A sleep study is a non-invasive, overnight exam that allows doctors to monitor you while you sleep to see what’s happening in your brain and body. An EEG analyzes your sleep phases and the cycles of REM and nonREM or NREM sleep you go through throughout the night to uncover any abnormalities in your sleep pattern. A sleep study will also record your eye movements, oxygen levels in your blood (through a sensor—no needles are used), heart and breathing rates, snoring, and body movements.
The data from your sleep study will typically be collected by a technician and analyzed by your doctor.
