Sleep studies can help identify a wide range of sleep disorders such as Periodic Limb Movement Disorder, Restless leg Syndrome, Circadian Rhythm Disorders, Idiopathic Hypersomnia, Narcolepsy, Central Sleep Apnea, Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA), Upper Airway Resistance Syndrome, Parasomnias, Obesity Hypoventilation Syndrome etc.

An alternative to conducting sleep studies is conducting them at the home of the patient. This reduces the cost and increases the comfort of the patients. However, home based studies can be done only in limited cases such as OSA etc, whereas other disorders usually need a lab test.

Sleep labs help diagnose a wide range of sleep diseases, including:

• 1. Sleep apnea (obstructive, central, and complex)
• 2. nsomnia
• 3. Narcolepsy
• 4. Parasomnias (e.g., sleepwalking, night terrors)
• 5. Restless legs syndrome (RLS)
• 6. Periodic limb movement disorder (PLMD)
• 7. Circadian rhythm sleep disorders

Grounded on the findings from sleep studies, sleep specialists develop individualized treatment plans. These may include life changes, nonstop positive airway pressure( CPAP) remedy, specifics, or other interventions.
