SLEEP STUDY RESULTS
Sleep Study in the Lab or in the Home
After a physician determines you may have sleep apnea, a sleep study will be prescribed.
We typically encourage an at home sleep study as the first line of action because they're less inconvenient and are more cost effective. However, there are some considerations that may determine whether or not it's feasible or desirable.
- Heart conditions, such as heart disease, will require the study to be done in a full-service sleep center
- Insurance carriers may also have input into where your study is done.
- Having other sleep disorders may play a role in whether or not a home sleep study is recommended
