A conventional sleep study test is traditionally performed at a sleep lab. A home sleep test aims to monitor and record sleep parameters such as oxygen levels or breathing patterns, providing insights into sleep disorders for reliable diagnosis and productive treatment options.

The divided and low-quality sleep brought about by OSA can bring about daytime sluggishness, diminished mental capability, trouble thinking, and debilitated execution in day-to-day exercises, including work and driving. Untreated OSA can deteriorate other ailments like diabetes, and asthma, making it harder to deal with these circumstances. Additionally, it may contribute to the onset or escalation of mental health issues like anxiety and depression.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/2″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][image_with_animation image_url=”222″ image_size=”full” animation_type=”entrance” animation=”flip-in-vertical” animation_easing=”default” animation_movement_type=”transform_y” hover_animation=”none” alignment=”” border_radius=”none” box_shadow=”none” image_loading=”default” max_width=”100%” max_width_mobile=”default”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”full_width_content” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” equal_height=”yes” content_placement=”middle” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” right_padding_desktop=”288″ top_margin=”100″ constrain_group_7=”yes” bottom_margin=”100″ top_margin_tablet=”100″ text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” id=”sleep-4″ overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none” gradient_type=”default” shape_type=””][vc_column top_padding_desktop=”50″ constrain_group_100=”yes” bottom_padding_desktop=”50″ column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ background_image=”720″ background_image_position=”left center” background_image_stacking=”default” background_image_loading=”default” column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”custom” top_right_border_radius=”22″ bottom_right_border_radius=”22″ column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” el_class=”back-co” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/2″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”advanced” column_border_style=”solid” column_padding_type=”advanced” gradient_type=”default”][image_with_animation image_url=”522″ image_size=”full” animation_type=”entrance” animation=”flip-in-vertical” animation_easing=”default” animation_movement_type=”transform_y” hover_animation=”none” alignment=”center” border_radius=”none” box_shadow=”none” image_loading=”default” max_width=”100%” max_width_mobile=”default”][\/vc_column][vc_column left_padding_desktop=”106″ column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” el_class=”con1″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/2″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” column_padding_type=”advanced” gradient_type=”default”][vc_custom_heading text=”iSleep Physicians Group” font_container=”tag:h2|text_align:left|color:%23183266″ use_theme_fonts=”yes” css_animation=”fadeInDown” el_class=”heading4″][vc_custom_heading text=”Difference Between a Home Sleep Study and an In-Lab Sleep Test ” font_container=”tag:h2|text_align:left|color:%23183266″ use_theme_fonts=”yes” css_animation=”fadeInRight” el_class=”heading1″][vc_column_text css_animation=”fadeInRight”]A portable device that monitors the sleep parameters during sleep is the cornerstone of a home sleep study conducted from the privacy of the home. The device can measure oxygen levels, breathing patterns, and the variation in heart rate. Compared to a conventional sleep study, the HST device is easy to use and less intrusive. Even though HST allows convenient testing and enables better sleep provided a familiar environment, the data collected is selective and limited.<\/p>\n

On the contrary, polysomnography happens in a sleep lab center, where patients sleep overnight in a monitored environment. In addition, multiple sleep parameters can be examined within a night. Spanning from brain waves, eye movements, and muscle activity to heart rate or airflow, a trained technician records all the necessary parameters by attaching various sensors. The extensive data collected allows detection of the severity of sleep apnea. Additionally, an in-lab test provides for the diagnosis of other sleeping disorders.
