How do I know if I have sleep apnea?
Sleep apnea could affect all of us, including infants, without really noticing it. A definite diagnosis can be made only by a proper sleep study. A good night sleep is not the same in the hospital as it is at home. Therefore, as a first line basic screening test we recommend our patients undergo sleep study at home. Using a sleep monitor, we will look at 11 parameters including: oxygen saturation, heart rate, body position etc., while you are sleeping. The sleep monitor will be delivered to your home, fitted and explained to you. On the following morning the machine will be collected by courier. The recorded data will be uploaded to our system and analyzed by our team. Dr. Levente will discuss the findings with you and give you advise about your specialized treatment protocol. With this easy and simple method, you will know whether you are “just a simple snorer” or a potential victim of your sleep disorder.
