Sleep Laboratory

West Park Healthcare Centre is home to the only Sleep Laboratory in the Greater Toronto Area that provides diagnostic testing for ventilator dependent individuals and those with complex medical conditions.

The Sleep Laboratory is part of West Park's comprehensive Cardio-Respiratory Diagnostic and Evaluation Service, which also includes exercise and pulmonary function labs.

West Park's Sleep Laboratory specializes in studies on people with respiratory, cardiovascular or neurological conditions and receives referrals from across Ontario. The Sleep Laboratory builds on West Park's expertise in providing the quality and innovative respiratory care that has been at the core of its services since the centre was founded in 1904.

Some interesting facts:

Studies show that people with sleeping difficulties may actually suffer breathing interruptions during sleep, robbing the body of the oxygen required to sustain healthy lung, heart and brain activity.
About one in four Canadians suffer from significant sleep problems that undermine their ability to function at home or in the workplace.

West Park's Sleep Laboratory was expanded in October 2001 with the support of the Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care and West Park Healthcare Centre Foundation.
