ProMedica Russell J. Ebeid Children’s Hospital has opened a pediatric sleep center in Toledo that will provide specialized sleep medicine services for children and adolescents closer to home
The facility is the first pediatric-specific sleep center in northwest Ohio, according to a community announcement. The center is designed to diagnose and evaluate sleep disorders in children through overnight sleep studies conducted in a child-friendly setting
During sleep studies, credentialed professionals monitor multiple body systems, including brain activity, heart function and breathing patterns. The information gathered helps physicians evaluate a child’s sleep health and identify potential disorders
The center includes private rooms intended to reduce disruptions and help children sleep as naturally as possible while being monitored
Sleep disorders can affect health and daily life
Pediatric sleep disorders can influence physical health, emotional well-being, academic performance and quality of life. The new center will evaluate and diagnose conditions including obstructive sleep apnea, insomnia, parasomnias, circadian rhythm disorders, excessive daytime sleepiness and restless leg syndrome, according to the announcement
“Research shows that sleep plays a critical role in a child’s growth, development and overall well-being,” Paula Grieb, chief operating officer, ProMedica Ebeid Children’s Hospital, said in the announcement. “By opening the first pediatric-specific sleep center in northwest Ohio, we are making it easier for families to access specialized care and receive answers about pediatric sleep-related concerns.”
Families seeking appointments at the pediatric sleep center can call 419-690-8626
