Improve Your Sleep, Improve Your Life

Your quality of life is in large part a reflection of the quality of your sleep. If disruptive sleep issues are keeping you from being or doing or your best, let SVMC’s Sleep Disorder Center help. We’ll work with you to accurately diagnose and treat your issue to improve your night and every waking hour that follows.

Measuring your sleep is the first step to improving it. We offer a number of different studies to help us learn what is keeping you from sleeping well:

  • Polysomnography sleep study to measure brain waves, blood oxygen level, heart rate, breathing, and movement and to diagnose sleep disorders or to adjust treatment
  • Multiple Sleep Latency Testing (MSLT), or a daytime nap study, to measure excessive daytime sleepiness
  • Maintenance of Wakefulness Test (MWT) to test whether or not you are able to stay awake for a defined period of time

If you are found to have obstructive or central sleep apnea, you may benefit from using a device that regulates the pressure in your airway while you are sleeping. The device, which includes a mask to wear over your nose and mouth, is called a positive airway pressure (PAP) device. We will conduct a test that will help us determine the best air-pressure level (titration), fit you for a mask, and share information that will allow you to use your device properly.
