Maintenance of Wakefulness Test

There are more than 80 types of sleep disorders, including sleep apnea, insomnia and restless legs syndrome. We understand that these conditions can significantly affect healthy sleep–and this, in turn, impacts your overall health, safety and quality of life. Getting good rest is essential to having a normal, productive life. Sleeping disorders can affect you at any age and can seriously interfere with your body’s necessary restorative cycles. Fannin Regional Hospital’s sleep study program monitors patients’ sleeping patterns to find out why you may be having problems. Your doctor may suggest this treatment if you experience long-term sleeplessness or other recurring problems. At our sleep lab, we conduct thorough sleep studies in a comfortable, home-like setting with modern diagnostic equipment. Trained clinical professionals monitor you while you sleep, checking your breathing patterns and brainwave activity. After the study, your physician will receive a detailed report that will help with the diagnoses and finding the best treatment plan.
