Sleep study

I did my first home sleep study last night, the hospital set it up to come on at 9.30pm I connected up all the wires myself to the device myself I'm worried that when it came on none of the lights at the front of the device were flashing is this normal. I know the pulse device was working as it was red on my finger. Are the lights supposed to flash.

Hi claralou81,

Sorry, I can't remember. not to worry, even if there was a problem they will just do it again. I assume they are checking for sleep apnoea?

Yes they are looking for sleep apnoea, I just hope it was all ok but the hospital had programmed it to come on.

Was diagnosed a year ago - the CPAP was like a breath of fresh air ... it a strange way it's so much better knowing because then they treat it

Best wishes
