Uncovering the mysteries of sleep

Sweet Dreams Sleep Center offers professional sleep diagnostic services, ranging from comprehensive in-lab monitoring to convenient at-home testing. Each is designed to identify specific underlying causes of sleep disturbances, helping you achieve restful nights and energized days.

Common sleep diagnostic services

We offer a range of specialized services tailored to meet your individual needs. Our approach is focused on understanding and responding to what you require, providing effective and practical solutions.

  • Full Polysomnogram (PSG): This is a detailed sleep study that records brain waves, oxygen levels in the blood, heart rate, breathing, and eye/leg movements.
  • CPAP/BiPAP Titration: This process determines the optimal pressure needed from a CPAP (Continuous Positive Airway Pressure) or BiPAP (Bilevel Positive Airway Pressure) machine to alleviate obstructive sleep apnea.
  • Pediatric Sleep Studies: This is a Full Diagnostic or Titration study performed on children eight years of age and older in our Sleep Lab. The lab offers a kid friendly atmosphere to make it as comfortable as possible for the patient and a separate recliner for the caregiver to stay and sleep in the same room as the patient.
  • Multiple Sleep Latency Test (MSLT): An exam that measures how quickly a person falls asleep in a quiet environment during the day, used to diagnose narcolepsy and other forms of excessive daytime sleepiness.
  • Split Study: A diagnostic approach where the first half of the night is used for a standard sleep study, and if sleep apnea is diagnosed, the second half is used for CPAP titration.
  • Home Sleeping Test: A simplified sleep study conducted at the patient's home to diagnose obstructive sleep apnea by monitoring breathing patterns, oxygen levels, and other physiological parameters.
  • BiPAP AutoSV (Auto Servo Ventilation): A specialized BiPAP machine designed for individuals with complex sleep-related breathing disorders, automatically adjusting pressure to counteract apnea episodes.

Your path to better sleep starts here

Getting started with our sleep diagnostic services involves a clear path from recognizing symptoms to preparing for your evaluation. Our steps and resources are designed to make the process seamless.

Step 1: Identify your symptoms

Before scheduling, it is helpful to note any recurring issues that suggest a sleep disorder. Common signs that indicate you may need a diagnostic study include loud, chronic snoring or gasping for air during the night, excessive daytime sleepiness, morning headaches, or difficulty concentrating.

Step 2: Obtain a referral

Most sleep diagnostic centers require a physician’s order to schedule a study. Consult your doctor to discuss your symptoms with your primary care provider or a sleep specialist.
