SLEEP LABORATORY By: Dr.Eng.Walid Tarawneh 1" Oct. 2017 Sleep & Stages of Sleep C2 Steep is a normal state of rest that is characterized by unconsciousness, reduced activity, and limited sensory responsiveness. Sleep differs from other states of reduced consciousness. such as drug intoxication or coma, because it is spontaneous, periodic, and readily reversible. 1 Waketulness is characterized by consciousness, sensory responsiveness, and purposeful activity. CO The 100% sleep cycle consist of: Four Non-REM” Stages of Sleep, REM" Stage Wakefulness * REM: Rapid Eye Movement Normal circadian seep rhythm.

Usually this is caused by breathing problems where breaths stop or are not deep enough to maintain oxygen in the blood. [1]. © Sleep disordered breathing (SDB) includes various conditions caused by problems with respiration during sleep. The most common type of SDB, obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) affects many people. Deer, a aan tomer 3 Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) There are different types of sleep apnea, with the most common being obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA); Is a disorder in which your breathing repeatedly stops (apnea) or gets very shallow (hypopnea) while sleeping. This can happen up to 30 times each hour during sleep, and can last for 10 to 30 seconds at a time. Person don't usually wake up fully during these interruptions, but they Keep him/her from geting the deep sleep needed. For People who have OSA, the muscles in the upper throat relax and create a blockage in your airway Untreated OSA nol only prevents you from geting enough sleep, but also can increase your risk for serious health problems such as high bloo pressure, heart attack, and stroke.

These tests help the clinician to evaluate & diagnose a variely of sleep problems and figure out the best treatment. The most common of these problems is obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). The most common sleep study is called a Polysomnogram (PSG). During a PSG, sensors are attached to your body to measure and record detailed information while you sleep, including the following: Brain waves Heart rate and rhythm Breathing rate and effort Oxygen level Eye movements Muscle activity eoo0oo0ogo Deere, wa aan tombe 5 Sleep Study Levels ‘Sieep studies can be performed only in special conditions and in a sleep status. ‘According to [283], the sleep studies are classified to the folowing levels; © Level |; (at hospital sleep lab) * Involve overnight testing in a sleep laboratory * Noeds a healthcare professional in attendance ‘+ Reference for the diagnosis of SDB, as it captures different types of physiological data. * Rolatively expensive test, because of equipment & trained personnel required © Levellll ; (at hospital sleep lab) * similar to a level | sleep study in the equipment & channels (both respiratory and sleep staging) used, but without a heath care professional in attendance © Level; (at home) * Some times callad oligosomnography * Portable device used by the patient et home * without a health care professional in attendance © Level Iv: (at home) * without direct medical supervision * Limited measurements (capturing of oxygen saturation or airiow) Used mainly for screening for OSA, rather than for diagnostic purposes.

The high technical failure rate observed in the home setting is likely because these were unattended studies. ™ On the other hand the expanded use of tele-health networks may provide improved access to sleep studies for individuals in remote communities in future.
