A sleep study is a non-invasive overnight study that allows doctors to monitor your brain and body during sleep. You'll go to a sleep lab set up for overnight stays for this test. An EEG tracks the sleep cycles you go through during the night to detect abnormalities in your sleep pattern. It also monitors your eye movements, blood oxygen levels, heartbeat, snoring, and body movements.
