If you suffer from daytime sleepiness, loud and frequent snoring, gasping, breathing pauses, morning headaches, nocturnal gastro-esophageal reflux or high blood pressure among others, you may have sleep apnea. You may qualify if:

• you have a history of sleepiness and a Body Max Index>30
• your sleep assessment (based on a questionnaire or interview with a health care provider) suggests a high risk for moderate to severe sleep apnea
• you have no other major health problems or sleep disorders
• your work puts you at risk for accidents, such as bus drivers or truck drivers
• you are undergoing a surgery and need a pre-operative assessment

As a reminder, a home sleep study does not screen for other potential sleep disorders, unlike a traditional laboratory sleep study.
