The 2-suite lab is staffed by experienced Polysomnography Technicians and Respiratory Care Practitioners under the direction of Dr. Timothy Clark. The Sleep Disorder Center offers polysomnography. Polysomnography or sleep study is a painless test to measure sleep cycles and stages by recording brain waves (EEG), muscle and eye movement, breathing rate, blood pressure, blood oxygen saturation and hearth rhythm. These non-invasive tests can provide diagnostic information for the patient’s doctor to use to develop a treatment plan.
You can use the Epworth Sleepiness Scale to evaluate your daytime sleepiness. You can return your Epworth Sleepiness Scale to the Sleep Lab by fax at 970-479-7188 or by email. Please contact your healthcare provider if you would like to find out if a sleep study might be for you.
