Our Services
VitalCare Sleep Center in Prince George offers comprehensive and high-quality sleep medicine for both children and adults as well as in lab sleep studies. Sleep medicine is a medical subspecialty focused on diagnosing and treating sleep disorders and other sleep-related concerns. Sleep disorders are common and, if left untreated, can have significant long-term consequences, such as the increased risk of heart disease, stroke, type 2 diabetes, and obesity.
Our team will get to know you and your unique medical needs so that we can recommend the right treatment option for you.
What are Sleep Disorders?
Sleep disorders involve problems with the quality, timing and amount of sleep, which result in daytime distress and impairment in functioning. They often occur along with medical conditions or other mental health conditions, such as depression, anxiety, or cognitive disorders. Although there are several different types, insomnia is the most common. Other sleep disorders include:
- Central sleep apnea
- Circadian sleep disorders
- Hypersomnia
- Narcolepsy
- Nighttime leg cramps
- Nightmare disorder
- Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA)
- Parasomnias
- REM sleep behavior disorder
- Restless legs syndrome
- Sleep terrors (“night terrors”)
- Sleepwalking (somnambulism)
- Snoring
How do we Treat Sleep Disorders?
VitalCare Family Practice’s sleep lab in Prince George, VA conducts in-lab sleep studies, or polysomnographs, to diagnose a variety of sleep disorders. In some cases, an at-home sleep test will suffice. These tests will measure factors like nasal and oral airflow, respiratory effort, and oxygen levels.
After a diagnosis is made, our sleep specialists may recommend one of these sleep-disorder treatments:
- Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP)
- Medications
- Better sleep hygiene habits and behaviors.
