What is a Sleep Study and Why It May Be Important

Will a Sleep Study Help Me?

We’ve shared before the importance of fitting your room for the perfect sleeping environment; we’ve also shared tips on how to sleep well at night. You think to yourself, “I’ve done all I can, but nothing seems to work—I just must be one of those people who can’t sleep!” Where do we go from here? You may have heard of a sleep study or polysomnography. What is a sleep study? Will it help? From Fred’s Beds, a mattress outlet north of Atlanta, our specialists are here to break down sleep studies and how they might help you overcome disturbances at night.

Breaking Down Sleep Studies

The Process

Sleep studies are non-invasive procedures designed to monitor your sleeping habits to detect any disturbances in your sleep. Some areas that may be evaluated are your breathing patterns, heart rate, eye movement, and general body movement. Administered by a technician, sleep studies usually involve placing sensors on your body to best understand your sleeping habits. While the study is performed in a dark and comfortable room suited for sleeping, sleep study patients are encouraged to be relaxed, prepared for a restful night just like any other.

The Result

After your study, you will receive test results that include information such as sleep disruptions, sleep stages, and body positions. This impactful information shows what interruptions you may experience sleeping each night. Once the results are in, therapy and other solutions may be recommended. These next steps are designed to match your sleeping style to help you find that elusive good night of sleep. This is to benefit you, your partner, and your everyday quality of life.

Do They Work?

Sleep studies are great for identifying exactly what is keeping you from getting a full night of sleep regularly. If sleep disturbances are ongoing for you, a sleep study will accurately identify that. That said, the solutions and therapies recommended based on your sleeping habits may or may not make a profound difference in your sleep routine.
