How does the doctor know I have sleep apnea?

Once the recorder is returned, one of our RANA sleep doctors, with experience in the diagnosis and treatment of sleep apnea, reviews the data from your sleep study.

While everyone experiences small breathing disruptions during sleep, someone with sleep apnea may have as many as one hundred of these events each hour. The number of apneas you have per hour of sleep determines how severe your sleep apnea is. If the sleep study test is inconclusive for sleep apnea, the doctor will refer you to another professional who can help diagnose your sleeping disorder.
