What is multiple sleep latency test (MSLT)?
An MSLT is a daytime sleep test which is sometimes performed in conjunction with an overnight sleep study. The test consists of a series of daytime naps which helps us better understand your sleep problem. Sensors and electrodes are used to record information similar to the polysomnogram. Naps are taken every two hours throughout the day. Please bring something to read or work to keep you occupied in between the naps. A television and a DVD player are available. Plan to spend the entire day possibly until 9:00 pm in the Sleep Center.
