What to Expect on the Night of your Study
A sleep technologist will greet you upon your arrival to the laboratory and you will be asked to complete the patient forms. You will be assigned a spacious private room and allowed to change into your sleep attire. The set up for the Polysomnogram requires the use of non-invasive electrodes and monitoring devices that will be placed on the surface of your skin or above your clothes. You will be monitored during the study with a technician available to assist you at all times.
Upon completion, in the morning the monitoring devices will be removed at which time you will be released. A Board Certified Sleep Specialist will then interpret the exam and the results will be forwarded to your referring physician.
What to Expect for you Home Sleep Test
​
When you arrive to pick up your Home Sleep Test (HST) you may be asked to fill out a few patient forms and provide your insurance card and picture ID. Then our DME Specialist will teach you the steps to setup the HST. You will take it home for a few days. The device will collect data while you sleep. You will then return the HST back to Southern Sleep Diagnostics on the designated day for return.
