Outpatient respiratory polygraphy
Polygraphy registers the cardio-respiratory variable during sleep, nasal drainage, thoracic and abdominal movement, oxygen saturation, snoring, and position.
Depending on the pathology or the medical decision, the procedure can be outpatient (at the patient’s home).
This is advantageous, since the patient can be at his/her natural habitat, using their own bed and routines. The different sensors don’t bother at all and allow a natural rest.
The medical team studies the results and emits a diagnostic.
PAP (positive air pressure) adaptation workshop
PAP treatment will alleviate the respiratory tracts that are obstructed and that cause snoring and apneas during sleep. PAP treatment can dramatically improve the life of someone diagnosed with sleep apnea. Nonetheless, treatment will not work if not used.
