Apnea diagnostic test
A sleep study is a medical test that monitors a person while they sleep, recording brain activity, breathing patterns, heart rate, and body movements to diagnose disorders like sleep apnea or insomnia.
The test typically takes place overnight at a specialized clinic: The doctor ordered a sleep study after I complained about snoring and daytime fatigue.
