Our team of highly trained specialists handles cases where other sleep centers have failed, treating sleep apnea, narcolepsy, restless legs syndrome, insomnia, fibromyalgia, ADHD, headaches, TMJ dysfunction, seizures, abnormal behaviors during sleep, snoring, chronic fatigue, and more.
Testing can be as easy as sleeping at home or for more elaborate conditions, highly sophisticated in-lab testing is provided.
Before traveling with your therapy equipment, you should:
- At least two weeks before traveling, get clearance from the airline to use your device on a flight (if your approval is in the form of a letter, carry a copy with you).
- Arrange to sit near a power source on the aircraft.
- Confirm the type of power cord or adapter used by the aircraft
- Carry a letter from your doctor certifying your need for positive airway pressure therapy.
- Take a copy of the device statement of the FAA compliance letter for home sleep testing devices
- Pack the correct adapter for the country you’re traveling to because power outlets differ in each country. Adaptors can be bought from most electronics and travel stores, as well as in airports.
- Ensure that there is no water in the humidifier tub before detaching it from the device and packing it away.
- Remember, you can use your device on the plane, but not your humidifier, as aircraft turbulence increases the risk of water spillage and damage to the device.
- On arrival at your destination, don’t forget to use distilled or deionized water to fill your humidifier tub.
- Your Hotel room may not have a power socket located near the bed head, so pack an extension cord to use your device and mask, comfortably.
The following information should always be within reach:
- Your treatment pressure
- Your mask type and size
- Contact details for your equipment supplier and care provider
- Your health insurance information
- Your doctor’s details
