More than 130 million Americans suffer sleep problems. And an estimated 40 million of those are suffering from a sleep disorder. Unfortunately, most of those go undiagnosed and untreated. The Sleep Lab and Neurodiagnostic Center at Lowell General Hospital is a specialized facility providing accurate diagnosis and treatment of sleep-related problems. It can interrupt sleep hundreds of times a night.
Some sleep disorders are potentially fatal.
There are more than 80 known sleeping disorders that can interfere with that vital sleep. Each year sleep-related accidents cause death, injuries, lost productivity and cost billions of dollars in health care and damaged property. There are enough things in life to worry about. Sleep should not be one of them. The Sleep Lab features four private rooms for diagnostic sleep studies.
