How Should the Multiple Sleep Latency Test Be Analyzed? [PDF]
Sleep, 1997 Results of the multiple sleep latency test (MSLT) are commonly recorded as 4-5 latencies to sleep onset, together with their mean. The suitability of these and other MSLT measures of daytime sleep tendency was examined in 111 non-narcoleptic patients of a sleep disorders center.
