How to Choose a Sleep Apnea Facility

Sleep clinic search for those that don't have a primary care physician can usually self-refer them to a sleep clinic. Although it's best to have a primary care physician who can send over your medical records to a sleep clinic for evaluation, sometimes this isn't possible. Suppose you're dead set on seeing a sleep specialist without going through a primary care physician. In that case, you will more than likely have to have a consultation with a sleep clinic's sleep specialist who will take a detailed history of your symptoms and determine whether or not a sleep study is necessary Sleep Apnea Greensboro.

Signs of Sleep Apnea

If you're getting a full night of sleep but still feel tired all day, apnea might be affecting the quality of your sleep. You might nod off when reading or in front of the TV. You might be more irritable, less productive, and make more mistakes at work. You might even find yourself catching more colds since poor quality sleep can interfere with the immune system.

Complications Associated with Sleep Apnea

Positive airway pressure machines, used with a variety of breathing masks, are the most widely used treatment for moderate and severe sleep apnea. The mask is worn snugly over the nose, or sometimes nose and mouth, during sleep, supplies pressurized air that flows continuously or intermittently into the sleeper’s throat. The increased air pressure prevents the sleeper’s airway from collapsing.
