Sleep Study Center
The Queen of Peace Sleep Study Center helps uncover common and not-so-common sleep disorders. Affiliated with Precision Diagnostic Services, trained polysomnographers perform sleep studies for patients throughout the week.
The Queen of Peace sleep lab surroundings, especially the bedrooms, are homey, softly lit, and comfortable. The technical equipment and technicians are housed in a separate room from the sleeping room.
Common Symptoms
Do you, or does someone you know:
- snore frequently
- have high blood pressure
- is overweight
- experience morning headaches
- wake up feeling tired and non-refreshed
- have difficulty concentrating and completing daily tasks
- feel sleepy during the day

If so, these symptoms might point to a sleep disorder. Make an appointment to see your doctor. After ruling out other possible medical problems, your physician may suggest an evaluation at our Sleep Study Center. We will review and interpret your sleep study results, helping you and your doctor understand your specific sleep patterns. A follow-up consultation is then scheduled to discuss the sleep study results and recommendations.
If evidence of a sleep disorder is discovered, treatment options are recommended and our respiratory therapists will assist you with your treatment. All Sleep Home Medical Equipment is coordinated through the Respiratory Care department of the hospital.
