    Wow. This is a great video for a med student. Thank you so much for sharing. I wish everyone could be as clear and concise.

      Appreciate video content! Excuse me for the intrusion, I am interested in your thoughts. Have you thought about - Letochy Fast Apnea Plan (search on google)? It is an awesome exclusive guide for curing your sleep apnea without the normal expense. Ive heard some interesting things about it and my mate finally got astronomical success with it.

    It's annoying that 99.9% of all content about sleep studies are about sleep apnea! There are other sleep issues.

      I'm a sleep tech and I think the reason behind this is that they really do make up the majority of people's sleep problems. A MSLT, a diagnostic test for narcolepsy, is probably the second most common type of study we run and issue we work with.

      ​@@kaylagonzalez3465 if someone is doing the study and you can see they stopped breathing do you guys give them oxygen or since they failed the test instead of waiting to speak to the doctor about the test do they see someone right away for a Cpap machine?
