A sleep disorder clinic can identify problems that prevent you from getting quality sleep and hinder your everyday activities. Many people are often referred for sleep disorder studies by their primary care physician. A reputable sleep clinic will work alongside you and your physician(s) to help develop a treatment plan designed to improve your sleep, overall health and quality of life. Let’s take a brief look at some benefits of sleep disorder studies:
Diagnose Sleep Disorders
Sleep disorder studies are conducted by a registered sleep technician. We have a room at our sleep clinic that has the look and feel of a bedroom to ensure your comfort. During your sleeping disorders test, we will monitor your breathing, brain waves, stages of sleep, blood oxygen levels, blood pressure and movement of your chest wall and abdomen. We use the data gathered during your sleeping disorders test to determine if you have a problem such as obstructive sleep apnea, narcolepsy, REM sleep behavior disorder or upper airway resistance syndrome.
Improve Quality of Sleep
Sleep disorder studies are used to diagnose sleep problems. Once diagnosed, a course of treatment can be recommended. This treatment is designed to help improve your quality of sleep and, in many cases, has an affirmative effect on your partner, too!
Positively Affect Overall Health
A sleep disorder clinic not only tests for and treats sleep disorders, but we can also help improve the overall quality of your health. For example, when sleep disorder testing reveals obstructive sleep apnea, the use of a continuous positive air machine (CPAP) can lower the risk of a heart attack. Diagnosing and treating sleep problems can also resolve a plethora of other issues including snoring, insomnia, depression, restless legs, circadian rhythm disorders and nightmares / night terrors, just to name a few.
