POLYSOMNOGRAPHIC RECORDING
Electroencephography (EEG): Sleep potentials mostly central
Electrooculography (EOG): Cornea: (+) charge; Retina: (-)charge
Electromyography (EMG): Chin muscle tone

SLEEP STUDY: LOGISTICS
Get there at 8-9PM.
Education about sleep disorder, mostly sleep apnea
Maybe fit for a mask if it is needed later
Sleep studies lasts from about 10-11PM until 5-6AM
Hook-up will take 30 minutes
Some paste on the scalp for EEG
Other electrodes placed with sticky sensors
It is not painful

HOW DO I PREPARE FOR IT
Bring yourself on time
Do not drink alcohol that day or night
Do not drink caffeine after 12PM
Do not take a nap
If you take a sleeping medication, it is OK to take it unless your doctor tells you otherwise
If you wear a mouthpiece for bruxism, wear it unless your doctor tells you otherwise

WHY DID MY DOCTOR ORDER ONE?
By far the most common indication for a sleep study is to determine if there is sleep apnea.

THESE ARE NOT INDICATIONS
Insomnia
RLS: RLS diagnosis is made in the office by history
Sleep study can be done in those with insomnia or RLS if sleep apnea or parasomnia is suspected.

Central Hypopneas: 0 0.0
Apnea-Hypopnea (AHI) 32.5
OXYGENATION:
With the patient awake and breathing ambient air, the average arterial oxygen
saturation was 90 % and during sleep the average arterial oxygen saturation
was 91 % with a nadir arterial oxygen saturation of 0 %. Time spent below 90%
oxygen saturation was 179.8 minutes and 55.4 % of total sleep time. The
oxygen desaturation index (4%) was 8.9. The oxygen desaturation index (3%)
was 16.3.

Bradycardia: No
Sinus Tachycardia: No
Wide Complex Tachycardia: No
Narrow Complex Tachycardia: No
Asystole: No
Atrial Fibrillation: No
Other arrhythmias: Occasional PVCs noted
MOVEMENT EVENTS:
There were 239 periodic limb movements during sleep for a periodic limb
movement index (PLMI) of 44.2/hr. There were 9 periodic limb movements during
sleep associated with arousal for a periodic limb movement arousal index
