Sleep Study

a) Proper Diagnosis

The best way to differentiate snoring from sleep apnea, or to diagnose the severity of sleep apnea is with an overnight sleep study that evaluates what your body is doing at night. A typical study includes the following:

• Electroencephalogram
• Electrooculogram
• Electromyogram
• Electrocardiogram
• Right and left leg EMG
• Nasal/oral airflow
• Thoracic respiratory effort
• Abdominal respiratory effort
• Snoring
• SaO2
• Heart rate
• Video monitoring

The term RDI stands for Respiratory Disturbance Index and is one very important measure of the severity of the sleep disorder. The RDI is a number that represents how many times per hour breathing stops or becomes very shallow. This index is important because it is often associated with disruption of sleep and dangerous drops in blood oxygen levels. Most physicians agree that an RDI of 5 or below is normal while an RDI over 40 may indicate severe disease.

"My husband thanks you and my daughter really thanks you! On a recent trip, my daughter and I had to spend five nights together in the same bed and she was able to sleep through the night undisturbed. I want to thank you for giving me back my freedom. I no longer have to hook myself up to a CPAP machine! No more hoses! No more machines! I wake up refreshed and renewed. Thanks."
