Recuerde que solo un médico puede determinar con precisión un plan de diagnóstico y tratamiento, y cada caso de apnea del sueño es individual y único. Otras opciones de diagnóstico que se pueden utilizar incluyen la prueba de latencia múltiple del sueño (MSLT) y la prueba de mantenimiento de la vigilia (MWT). Las opciones de tratamiento alternativas pueden incluir BiPAP, ASV, EPAP y el uso de un estimulador del nervio hipogloso.
