Sleep Studies
Millions of Americans do not get a good night’s sleep on a regular basis. Sleep allows the body to renew itself both physically and mentally. Without regular sufficient sleep, we suffer. Thanks to the Baldwin Health Sleep Disorders Center, many have found the help and relief they need for consistent, restful sleep.
Using modern, non-invasive equipment, a specially trained sleep technician will monitor your heart rate, respiratory system, muscle activity, oxygen levels, brain activity, sleep movements and body position. The information gathered from the study allows a board-certified sleep physician to evaluate and diagnose your condition.
Technology is only as good as the people using it. That’s why the staff is a team of friendly, compassionate sleep technicians who are trained to balance your comfort with the need of a quality sleep study. From scheduling your test to completing your paperwork to performing your study, your comfort is our priority.
Your primary care physician will receive the test results and use this information to help determine the appropriate course of treatment. Sleep studies can be arranged for daytime hours to accommodate varied work schedules. The center’s patient rooms feature queen beds, private bathrooms and TVs. Our patients enjoy more of a hotel-type experience instead of trying to sleep in a typical hospital bed.
Sleep disorders are sometimes hard to diagnose. Often, a loved one or family member will be the first to notice a sleep disorder before a patient seeks treatment. Baldwin Health has combined technology with a personal touch in our sleep center.
