The Laboratory

Welcome to the NMMC sleep disorders laboratory. During your stay, we will make every effort to maintain your regular sleep routine and make you as comfortable as possible.

Sleep studies are conducted in a homelike environment featuring ceiling fans, remote control TV, technologist call system (in headboard), and CPAP devices (on bedside table). Rooms have an individual temperature control.

The Reception/Interview area accommodates patients and family members. Here the sleep disorders physician also conducts exit interviews with patients following their studies.

The Control Room is the heart of the center, including computer- based digital study acquisition stations, reference manuals, video and audio monitors, Information System computers, telephones and fax machine. Technologists monitor patient activity and record and score the studies from the control room.


   

The Day Lounge is used for patients who have day studies following a night study. The lounge has a telephone, TV and VCR. Its location allows for relaxation away from the general waiting room.
