  • Oximetry: If you are suspected of having a sleep disorder, your medical provider may recommend that you undergo overnight oximetry, a commonly used screening test. Overnight oximetry is a simple test that can easily be done at home. It provides basic information that may be useful in initially evaluating whether you have one of the more common sleep disorders, sleep apnea.
  • Aerosol treatments: Aerosol therapy is used to deliver medication in a mist form to breathe in. Aerosol therapy consists of a compressor which generates a controlled air flow to the nebulizer cup and the medication mist is then inhaled through a mouthpiece or mask.
  • Pulmonary Function: Pulmonary function tests are a group of tests that measure how well the lungs take in and release air and how well they move gases such as oxygen from the atmosphere into the body's circulation.
