What you should know about sleep disorders and their symptoms.
Sleep apnea is a condition when one stops breathing repeatedly for short periods of time during sleep normally due to an upper airway obstruction and is termed as obstructive sleep apnea.
Narcolepsy is a chronic sleep disorder in which the brain loses its ability to regulate the sleep-wake cycle.
At Stardust Sleep Labs, we utilize 2 industry-standard tests to allow you to assess if you are at high risk of Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) and if you have Excessive Daytime Sleepiness (EDS).
Polysomnography (PSG)
Also known as a sleep study, is the main test required to diagnose sleep disorders. It is most often used to diagnose sleep apnea but is also widely used to diagnose other conditions such as narcolepsy, periodic limb movement disorder and obesity hypoventilation syndrome.
It is a comprehensive test that records a variety of body functions during sleep and is usually done overnight in a hospital setting.
