St. Catherine of Siena Medical
Center Proudly Supports National Sleep Awareness Week®
- March 3rd- March 7th
Sleep accounts for one third of our lives. Therefore, good
sleep is critical to living a healthy productive life-span.
However, many Americans do not get the proper duration of
sleep correlating to their biological needs, resulting in
negative consequences on relationships, health and safety,
and productivity at work. In fact, many Americans do not get
the appropriate amount of sleep due unknown disorders related
to sleep.
If you snore, gasp, wheeze, choke or cough while sleeping,
wake up irritable and gasping for air, or suffer from excessive
daytime sleepiness, you may have a sleeping disorder. Each
year over 10 million Americans seek medical help for sleep-related
disorders. Primary sleep disorders include Sleep Apnea, Insomnia,
Narcolepsy, and Periodic Limb Movements. Effective treatment
is available for most individuals diagnosed and the good news
is, St. Catherine’s Sleeping Disorders Center can help
you.
St. Catherine of Siena Medical Center is proud to offer sleep
diagnostic services to the community at our Sleep Disorders
Center. The Sleep Disorders Center provides comprehensive,
individualized evaluation and testing for the diagnosis and
treatment of clinical disorders related to sleep. Sleep is
pertinent to a healthy life, just as air and water. If you
are suffering from any of the symptoms listed, contact St.
Catherine’s Sleep Disorders Center today at 631.870.3444.
