When Your Energy is Not There, and You Are Not Sleeping,You May Need an Overnight Oximetry


When you go to the doctor for care, the nurse takes your vitals and places this little clip on your finger.

When you go to the doctor for care, the nurse takes your vitals and places this little clip on your finger.  Do you know what that is?  Perhaps you have never heard of an oximetry test.   Performing this test can measure theoxygen saturation level in your blood.  It is an easy and simple test and it will give a matter of fact answer to how well you may be sleeping at night.  But like you, many of us are tired and so exhausted that we can barely make it from morning to night without our bodies begging for rest.For this reason, your doctor may order a sleep study kit and a pulse oximetry test.  These will help him to determine what issues are leading to the lethargy during the day.  Both tests will make diagnosis of your condition much easier and quicker. VirtuOx is a provider that is a courier of oximeters to and from the home of the patient.  This is such an easy way for a physician to order and perform tests for patients that may not be as ambulatory and a home setting is best for them.All that is needed to determine optimal oxygen levels in your blood is your finger.  Your fingertip can tell the doctor how good oxygen being sent to your extremities. 

 

You must understand and believe that a test that can reveal so much can be done in the comforts of home with just the tip of the finger.  If your doctor want to determine if you are suffering from sleep apnea, this may be one of the best ways to determine the extent of your disorder.  Also, if you are a patient that must get home oxygen qualification, this can also be done using an overnight oximetry test.  Patients with claims for home oxygen therapy must have qualified test results.Overnight oximetry can help the doctor with your diagnosis and the severity of your condition.  The results of the test will be sent through a software application to your physician.  The physician will receive a faxed detailed report.  He will then use the results he receives to plan your treatment which may include an order for home oxygen.  So there.  Today you may feel droopy and drowsy.  Tomorrow you can feel invigorated and refreshed.
