Sleep Disorder Center
Clinical studies have shown a link between insomnia and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). OSA is a common condition in which the upper airway repeatedly collapses during sleep, causing a decreased airflow that may lead to, or worsen, insomnia. Untreated OSA may cause excess stress on the heart, increasing the risk of uncontrolled blood pressure, heart attack and stroke.


ARE YOU AT RISK FOR OSA?

  • Do you snore?
  • Do you ever stop breathing during sleep?
  • Do you have trouble falling asleep?
  • Do you awaken at night and have difficulty falling
    back to sleep?
  • Do you feel sleepy during the day?
If you answered yes to two or more of these questions, talk to Dr. Singh. He can assess your need to have further evaluation of your breathing while you sleep. A sleep study will diagnose whether you have OSA and indicate the best treatment.


WHAT IS A SLEEP STUDY?

In order to be properly diagnosed, patients spend a night in a private room at our local sleep center, where sleep patterns. breathing and heart activity are monitored and recorded. The overnight recording is safe and painless.

  • Lower blood pressure

  • Relieve excess stress on the heart
  • Reduce the potential risk for heart attick, stroke and heart disease.
