Sleep Apnea Test

About Sleep Apnea Test

Struggling with sleep lately? If you are, then visit our medical facility for a Sleep Apnea Test! If you have obstructive sleep apnea, your doctor might refer you to an ear, nose and throat doctor (otolaryngologist) to rule out blockage in your nose or throat. An evaluation by a heart doctor (cardiologist) or a doctor who specializes in the nervous system (neurologist) might be necessary to look for causes of central sleep apnea. Our medical team is ready to assist you!

In adults, the most common cause of obstructive sleep apnea is excess weight and obesity, which is associated with the soft tissue of the mouth and throat. During sleep, when throat and tongue muscles are more relaxed, this soft tissue can cause the airway to become blocked.Tests to detect sleep apnea include: Nocturnal polysomnography. During this test, you're hooked up to equipment that monitors your heart, lung and brain activity, breathing patterns, arm and leg movements, and blood oxygen levels while you sleep.
