TREATMENTS
Treatment For Sleep Disorders
No matter what type of sleep disorder you are suffering from, at Sleep Studies Australia, we have a range of treatment options to help you. Treatment for sleep disorders starts at understanding your disorder and what works best for you. Our doctors and sleep scientists are here to provide a thorough diagnosis of your personal needs, followed by some of the best treatment options available. Sleep Studies Australia offers a range of medical, pharmacological and behavioural treatments for Western Australian’s diagnosed with sleep disorders.
CONTINUOUS POSITIVE AIRWAY PRESSURE (CPAP)
Nasal CPAP is the primary and most effective treatment for OSA. The patient wears a mask over the nose during sleep and air is pumped in through the mask into the upper airway. When the air pressure in the throat is increased, the throat does not collapse as the muscles relax, because the pressure acts as a brace or stent and holds it open.
If you'd like to know more about Nasal CPAP, Schedule an appointment with us today.
OBSTRUCTIVE SLEEP APNOEA (OSA) TREATMENT
Our Obstructive Sleep Apnoea treatments are tailored to suit each patient based on medical history, physical examinations and the results of their sleep study. Medications are generally not effective in the treatment of OSA.
Resources
We also provide information on lifestyle changes to help with your treatment program, such as reducing alcohol intake and sleeping pills or ensuring you are at a healthy weight.
MANDIBULAR ADVANCEMENT SPLINTS/ORAL APPLIANCE THERAPY AND SURGERY
Mandibular Advancement Splints (MAS) are a type of dental device (generically termed ‘Oral Appliances’), which are used in patients who snore, or who have mild to moderate sleep OSA. Several surgical procedures are used to increase the size of the airway, though no surgery is completely successful or without risks.
We can provide you with the right medical advice on these types of treatments and which we think will be most effective for you.
