Polysomnography, commonly known as a sleep study, is a non-invasive procedure that allows healthcare professionals to monitor various physiological parameters while a patient sleeps, including brain activity, eye movements, and muscle activity. This test is essential in identifying sleep disorders, including insomnia, sleep apnea, and restless leg syndrome. During the study, the patient wears sensors on their head, chest, face, limbs, and finger and elastic belts for comfort during the analysis.
A treatment plan is created after the sleep study, which may involve CPAP therapy or other forms of treatment depending on the diagnosis. Sleep studies are useful in identifying sleep issues or underlying health conditions in patients. They can also determine if current treatments are effective in improving their health. Sleep studies play a crucial role in diagnosing and treating sleep-related disorders, allowing patients to achieve better sleep and improve their overall health.
Parents may have difficulty putting their children to bed, but this may be due to undiagnosed sleep disorders. Doctors diagnose these disorders by using sensors and belts placed on different parts of the child’s body, such as the head, mouth, fingertips, nose, chest, and legs. This process is painless and comfortable for the child.
Using this device to monitor a child’s sleep and breathing patterns can help doctors detect sleep disorders early. While sleep problems may seem harmless, they can lead to significant health issues in the future. Therefore, it is essential to identify and treat any sleep-related health problems in children as soon as possible. At Parkway Sleep Health Centers, we offer comprehensive tests to diagnose and treat sleep-related issues in children.
Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) is a common treatment for sleep-related breathing issues. It involves wearing a CPAP mask while sleeping to deliver positive airflow to the nasal passage or throat to maintain an open airway. Studies have demonstrated that CPAP can significantly improve daytime alertness, particularly for individuals with sleep disorders such as apnea.
However, some individuals may find that other sleep devices such as BiPAP, ASV, or APAP may better meet their specific needs. These devices include customized masks and attachments such as nasal masks, pillows, or full masks, as well as moveable tubing for improved comfort.
At Parkway Sleep Health, our team of sleep specialists and board-certified doctors provide comprehensive care to assist patients in finding the most suitable CPAP solution for their sleep-related concerns. We provide instructions on how to use and care for the CPAP sleep device and collaborate with patients to create a treatment plan tailored to their diagnosis. Strictly adhering to the treatment plan is critical for achieving the best outcomes.
A CPAP machine – short for continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) machine – creates consistent air pressure to help you maintain a constant open airway. Contact us now for help with your CPAP purchase.
BiPAP uses non-invasive mechanized, pressurized ventilation on a time or flow basis to pivot between two different levels of applied positive airway pressure.
APAP refers to automatic postitive airflow pressure which automatically adjusts to the user’s breathing patterns periodically, compared to CPAP which delivers a continuous flow.
We help you sort through all the face, nose, chin, nasal pillow, and mask weight options for your particular CPAP, APAP, or BiPAP machine. Reach out today so we can help you understand the different mask options.
ASV stands for adaptive servo-ventilation. ASV machines track and adjust air pressure in order to match your breathing patterns on an automated basis.
Get everything you need to keep your machine running smoothly, from a selection of masks to cleaning supplies. We provide one-stop convenience when it comes to all things CPAP here in NC.
