Snoring and Sleep Lab

Our sleep lab is designed to evaluate, diagnose, treat and help patients to manage OSA. The sleep study is a painless process conducted on the patient at night, whereby the patient has to sleep without any sedative. A specially trained technologist puts the patient on nasal thermistar to measure the nasal air flow, a mic to record the snoring, sensors to the head, face, chest, abdomen and legs. Our State-of-the-art polysomnograph monitors brain waves, breathing, blood oxygen levels, heart rate, snoring and muscle activity during sleep. On the next day the patient will receive a complete sleep report which defines and diagnoses the sleep-related problem. If the test is positive, then on the second night the patient sleeps with the CPAP machine, which prevents the air passage from choking. The air pressure at which the patient needs to sleep is detected by the titration machine.
