Sleep Center verses Sleep
Laboratory The
American Academy of Sleep Medicine (AASM) recognizes a very definitive
distinction between a sleep laboratory and accredited Sleep Disorders Centers , such as
MetroHealth Medical Center Sleep Disorders Center.
What is the
difference? By the AASM’s definition,
“An accredited sleep disorders center is a comprehensive or full-service sleep
disorders program that must be prepared to provide adequate evaluation of patients with
a variety of sleep disorders T he AASM accredits two different types
of sleep disorders facilities; sleep disorders centers and laboratories
for sleep-related breathing disorders. A Sleep Disorders Center is a medical facility providing clinical
diagnostic services and treatment for patients who present with symptoms or
features that suggest the presence of any sleep disorder. In contrast, a
laboratory for sleep-related breathing disorders provides diagnostic and
treatment services limited to sleep-related breathing disorders, such as
Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome.” To summarize, Obstructive Sleep Apnea
is not the only sleep disorder. Allow us to diagnose and, if needed, treat
your sleep disorder.
