Sleep Lab
Take Our Sleep Quiz
Individuals looking for restful sleep are turning to Saint John’s expanded Sleep Lab located on the Medical Center’s Four South.
Saint John’s Sleep Lab features state-of-the-art computerized monitoring equipment. A series of wires is connected to various parts of the patient’s body to monitor functions such as brain waves, muscle tone, eye movement, heart activity and airflow.
The recording equipment is located in an adjoining room, where the staff can monitor the patient and make notations without disturbing the sleeper. A closed-circuit video camera allows the technologists to monitor the patients as needed and, if requested by the physician, to videotape the sleep session to document such conditions as night terror.
If you need a sleep specialist, please see pulmonologist or neurologist under the Medical Professionals section or call 765-683-3156 for assistance.
