Do You Need Help?
There are many common sleep problems that often go unrecognized and untreated. You can take FusionSleep's FSQ10 test to try and determine whether you suffer from a sleep disorder. If you think that you might suffer from a sleep disorder, you can contact Fusion Sleep and book an appointment.
A team of experts in sleep medicine work together to diagnose your ailments. Patients will first be evaluated to determine if they are suffering from sleep disorders, and then directed to the program which will be most likely to help in each situation. For those who must stay overnight, the sleep center offers accommodations similar to a hotel room, with many amenities. Evaluating a sleep disorder requires that a patient be in an environment that is comfortable and as close to normal as possible.
One common diagnosis is sleep apnea, and the most common treatment is Positive Airway Pressure (PAP) Therapy. During PAP Therapy you will be monitored closely to determine the correct settings to give the best results, before being sent home with equipment that may be unfamiliar.
Another common solution for moderate to severe snoring and some forms of sleep apnea is an oral appliance that is worn at night. Fusion Sleep’s staff dentist can evaluate patients and build and fit such devices. The clinic also offers blue light therapy for circadian rhythm disorders.
Fusion Sleep's site hosts a section devoted to the link between sleep disorders and chronic illness - a must read for anyone concerned with long term health and preventing the chronic illnesses that plague so much of the modern world. Some of the problems linked with sleep disorders are diabetes, ADHD, hypertension, and obesity. A list of health insurers which cover sleep medicine is also provided.
Steps to a Good Night's Sleep
The inability to fall asleep, or a lack of refreshing sleep and daytime sleepiness are typical symptoms of a sleep disorder. In addition, snoring with pauses in breathing are indications of sleep disordered breathing or sleep apnea.
Seek Assistance with Managing your Sleep
If you suspect that a loved one, a friend, or even yourself may be suffering from a sleep disorder, it is suggested that you contact your family physician. Ask him or her about sleep disorders. Alternatively, schedule an appointment directly with one of the Board Certified Sleep Physicians at Fusion Sleep.
The Sleep Study
If part of the physician’s assessment involves polysomnography, Fusion Sleep can perform this test at their facility. The Sleep Study is similar to spending the night in a hotel room and having small sensors taped to you. These will record your activity during sleep. Trained sleep technologists are present the entire night to make sure everything runs smoothly and the study is of the highest quality standard.
