Garden Grove CA Sleep Center Helps Make a Good Night Sleep Possible
Is a good night’s sleep something you only (day) dream about?
Many people have sleep disorders, including insomnia, restless leg syndrome, snoring, narcolepsy, and sleep apnea. Many of these disorders are very common, including sleep apnea, which affects millions of Americans. There are solutions to these common sleep problems and a good night sleep is possible.
Sleep apnea occurs when there is an obstruction during sleep of normal airway passages. Simply put, the muscles in your throat collapse during the night preventing air from passing down the throat to the lungs and oxygen reaching the blood. People who suffer from apnea often exhibit common symptoms– such as startling awake in the night, loud snoring, waking with a headache, and feeling drowsy upon waking.
If you suspect that you may suffer from sleep apnea, or any other form of a sleep disorder, you should consult a doctor about your sleep disorder. One of the first steps would be to participate in a sleep study. Our Garden Grove CA sleep center offers a comfortable setting for your overnight stay. Our centers offer a comfortable setting with state of the art equipment, and fully staffed facilities.
When you come to a Garden Grove CA sleep center, our technicians will monitor your sleep cycle throughout the night. Our technicians monitor your heart rate, respiration, limb movements, and REM cycles. Your sleep cycles are recorded and our doctor reviews the results.
After your Garden Grove CA sleep center study, the results of the test will be forwarded to a designated sleep specialist for interpretation. The final report, including the interpretation will then be forwarded to a sleep specialist designated by your referring physician. Based on the results of the study, your physician may inform you that you suffer from sleep apnea. There are a number of possible treatments for sleep apnea. Two of the more common and most effective treatments are a CPAP machine or a Bi-Level (BiPAP) machine.
A CPAP machine (a Continuous Positive Airway Pressure machine) provides a steady flow of continuous positive air pressure through a nasal mask to keep the airway open during sleep. As a result breathing becomes regular and snoring is eliminated and Oxygen goes back to normal levels. A Bi-Level (BiPAP) machine is somewhat similar to a CPAP machine but has two different pressure settings, a higher setting with inhaling and a lower setting when exhaling.
Based on the results of your sleep study at our Garden Grove sleep center, your physician may determine that the use of a CPAP or a BiPAP is the appropriate treatment for you. Aside from the CPAP and Bi-Level (BiPAP), other solutions may include losing weight, use of oral appliances (dental devices) or in selected patients surgical approach. This again will be determined by your physician.
You’ll be amazed at the difference sleeping through the night makes for your over all health, your energy, and your positive outlook.
