Overview

The Sleep Medicine program offers comprehensive diagnostic testing and treatment services for those who are unable to get a restful night sleep. As an interdisciplinary program, clinicians work closely with a network of specialty providers who are board-certified in bariatric surgery, cardiology, dentistry, neurology, otolaryngology and psychology.

The program holds accreditation by the American Academy of Sleep Medicine (AASM) for 25 consecutive years, demonstrating our commitment to high-quality care for people who have sleep problems. AASM-accredited sleep centers provide diagnostic and therapeutic care for people who have problems related to sleep and alertness. To receive and maintain accreditation for a five-year period, a sleep center must meet or exceed all standards for professional health care as designated by the AASM.

The sleep medicine team includes physicians from the Yale School of Medicine who are internationally recognized for their expertise in the sleep medicine field. These clinicians are board-certified in sleep medicine in addition to internal medicine, pulmonary disease, neurology and pediatrics. Our registered polysomnographic technicians have extensive experience monitoring sleep disorders.

Sleep Apnea Research and Innovations

Sleep Apnea is the interruption of the normal sleep pattern associated with repeated delays in breathing. Sleep apnea often shows rapid improvement after surgery. In most patients, there is a complete resolution of symptoms by six months following surgery.

The clinicians at the Sleep Medicine Center are at the forefront of research on cardiovascular and stroke complications of sleep apnea; and the ways of reducing the risk of these conditions. Our physicians were the first to demonstrate that sleep apnea causes stroke and diabetes; and how appropriate treatment can lower the risk.
