Sleep studies can help your doctor diagnose sleep-related breathing disorders such as sleep apnea, sleep-related seizure disorders, sleep-related movement disorders, and sleep disorders that cause extreme daytime tiredness such as narcolepsy. Doctors also may use sleep studies to help diagnose or rule out restless legs syndrome.
Memorial Hospital currently offers a Sleep Study clinic at our Aurora facility. Your doctor will determine whether you must have your sleep study at a sleep center or if you can do it at home with a portable diagnostic device.
To make an appointment for a Sleep Study, a referral from a physician is required. If you believe you may need to be evaluated for sleep apnea, please make an appointment with your Family Physician or one of the Pulmonology Specialists listed in our Specialty Clinics tab.
