Sleep Study InquiriesThis is for those who wish to be screened for possible sleep disordered breathing, but do not want a consultation and treatment. Any treatment and further investigation, if required, would be arranged by your Family Doctor.
The polysomnography test has the same quality and available information of a study that is done in the traditional overnight sleep in a laboratory, except there is no video camera and you are responsible for making sure the equipment stays on the patient.\ The study is done at home. For some patients this is more convenient, cost efficient and the only way the patient would allow the test. It also avoids the in lab artifact of sleeping in a different place. The wait time for a Home Sleep study is 1-2 weeks and the results are available with-in 1-week. In lab testing for both children and adults currently has a wait time of greater than 1- year. We would review the results with yourself and answer your questions. You will get a copy of the study for your Family Doctor, should you wish. The cost is $400.00 and can be paid by a credit card or cash (no cheques). If your FMD wishes to refer, for further treatment then we would expedite that referral. Call 519-433- 2242 to arrange |
