A somnologist is a doctor who specializes in the diagnosis and treatment of sleep disorders.
At SQ Clinic, we work with the most common and dangerous disorders:
• Obstructive sleep apnea (repeated stops of breathing at night)
• Chronic insomnia
• Restless legs syndrome
• Circadian rhythm disorders
• Daytime sleepiness of unknown origin
To screen for sleep-related breathing disorders, we use the international STOP-BANG scale, which allows us to quickly identify risks:
Sign | Question |
S — Snoring | Do you snore louder than normal speech or can you hear it outside the door? |
T — Fatigue | Do you have daytime sleepiness, tiredness, fatigue? |
O — Respiratory arrest | Have you ever experienced respiratory arrest in your sleep? |
P — Pressure | Is there an increased blood pressure or taking medications for it? |
B — Overweight | A BMI of more than 35 kg/m2? |
A — Age | Are you over 50 years old? |
N — Neck volume | Is the neck circumference more than 40 cm for men or 37 cm for women? |
G — Gender | Are you a man? |
If the answer to most of the questions is "yes", this is a serious reason to undergo respiratory screening.
If you notice at least some of the described symptoms, make an appointment for an initial appointment with a somnologist at the SQ Clinic. Your energy, mental clarity, and health may depend on one correct diagnosis.
