The purpose of the sleep study is to get a thorough understanding of your sleep and to identify disorders that interfere with sleep.
After visiting your doctor or taking a simple sleep quiz, it was recommended that the results indicate the high probability of sleep apnea, hypoventilation, or upper airway resistance, which should be treated if diagnostically confirmed through a sleep study.
