Guest guest Posted March 23, 2006 Report Share Posted March 23, 2006 Valarie, my son has had ph probes placed in his nose to his stomach for reflux. Then they have done sleep studies on him too. He had a 72 hour eeg. He was hooked up to about 20 electrodes glues to his head and a camera on him at all times including during sleep. The machine was hug and we had to carry it all day. The wires were around a small room lenght so he couldn't move around alot. It was harder for him to sleep but it came back ok. No seizures. The tube placement was hard on him then an x-ray to be sure it was placed right. Hope that helps.

I thought it would be like an ng/ph probe type tube, but the nurse who called today said it is its own kind of tube, a PES tube. What is the difference? and, is it bad going in? I am thinking this will be a bad night.........electrodes everywhere, all over his head and legs and feet, and then a tube up his nose and down his throat........and then they want a " normal sleep time study " , like that will ever happen. I wish they would give a little versad or something for things like this, but they dont. Just wondering if anyone has had this experience.
