What is the sleep diagnosis process with Imar?
01.
A thorough consultation is carried out in which the patient describes their symptoms, sleep habits, and medical history. This makes it possible to identify possible sleep disorders and assess the impact on overall health.
02.
Through questionnaires and interviews, the patient's sleep quality, their schedules, and any factor that may be interfering with their rest are analysed.
03.
If necessary, a sleep study is carried out in which various variables are monitored during rest, such as brain activity, heart rhythm, breathing, and body movements, to identify possible disorders.
04.
After analysing the study results, a diagnosis is established and a personalised treatment plan is developed, which may include behavioural therapies and recommendations to improve sleep habits.
How long does the process take and how does it develop?
The sleep diagnosis process at Imar Palma typically lasts between 1 and 2 weeks. It begins with an initial assessment where information about the patient’s sleep habits and symptoms is gathered. If necessary, a sleep study (polysomnography) is carried out, which can take place over one night at the centre or through the use of portable devices at home. After analysing the results, a diagnosis and personalised treatment plan are provided. The process develops progressively, adapting to the patient’s needs, and follow-up is carried out to adjust the treatment according to the evolution of the case.
What medical team will accompany you throughout the process?
During the sleep diagnosis process at Imar Palma, you will be supported by a multidisciplinary team of clinical neurophysiologists, doctors specialising in sleep disorders, and polysomnography technicians. This team will be responsible for carrying out the assessment, administering the necessary tests, and analysing the results to provide a precise diagnosis. Furthermore, psychologists and physiotherapists may be involved in the development of the treatment, providing a comprehensive and personalised approach to improving your sleep quality.
