Home Sleep Study

A home sleep study, or home sleep apnea test (HSAT), is a diagnostic tool designed to assess sleep-related breathing disorders in the comfort of one’s home. This portable device monitors key parameters like airflow, oxygen saturation, and respiratory effort during sleep. Patients wear the equipment while sleeping, and the collected data is later analyzed by healthcare professionals.

Home sleep studies offer a convenient and cost-effective alternative to in-lab polysomnography, particularly for suspected obstructive sleep apnea. They allow for a more natural sleep environment, facilitating accurate diagnosis and tailored treatment plans.
