Sleep is an essential biological process during which humans spend nearly one third of their lives. Numerous complex physiological mechanisms occur during sleep, and these may at times be associated with pathological conditions.
Studies indicate that approximately six out of ten individuals experience some form of sleep disturbance. Since the 1950s, sleep has become a major focus of scientific research due to its significant impact on human physiology, circadian rhythms, cognitive performance, and memory.
It has been demonstrated that sleep deprivation and sleep disorders lead to increased daily stress, impaired concentration, and a higher risk of serious accidents—particularly road traffic accidents. They are also associated with sexual dysfunction and, in severe cases, may result in depression and an elevated risk of myocardial infarction and cerebrovascular stroke, in addition to diabetes mellitus, hypertension, and memory impairment.
Obstructive sleep apnea, in particular, is considered a serious disorder that may contribute to the development of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.
Accordingly, the Specialty Hospital has taken a leading role in providing this service to the community by establishing a dedicated laboratory for the diagnosis and treatment of sleep disorders in accordance with the latest international standards and employing state-of-the-art technologies in the field.
The laboratory includes a fully equipped examination suite fitted with advanced monitoring and diagnostic systems. It is furnished to ensure maximum comfort, thereby providing patients with an experience that closely resembles a home environment, in line with research-based recommendations.
In addition, the facility contains a control room equipped with modern display screens and surveillance cameras to monitor and record both normal and abnormal physiological changes occurring during sleep. The laboratory is managed and supervised by a distinguished team of highly qualified scientific and clinical professionals.
The question is: how can a patient determine whether he or she is affected by a sleep disorder? An individual may exhibit one or more of the following symptoms:
Diagnosis typically begins with a consultation at a sleep specialist clinic or with specialists in pulmonology or otolaryngology. This process involves a series of specialized assessments, including:
These assessments are completely non-invasive. Patients stay in a comfortable, private room designed to resemble a home bedroom from 10:00 p.m. until morning. In certain cases, additional studies may be conducted during the morning hours.
The laboratory offers a range of services and evaluations, including:
To undergo the examination, patients should:
