Sleep Studies: Diagnosing and Treating Sleep Disorders for Better Rest and Health

Sleep is essential to overall health and well-being, yet millions of people struggle with sleep disorders that disrupt their lives. Our Sleep Studies offer comprehensive evaluation and diagnosis of sleep-related conditions, helping you achieve restful, restorative sleep and improve your quality of life.

What is a Sleep Study?

A Sleep Study, also known as polysomnography, is a non-invasive diagnostic test that monitors your body’s functions while you sleep. It records a range of vital data, including:

• Brain wave activity

• Heart rate and rhythm

• Breathing patterns and oxygen levels

• Muscle activity and movements

• Eye movements

This detailed information allows us to identify irregularities that may be causing sleep disturbances and recommend effective treatments.

Types of Sleep Studies We Offer

Overnight Sleep Studies

Conducted in a specialized sleep lab, overnight studies provide an in-depth analysis of your sleep patterns in a controlled environment. This is ideal for diagnosing conditions such as:

• Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA)

• Central sleep apnea

• Narcolepsy

• Periodic limb movement disorder

• REM sleep behavior disorder

Home Sleep Testing (HST)

For patients who prefer the comfort of their own bed, Home Sleep Testing is a convenient option. While less comprehensive than lab-based studies, HST is effective for evaluating suspected obstructive sleep apnea and other common conditions.

Common Sleep Disorders We Diagnose

• Sleep Apnea: Interrupted breathing during sleep, leading to snoring, fatigue, and potential health risks like heart disease.

• Insomnia: Difficulty falling or staying asleep, often caused by stress, anxiety, or underlying medical issues.

• Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS): Uncomfortable sensations in the legs that interfere with restful sleep.

• Narcolepsy: A neurological disorder causing excessive daytime sleepiness and sudden sleep attacks.
