| Overnight Oximetry |
|
| An oximeter or a pulse oximeter, is a medical device that measures the amount of oxygen in the blood. The oximeter is attached to a monitor so as to enable a direct reading of your oxygenation at all times. You will place the oximeter on your finger at bedtime and wear it throughout your night of sleep. |

| This test typically takes place at your home and no preparation is needed for this test. |
