Sleep Studies
All sleep studies are performed in a clean, professional and caring atmosphere. A comfortable setting that includes a private room with a queen-size bed, helps to ensure the best possible night's rest while the study is being performed.
The sleep study is painless, the technologist will apply sensors to the head, face, chest, abdomen and legs. Equipment will monitor brain waves, eye movements, breathing and blood oxygen levels, heart rate, and muscle activity during sleep. These functions may be normal while the individuals are awake, but abnormal during sleep. The referring physician will receive a complete sleep report, which defines and diagnoses the sleep-rated problem and includes a recommended treatment plan.
AllianceHealth Oklahoma's sleep lab captures the meaning of a good night's sleep by finding a treatment that best suits a patient's needs. Once a sleep study is completed, a patient can carry on business as usual the next day. A sleep technologist will review the lab results and communicate their findings with the patient's physician.
A person spends one-third of their life asleep, or is supposed anyway. Our sleep lab's goal is to provide the proper diagnosis and therapy necessary for good night's sleep If you or a loved one are experiencing symptoms of a sleep disorder, please contact your primary care provider to determine if a sleep study is right for you.
