Sleep Apnea Screening
If your symptoms make you suspect sleep apnea, screening tools can help decide if you are at high risk for sleep apnea. These are usually questionnaires, but sometimes other tests are used, too. We have a sleep apnea risk quiz on our website.
Sleep apnea screening can’t tell if you have sleep apnea or not, but it can help us decide to recommend a sleep test.
Sleep Tests
A sleep test is the only way to diagnose sleep apnea. The common way to perform a sleep test is a polysomnography (PSG) conducted at a sleep lab.
A sleep lab PSG gives more detailed information. This can help distinguish between sleep apnea and other sleep conditions that might be hard to distinguish with an HST.
Do I Have to Be Diagnosed before I Come to You?
No. We can work with you, your insurance company, and your doctors if needed, to make sure you get an appropriate evaluation of your sleep. This is what we do all day, every day, and we can guide you in this process.
