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.

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
- fall asleep while driving...
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.

Dr. Charles Jones, Consulting Internal Medicine Specialist, has extensive knowledge of sleep and related disorders.
He 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. |
