All rise, no shine?
Maybe you just need a good night’s sleep.

If you are one of the millions who snore, sleep poorly, wake up with headaches, are fatigued, have insomnia, wake frequently or remain excessively sleepy throughout the day, you may have a sleep disorder. Lack of sleep can cause poor concentration and poor job performance. In fact, drowsiness causes more than 56,000 car accidents each year alone. And chronic sleep disorders can lead to other physical concerns, such as hypertension, heart attack or stroke.

At Texoma Medical Center, we know that sleeping well can enhance the quality of your life. That’s why we use advanced techniques and have a team of registered specialists to help determine what's preventing you from truly restful slumber.

Our highly trained staff will work with you and your physician to diagnose your sleep problem and help you get the good night's sleep you need. And because we're located nearby, you can get the care you need without having to travel far from home.

We’ll treat you with compassion, warmth, caring and kindness. And you can rely on us to answer your questions. But a good study of your sleeping patterns also requires that you're comfortable. So our study rooms are more like guest or hotel rooms than hospital rooms—complete with big, comfortable beds—to help you feel at home.

Common sleep disorders that require a sleep study for accurate diagnosis include:

• Snoring
• Excessive daytime sleepiness
• Restless leg syndrome
• Periodic limb movement disorder
• Sleepwalking, night terrors, nocturnal eating disorders
• Hypersomnia
• Insomnia
• Narcolepsy
• Sleep Apnea

The Sleep Center at Texoma Medical Center can treat most sleep disorders, including sleep apnea. In many cases, an overnight sleep study is the best way to determine if you have a sleep disorder.

Sleep studies are noninvasive procedures where your sleep and breathing patterns are monitored as you sleep. A specially trained technologist will attach small monitoring devices to your head, arms, legs and torso. As you sleep, data recorders capture information about your breathing, heart rate, brain and muscle activity and oxygen levels to help identify your sleep disorder and help us develop a treatment recommendation.

The most common treatments include eating a healthy diet and exercise, changing sleep patterns and in some cases, surgery. One of the most successful treatments for sleep apnea is called Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP). With this method, a nose mask and CPAP machine deliver a steady stream of oxygen to keep your airway open while you sleep.

After your sleep study, the results will be compiled and forwarded to your physician. We offer a level of technology that provides accurate answers to your sleep problems faster.

We are a results-oriented center, which is why we offer care that is informed, effective and personalized. Regardless of your sleep difficulty, we want you to get the restful, restorative sleep you need.
