The Center for Pediatric Sleep Disorders at Greenville Hospital System’s Children’s Hospital offers patients and their families the opportunity for sleep evaluation and treatment. A multidisciplinary team of specialists work together with each patient, their family and primary care physician to determine a treatment plan that is customized to meet their specific needs. The Greenville Hospital System Center for Pediatric Sleep Disorders was created in 2006 to provide consultation and therapeutic management for the wide variety of sleep disorders that can affect children. A comprehensive approach to sleep medicine is maintained with focus on the behavioral, developmental, neurological and pulmonary issues that result in pediatric sleep disorders. At the Children’s Hospital, our pediatric sleep services are designed to meet the unique needs of each individual child. With a 2-bed dedicated pediatric sleep laboratory, it is the first of its kind in South Carolina managed by an American board-certified pediatric sleep medicine specialist. Our team of pediatric-trained specialists works closely with the child's primary physician to ensure appropriate evaluation and treatment. Our testing facility is designed specifically for children with state-of-the-art technology and allows for a wider variety of measurements that are typical in adult labs. Our facilities and equipment are scaled and designed for children to provide the "gold standard" in pediatric sleep disorder evaluation. In addition, a comfortable, non-threatening atmosphere helps to encourage natural sleep. Technicians continuously monitor each child - providing immediate physical and emotional bedside support. |
