Sleep Testing Lab/Polysomnography
A sleep testing lab, also known as polysomnography, is a specialized diagnostic test that records sleep patterns to detect sleep disorders such as sleep apnoea, insomnia, restless legs syndrome, or narcolepsy. During the test, sensors are attached to the patient’s body to monitor brain waves, oxygen levels, heart rate, breathing, and body movements while they sleep. This painless and safe procedure gives doctors a complete picture of how well a person is sleeping and helps identify underlying problems that disturb healthy rest.
Advantages
Polysomnography provides precise and reliable data that cannot be obtained from regular checkups or physical examinations. By monitoring multiple body functions throughout the night, it gives doctors clear insights into the exact type and severity of the sleep disorder. This ensures that the treatment plan is tailored to the patient’s unique condition. The test also helps avoid misdiagnosis, prevents unnecessary medications, and allows early detection of serious issues, making it a valuable tool for long-term health improvement.
How It Helps
A sleep testing lab empowers patients to understand the root cause of their poor sleep and tiredness. Once the diagnosis is made, doctors can recommend the most effective therapies, such as CPAP, medications, or lifestyle changes, with greater confidence. Patients benefit from accurate treatment, improved sleep quality, and restored energy during the day. By addressing the real cause of sleep disruptions, polysomnography enhances overall health, productivity, and peace of mind for both patients and their families.
