The Calgary Sleep & Wake Clinic is proud to announce its pursuit of accreditation for Level 3 sleep apnea testing, a significant milestone in providing advanced diagnostic services for patients in Calgary and the surrounding areas. We are actively pursuing accreditation from the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Alberta (CPSA) to offer Level 3 Apnea Testing to our patients. This accreditation will strengthen our capacity to deliver detailed sleep assessments and uphold high standards of care for individuals dealing with sleep disorders. This accreditation will enhance our ability to offer high-quality, reliable, and accessible sleep apnea testing to those who need it most.
What is Level 3 Sleep Apnea Testing?
Level 3 sleep apnea testing is a modern diagnostic tool designed to make the evaluation of sleep disorders more accessible and convenient. Unlike traditional in-lab polysomnography, this method allows patients to conduct sleep studies from the comfort of their own homes using advanced portable equipment.
This testing measures vital physiological parameters, including breathing patterns, blood oxygen saturation levels, airflow, and heart rate, throughout the night. By monitoring these factors, it can effectively identify the presence and severity of sleep apnea. The data collected is analyzed by healthcare professionals to determine if interruptions in breathing, known as apneas or hypopneas, occur during sleep.
A key benefit of Level 3 testing is its accessibility. Patients no longer need to stay overnight in a sleep lab, making the process less intimidating and more practical, especially for those with busy schedules. Additionally, this form of testing reduces wait times and allows for faster diagnosis, enabling quicker treatment initiation.
At the Sleep & Wake Clinic, we prioritize patient comfort and care. Our Level 3 testing provides an effective and efficient solution for diagnosing sleep apnea without sacrificing quality or accuracy. Whether you’re experiencing symptoms like snoring or daytime fatigue, this advanced testing can help uncover the root cause and guide you toward better sleep health.
