Sleep
Quiz |
| sleep is a basic necessity
of life. It is as important to our health and well-being as air,
food and water. When we get a good nights sleep, we awake
feeling refreshed, alert and ready to face the many challenges
of our daily routine.
When we don't, we suffer. Our jobs,
relationships, productivity, health and safety -- as well as the
safety of those around us -- are put at risk.
Look for the warning signs of sleep apnea:
Extremely Loud snoring
Sleepiness during the day
Waking up frequently
Concentration difficulties
lost productivity
forgetfulness
irritability
Anxiousness
Depression
Mood or behavior changes

Sleep Apnea is a serious, potentially life threatening
condition. It is a breathing disorder in which a person stops
breathing repeatedly during sleep. Sleep Apnea and snoring,
which affect 4% of adult men and 2% of adult women are no
laughing matter. People who do not seek diagnosis and treatment
for sleep apnea may decrease their quality of life. Early
recognition and treatment of sleep apnea is important because it
may be associated with irregular heartbeat, high blood pressure,
heart attack and stroke. more |

Overview |
| Sleep study is a simple, painless overnight
procedure where your brain waves, muscles activity, leg
movements, heart rhythms and other body functions can be
monitored by a highly skilled sleep technologist while
you sleep. Our highly-qualified staff will do everything
possible to make you comfortable during your stay at the
sleep center. |
|
| There are three types of sleep apnea: obstructive,
central, and mixed; of the three, obstructive is the
most common. Despite the difference in the root cause of
each type, in all three, people with untreated sleep
apnea stop breathing repeatedly during their sleep,
sometimes hundreds of times during the night and often
for a minute or longer. |
|
The most common treatment for obstructive sleep
apnea is Continuous Positive Airway Pressure or CPAP.
This provides a gentle flow of positive pressure air
through a nasal mask to keep the airway open during
sleep. Other therapies include surgery, oral appliances,
lifestyle modifications (sleep hygiene, weight loss,
exercise, sufficient hours of sleep), and avoidance of
alcohol, sedatives, hypnotics and tobacco.
