What is a Sleep Study and Why is it Done?
Sleep problems like snoring, sleep apnea, and insomnia are becoming increasingly common and often go unnoticed. Left untreated, they can lead to fatigue, poor concentration, high blood pressure, and even heart problems. A sleep study (polysomnography) is the gold standard test that helps doctors diagnose and treat these sleep disorders.
At Chest & Sleep Center, Nashik, under the care of Dr. Abhinandan Mutha, patients receive accurate sleep disorder diagnosis and personalized treatment plans.
What is a Sleep Study?
✅ A sleep study, also known as polysomnography, is a painless diagnostic test that monitors:
- Brain activity (EEG)
- Oxygen levels
- Heart rate & rhythm
- Breathing patterns
- Snoring and body movements
This test is usually conducted overnight in a sleep lab or at home with specialized equipment. The results help identify conditions like obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), insomnia, narcolepsy, restless leg syndrome, and sleep-related breathing disorders.
Who Needs a Sleep Study?
✅ Your doctor may recommend a sleep study if you have:
- Loud snoring
- Interrupted breathing during sleep (sleep apnea symptoms)
- Excessive daytime sleepiness or fatigue
- Difficulty falling or staying asleep (insomnia)
- Sudden waking up gasping for air
- Poor memory, concentration, or morning headaches
Early detection through a sleep study ensures timely treatment and prevents long-term complications.
