Home Sleep Studies

A home sleep study, or home polysomnography, is a diagnostic test used to evaluate sleep disorders, particularly sleep apnea, in the comfort of a patient’s own home. Unlike traditional in-lab sleep studies, home sleep studies allow patients to sleep in their familiar environment while monitoring important data, such as breathing patterns, oxygen levels, and heart rate. At Revere Health, we offer home sleep studies to provide a convenient and comfortable option for diagnosing sleep disorders.

How Home Sleep Studies Work
Portable Monitoring Device: Patients are provided with a small, portable device to wear during sleep. This device typically includes sensors that monitor airflow, oxygen levels, breathing effort, and heart rate.
Comfort at Home: Patients set up the equipment themselves before going to bed, allowing them to sleep in their usual surroundings without the need for an overnight stay in a sleep lab.
Data Collection: The device records sleep data throughout the night, which is then analyzed by a specialist to determine if a sleep disorder, such as obstructive sleep apnea, is present.

Conditions Diagnosed with Home Sleep Studies
Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA): The most common condition diagnosed with home sleep studies, OSA occurs when breathing repeatedly stops and starts during sleep.
Snoring and Sleep Disturbances: Helps evaluate other sleep-related breathing issues.
Excessive Daytime Sleepiness: Home studies can help determine if sleep disorders are contributing to daytime fatigue.

Benefits of Home Sleep Studies
Convenience: Allows patients to perform the test in their own home without the need for a hospital or sleep lab visit.
Comfort: Patients can sleep in their own bed, making it easier to get a natural night’s sleep.
Cost-Effective: Home sleep studies are often less expensive than in-lab studies while still providing valuable diagnostic information.
