Overview
What Is A Sleep Endoscopy?
Sleep endoscopy is a diagnostic procedure used to determine the cause of sleep apnea or snoring. Many individuals with obstructive sleep apnea experience blocked or narrowed airway passages, which can lead to disrupted breathing during sleep. Our expert team in Los Angeles can visually assess and identify these areas of possible obstruction through sleep endoscopy. If you’re searching for the best place to get a sleep endoscopy in Los Angeles, we have two convenient locations to serve you: Santa Monica and Torrance.
What to expect
What to Expect During a Sleep Endoscopy Procedure
During a sleep endoscopy in Los Angeles, patients are sedated, which allows for a more accurate diagnosis of sleep apnea or disruptive snoring. Dr. Daneshrad, known as the best sleep endoscopy doctor in Los Angeles, will insert a small flexible tube with a tiny camera, or an endoscope, into the patient’s nose and will then guide it to view the following areas that may be the cause of obstruction:
- Uvula
- Tonsils
- Behind the palate
- Walls of the throat
- Larynx (voice box)
- Back of the tongue
In some cases, if an obstruction is found, Dr. Daneshrad may treat the airway obstruction during the sleep endoscopy procedure. After reviewing the sleep endoscopy results, Dr. Daneshrad can create an effective treatment plan for the patient’s snoring or sleep apnea.
