The technicians in The Sleep Center perform evening or day sleep studies that will identify sleep disorders such as snoring, gasping for air, or restless sleep. The labs are equipped with modern technology that will monitor brain waves, oxygen levels, breathing pattern and rate, heart rhythms and rate, and limb movement while making the patient as comfortable as possible to encourage a good nights sleep. Additional devices such as CPAP or BiPAP machines and oxygen therapy may be used to correct certain problems identified.
