Penn State Sleep Research and Treatment Center |
|
With collaboration between Penn State Milton S. Hershey Medical Center and Penn State College of Medicine departments of Psychiatry and Medicine, the 12-bed Sleep Center helps children and adults who are affected by nighttime problems such as insomnia, sleep apnea, narcolepsy, hypersomnia, night terrors, sleep walking and bed wetting. In routine sleep studies, various body systems are monitored while patients sleep. The Sleep Center makes recommendations to the patients' physicians for specific treatment. In addition to its contributions to scientific research aimed to better understand the mechanisms of sleep disorders, this center also serves as an educational resource for those in the medical profession and community at large.
