Breaking Down How To Read a WatchPat Sleep Study

Описание: Giving us all the details about the EASIEST to use WatchPat home sleep study, Glennine Varga. In today’s episode we will talk all about the spectrum of sleep disordered breathing. Starting with mouth breathing, snoring, upper airway resistance (UARS), and sleep apnea. She will walk us through how to use a WatchPat and most importantly how to read and understand what it means.

The WatchPat can tell you about respiratory disturbances based off body position and Non REM vrs REM sleep. It can also clue you into the easily overlooked sleep disorders that may not be apnea, but you still feel like garbage. These can be UARS or lack of enough deep sleep due to constant sleep arousals.

Today’s episode is also invaluable because so often people are tired and seek a sleep study only to be told, “You don’t have sleep apnea” and that’s it. No other options given. The wonderful thing about understanding your study is to be able to make changes that can help you sleep better, such as myofunctional therapy, whether to go for expansion to give you more tongue space, or an ENT evaluation to check for airway obstructions.
