Sleep Lab

Sleep is a crucial element in maintaining the healthy function of the human body. When we are unable to get enough sleep regularly it significantly impairs our ability to function throughout the day.

Comfortable Experience

Mena Regional Health System Sleep Lab utilizes Registered Polysomnographic Technologist (RPSGT) to administer sleep testing along with a board certified physician who reads and interprets the results. Our Sleep Lab is equipped with a cozy, home-like room that features two beds, providing patients with a comfortable experience. After your testing, results are sent to your Primary Care Provider to analyze and make recommendations based on testing.

Also housed in the Sleep Lab are Pulmonary Function Tests (PFT). PFTs are noninvasive tests that show how well the lungs are working. The test measures lung volume, capacity, rates of flow, and gas exchange. This information can help your healthcare provider diagnose and decide the treatment of certain lung disorders.

Services offered during PFT Testing include:

Spirometry

ABG's

Lung volume

Methacholine Challenge

Diffusion
