Lindenhurst,
Ill., 1/16/07--Good
sleep shouldn’t be something you only
dream about. You need it to stay healthy in
body and mind. When you don’t get enough
sleep, your whole life is affected. Being
tired can cause accidents, injuries, personality
changes and irritability. If you feel you
aren’t getting enough sleep you may be
suffering from a sleep disorder. Vista Health
Sleep Disorder Center is now located at Vista
Surgery Center, 1050 Red Oak Lane in Lindenhurst
and Vista Medical Center East, 1324 North
Sheridan Road, Waukegan, Illinois.
Sleep
disorders affect millions of Americans. To
help understand treatment options, Vista Health
will be offering a free seminar on Insomnia,
Tuesday, January 23, at 6:30 p.m. at Vista
Surgery Center, 1050 Red Oak Lane, Lindenhurst,
IL.
Vista
Health Sleep Disorder Center performs sleep
studies (polysomnography) to aid in the identification
and treatment of sleep apnea and other sleep
disorders. During the study, you stay overnight
in a comfortable room. A technician attaches
sensors to you and then monitors you from
another room with state-of-the-art equipment.
By doing this they can record your sleep and
reactions including brain waves, eye movement,
breathing, heart rate, muscle activity and
oxygen level. If sleep apnea is identified
in the first two to three hours of the study,
appropriate treatment will be initiated.
If
you feel you have a sleep disorder or want
to learn more, register for the seminar at
847-360-4246. For a sleep study, contact your
doctor for a referral and schedule your study
