Commonwealth Medical Group’s total Lifestyles
approach focuses on keeping our patients healthy
by addressing all aspects of life that affect good
health. Therefore, providing the services of a Sleep
Lab to study how our patients sleep may be affecting
their health and well being makes perfect sense.
Our staff is qualified to conduct a variety of sleep
and breathing related tests.

Sleep Apnea Studies (polysomnography)
Pulmonary Function Testing
A sleep study is a non-invasive, painless test. Patients
come to the Center in the early evening or during their
regular sleep cycle. Several monitors (electrodes) are
placed at various parts around the body. Those
monitors gather data for up to 16 parameters of sleep
including: brain waves, muscle movement, eye
movements, heart rhythms, oxygen levels, snoring and
breathing patterns. The data collected from these
monitors are used to help determine a diagnosis and
finally a treatment plan, all without pain.
The Center offers two beautiful private bedroom
suites complete with their own private
bath and shower, TV/VCR combo and phone.
A full size bed is used rather than a hospital bed
for space and comfort.
