You may be here because…
01Your ENT recommended tonsil or adenoid surgery, and you want more information before deciding
Tonsil and adenoid surgery is one of the most common procedures in children, and the recommendation is usually based on symptoms and an exam. Most children don’t have a sleep study beforehand.¹ If you’d like more information before deciding, our Sleep Test gives your child’s ENT or pediatrician overnight data to review with you.

02Your child had tonsil surgery, but you still notice symptoms
Surgery helps most children with sleep apnea, but for some, signs persist afterward, up to 1 in 4 otherwise healthy children, according to published studies.² If snoring, restless nights, or daytime tiredness haven’t gone away, our Sleep Test gives your child’s doctor overnight data to review at their follow-up.
2. Uwiera TC, Children 2021;8(11):944 : about 75% resolution in otherwise healthy, non-obese children, 51–83% across all children.
03Your child’s dentist or orthodontist is treating their airway
Some dentists and orthodontists use palatal expanders or other oral appliances as part of a child’s airway care. With a prescription, our Sleep Test provides overnight oxygen and heart-rate data their care team can review during follow-up.
04You were told to wait and see
You may have even been told your child could grow out of their symptoms. Watchful waiting is a common approach, and some children’s symptoms do indeed ease as they grow. Overnight data recorded at home gives your child’s doctor a reference point for their next visit.

Sleep disorders symptoms
Why should sleep disorders in children be detected early?
When detected early, effective treatments exist that are painless and non-surgical, helping children breathe and sleep better without invasive procedures.
At-home sleep test study for children vs. in-lab sleep study
*Kits typically arrive within 4–7 days of shipping, but carrier delays can sometimes occur.
An in-lab sleep study is the most comprehensive option, and hinlab doesn’t replace it. But when lab appointments can take months to access, hinlab gives your child’s doctor objective sleep information much sooner, helping them determine whether an in-lab study, ENT referral, or another next step is appropriate.

Simply follow the setup instructions to connect to Wi-Fi; data is automatically sent to our doctor for review after the third night, and you will receive your report within 2 - 3 days.
The results will include key clinical sleep metrics like ODI (Oxygen Desaturation Index) and hypoxic burden, among others.

Your hinlab report summarizes your child’s overnight oximetry data together with information from the Sleep Questionnaire. The report is not a diagnosis and should be interpreted by a healthcare professional who can consider the findings in the context of your child’s symptoms, medical history, and overall health.
If your child’s own doctor prescribed the test, the report is sent to them for review. If a hinlab physician prescribed the test, the report is sent to you to share with your child’s doctor.
After the test: The overnight recordings and your questionnaire responses are summarized into a Sleep Report. You and your physician will receive it within 2-3 days after the test.
Keep the Gabi Sensor for future monitoring. You can keep the device to perform further testing as your child grows or symptoms change. You simply pay $99 when you choose to conduct a new 3-night sleep test and generate a fresh clinical report.
