Lansdowne, VA sleep clinic, receive instructions on its use, and return it after testing your sleep patterns.
Sleep study results and treatment
Once you’ve completed a sleep study, a specialist at our sleep center will evaluate your results. You’ll hear from your specialist about a week after your study. Occasionally, your specialist may prescribe a secondary study for additional data before recommending treatment. Every individual is unique. As a result, every treatment plan is different. Your sleep specialist will look at your sleep study results and listen to your symptoms to determine the right methods for you.
Treatment options may include:
- Medication
- Lifestyle changes
- Oral sleeping device
- CPAP machine
- Treatment of underlying medical conditions
- And more
