Sleep within your comprehensive medical assessment
In a comprehensive medical evaluation, sleep is one of the most important issues to assess. It's not a routine question: how you rest explains a good part of how you feel during the day. When further investigation is needed, the person may be referred for specialized studies such as polysomnography, which can detect sleep stage disorders or obstructive sleep apnea. These are things that are difficult to identify on their own because they occur precisely when we are not awake to notice them.
