我们提供的睡眠研究

We offer overnight sleep studies through the 睡眠障碍实验室, including:  

夜间多导睡眠图(NPSG) 这是评估睡眠障碍的标准夜间睡眠研究. 我们在睡眠中测量所有的生理功能, 包括呼吸, 脑电波活动, 心率, 肌肉运动, 血氧饱和度和打鼾.

扩展脑电图睡眠记录: We perform an NPSG along with an EEG, a test that measures brain activity. We may use this test if we suspect a patient has seizures at nighttime.

多重睡眠潜伏期测试(MSLT): This daytime test measures how sleepy a patient is after a full night of sleep. 我们在NPSG过夜后使用它. We may use this test to diagnose narcolepsy or other forms of excessive daytime sleepiness.

带末潮CO2的NPSG: This is a modified NPSG where we also measure the level of CO2 (carbon dioxide) at the end of each exhale. 这个测试可以帮助我们发现肥胖、呼吸不足等情况. 我们也经常用这个测试来诊断儿童的睡眠障碍.

快速眼动睡眠行为障碍: During this modified NPSG, we attach small, metal discs (electrodes) to the patient’s arms and legs. These electrodes measure muscle activity during REM sleep to diagnose conditions that cause people to act out their dreams.

Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) or bi-level positive airway pressure (BiPAP) titration: CPAP和BiPAP是治疗睡眠呼吸暂停的常用方法. 通过这项研究, we evaluate what pressure levels most effectively treat apnea in individual patients.

分夜研究: This two-part study involves a two- to four-hour diagnostic test with a therapeutic test. 如果诊断测试显示有睡眠呼吸暂停的可能性, 我们可能会让患者在当晚使用CPAP机器. We measure the patient’s response to the CPAP machine to determine if it would be effective treatment.

清醒维持试验(MWT): We measure whether a patient can stay awake in a sleep-induced environment. 我们经常用这个测试来评估治疗的效果.
