The Center for Sleep Medicine

Not getting enough sleep? Sleep deprivation is a significant health and safety problem that affects nearly 70 million people in the U.S. It may be caused by a number of sleep disorders and often leads to physical, mental and social problems. For effective treatment, sleep medicine specialists need to evaluate the results of a patient’s overnight sleep study.

Holy Name's Center for Sleep Medicine provides professional one-night sleep studies that can be done in the Center's hotel-like, state-of-the-art accommodations or at the patient's home. The multidisciplinary sleep medicine team evaluates each patient and determines the most appropriate study based on the patient’s individual needs, symptoms and overall health status.

Once the sleep study is concluded, a board-certified sleep medicine physician interprets the results and recommends treatment options, based on the patient's individual needs and condition. The physician then sends the results and consults with the patient's personal doctor.

The Center is accredited by the American Academy of Sleep Medicine and is directed by pulmonologists and internists who are board-certified in sleep medicine.

The sleep team can test for sleep disorders such as

• Sleep apnea (interrupted breathing during sleep that can happen hundreds of times per night)
• Periodic limb movement syndrome
• Parasomnia (sleep walking and talking)
• Narcolepsy (involuntary chronic excessive daytime sleepiness)
• Menopause-related sleep problems
