Sleep Medicine
Swedish Sleep Medicine’s team of leading specialists are board-certified in sleep medicine as well as in subspecialties in neurology, psychiatry, internal medicine, neuro-psychiatry, pediatrics and pediatric pulmonary medicine.
Using the latest technology, we can diagnose and treat the full-range of adult and child sleep disorders including:
- Snoring
- Sleep Apnea
- Children's Sleep Disorders
- Circadian Rhythm
- Daytime Sleepiness
- Insomnia
- Narcolepsy
- Parasomnia (nightmares, sleep walking, night terrors and confessional arousals)
- Restless Legs Syndrome
- Shift-Work/Jet Lag
- Women's sleep during and after pregnancy and menopause
The gold standard for the diagnosis of sleep disorders is an overnight sleep study or polysomnography, attended by a sleep tech, in a Sleep Center. Only such tests are validated for the diagnosis of mild obstructive sleep apnea and many of the other (over one hundred) sleep disorders
Some insurers recommend home sleep tests for likely moderate to severe obstructive sleep apnea as a cost-effective alternative to a traditional overnight sleep study. If the home sleep test turns out to be inconclusive, or some other disorder is suspected, an overnight sleep study in the sleep lab (polysomnography) may still be needed.
If you have concerns about your sleep, and you would like to know if you are eligible for a sleep test, please contact us to schedule a complete sleep evaluation. Our providers will determine what sleep test is right for you.
