Monitor Your Sleep in the Comfort of Your Own Home
A HOME SLEEP TEST CAN DIAGNOSE YOUR SLEEP PROBLEM
The home sleep test is a sleep study tool that is used to diagnose obstructive sleep apnea, a sleep disorder that occurs when the back of your throat relaxes during sleep and blocks your airway.
If your partner complains that you snore loudly, or you wake up in the morning feeling tired, sleep apnea may be the culprit. Wyoming Sleep Disorders Center offers a convenient home sleep test that allows us to monitor your sleep and diagnose a possible sleep disorder.
HOW DOES THE HOME SLEEP TEST WORK?
You’ll take a portable machine home with you to use while you sleep. Typically, sensors are worn around the chest and finger, and under your nose. These sensors allow us to measure your:
- Nasal and oral airflow
- Breathing effort
- Blood-oxygen levels
- Heart rate
You’ll return it the following day for review by our specialists and we will get your answers back to you in no time. Sleep apnea is a common sleep disorder that can be easily treated with help from a sleep specialist. Call 307-638-4733 to schedule an appointment at Wyoming Sleep Disorders Center.
