You wake up in the morning with a sore throat and a pounding headache that makes you wonder if you were at an all night party. On your way to work you have trouble stifling the yawns that constantly come. At work it takes all of your energy to stay awake and complete the task at hand. When you go to bed that night, your spouse announces they're sleeping in the spare room because your snoring the night before kept them awake. By now you might be wondering what's going on with you? It's quite possible these symptoms could mean you have something called sleep apnea.
Sleep is essential for good health. However, millions of people suffer with some type of sleep disorder that prevents them from having a good night's sleep. Often the symptoms of a sleep disorder go unrecognized and untreated. Without help, an individual's quality of life can suffer, possibly leading to other medical conditions or even an injury.
The Magic Valley Sleep Institute is dedicated to diagnosing and treating a variety of sleep disorders.
You're in good hands with our highly trained physicians and technicians.
A polysomnogram, or sleep study, is an outpatient procedure performed overnight at the Sleep Institute. Several small electrodes are placed on the surface of the skin to monitor overnight sleep patterns such as brain waves, muscle activity, heart rate, breathing, and snoring. Sometimes additional testing is needed during the day to diagnose other types of sleep disorders. A consultation is often offered before and after testing to tailor the testing, diagnosis, and treatment to your needs.
The sleep Institute offers rapid diagnostic and treatment services to restore quality, restful sleep. Trained sleep specialists will interpret the results and work with you to find the most appropriate treatment.
Now that you’ve had your test what can I expect now? What now sheet.
Accommodations: The private rooms used for testing resemble comfortable hotel rooms, with large comfortable beds, individual thermostats in each room, cable TV and restful decor.
