Brisbane Sleep Experts Diagnose Apnea With A
Convenient Overnight Test From Home
Does your partner snore? Do they claim
that you snore? It's possible that sleep
apnea may be the cause! Normally
getting a diagnosis for sleep apnea can
be a real pain, but new portable
technology is making it more convenient
than ever!
Previously if you required a
sleep study you had no
choice but to sleep overnight
in a sleep lab.
The recently launched home
sleep study option for patients
in Brisbane offers a more
convenient approach to getting
a sleep apnea diagnosis.
Many physicians suggest that
being tested at home may be a
more effective solution, as most
patients are more at ease in their
own homes, and find it easier to
get a proper night's sleep.
Sleep apnea is a disorder that
can affect your breathing
during sleep, causing your
breathing to stop several
times.
There are different types of
sleep apnea, all of which can
cause you to briefly awake. The
waking is often accompanied by
jerks, twitches, and noises.
The technicians at Sleep Study
Brisbane use a portable
polysomnograph, the same
device used by sleep labs and
doctors to diagnose cardio-
respiratory sleep disorders.
If you have been referred for
a sleep study by your GP you
will have the majority of the
cost covered by Medicare.
The device can be set up by a
qualified technician at your own
home. After sleeping overnight as
you normally would, just pack the
device up and return it to the
technicians at their office.
The device will contain a
record of your sleep positions,
heart rate and rhythm, airflow,
and more. This is enough data
to provide a diagnosis!
