Sleep Apnea, Snoring, Narcolepsy, Insomnia and Other Sleep Disorders
Diagnostic Capabilities Print

 

We are the only truly full-service sleep center in central Ohio.

We are dedicated to ensuring that we can help all patients, irrespective of the nature of their difficulties.


Achieving this goal requires the immediate availability of special testing capabilities that unfortunately are not offered by many centers.

For example, we can do specialized testing for:

  • SEIZURES: a frequently undetected cause of disrupted sleep, abnormal sleep behaviors and daytime impairment.
  • ACID REFLUX DURING SLEEP : a common, easily overlooked reason for sleep related chest pain, choking, coughing and breathing difficulty.
  • UPPER AIRWAY RESISTANCE SYNDROME (an extremely widespread but seldom diagnosed condition that results in chronic excessive sleepiness).
    Many patients who are being treated for idiopathic hypersomnia with medicines and who are doing poorly actually have upper airway resistance syndrome!
  • BUILDUP OF CARBON DIOXIDE IN THE BLOOD: a dangerous problem that can depress breathing and that can be worsened by oxygen administration.
