The Study
You will be greeted and shown to your room. A technologist will explain the
process and apply sensors to your body to measure oxygen levels, brain waves,
etc. From that point, you are free to spend the evening relaxing whether that
means reading or watching TV.
Lights Out
If you have not fallen asleep before 11 p.m., we ask that you begin to
prepare your body for a night of sleep.
Troubleshooting
We may have to enter your room for the following:
- To adjust
loose sensors and or replace electrodes.
- If you
have severe sleep apnea to fit you with a device to sleep.
