It can be said that there are two methods of evaluating certain aspects of sleep. PSM is more traditional and uses older equipment to assess a full scope of sleep disorders in a rather expensive and inconvenient way. Computerized home monitoring is a more modern way of monitoring sleep using improving technology, probably most applicable to snoring with sleep apnea, in a less expensive way. A joint study group should co-ordinate and encourage progress in both traditional and computerized procedures to the greater good of all.
可以说，评估睡眠某些方面有两种方法。多导睡眠图监测（PSM）更为传统，使用较旧的设备以一种相当昂贵且不便的方式来评估全面的睡眠障碍。计算机化家庭监测是一种利用不断改进的技术监测睡眠的更现代方式，可能最适用于伴有睡眠呼吸暂停的打鼾，且成本较低。一个联合研究小组应协调并鼓励传统方法和计算机化程序两方面取得进展，以造福所有人。
