We provide professional support in Sleep Laboratory.
Sleep disorders arising from different reasons may lead
to complaints both at nighttime and daytime as well as various health problems.
Several signs of sleep disorders, such as snoring, shortness of breath during
sleep, vigilance, are considered “normal” in the society. Sleep disorders are
very important in terms of individual and social endpoints. Therefore, such
disorders must not be ignored.
The person who is suspected to have a sleep disorder
based on his/her complaints spends a night at the Sleep Laboratory. However,
this room seems like a comfortable hotel room rather than a laboratory. It is
essential that the person falls asleep with confidence. Minimum 6 hours of
sleep is recorded at the laboratory. Before starting sleep analysis, our
patient is prepared for the recording via a procedure that lasts 40 minutes. To
this end, we use electrodes placed on the patient’s head to record brain waves,
devices attached to the nose to record breathing and snoring, and cardiac
electrodes to monitor heart rate, leg and chin electrodes to monitor muscle
activation. We monitor respiratory motions with special belts attached to the
chest and abdomen, and blood oxygen and pulse with a small device attached to
the finger. The patient’s sleep is recorded with all these parameters under
video monitoring. All electrodes and strips attached to the patient do not
prevent the patient from moving.
In order for our patients to adapt to the environment and
devices, we recommend them to spend some time in the polysomnography room
before recording. When our patient feels sleepy, our polysomnography technician
turns off the lights, and in another room, he/she instantly monitors sleep
recordings transferred to the computer. When necessary, or when the patient
presses the call button, he/she is by the patient’s side. All night long,
respiratory events, leg and chin EMG, heart rhythm, blood oxygen level and
pulse, eye movements, abdominal and thoracic effort, whether snoring occurred
or not, sleep phases, lying positions of the patient are recorded
simultaneously. Our patient may resume his daily activities the next day.
An institution that fueled dozens of worthwhile projects in Turkey, Anadolu Foundation made another dream real by founding Anadolu Medical Center.
Relying on the valuable heritage of Anatolia that boasts of thousands of years of medical knowledge and was home to many valuable people of medicine, our hospital uses this knowledge to contribute to human health.
Working in strategic cooperation with Johns Hopkins Medicine for the improvement of education and quality, our hospital provides services in all branches including in particular, oncologic sciences, cardiovascular health, gynecology and IVF, neurological sciences, surgical sciences, internal medicine, diagnosis and imaging.
Established on an area of 188.000 square meters and an indoor area of 50 thousand square meters with a capacity of 201 beds, our hospital provides services with JCI (Joint Commission International) accreditation, ESMO (European Society for Medical Oncology), ISO (18001, 14001 and 9001) certifications.
Anadolu Medical Center continues to provide healthcare services also at Ataşehir with its Outpatient Clinic. Procedural archives of patients who receive services at the Outpatient Clinic are kept in the virtual environment.
Having started to render service in June 2010 within the structure of the hospital, the Bone Marrow Transplantation Center performs bone marrow transplants for 22 patients at the same time. Our patients are always the number one priority at our hospital. For this reason, we give value to the needs and expectations of our patients, and make every effort to ensure that they have a peaceful treatment process and feel at home.
