Software Solutions for Sleep Doctors

Diagnosing and helping sleep deprived patients is one thing but what happens if the number of patients suddenly start to swell? Apparently the patient record management will bear the brunt of this as maintaining patient records is as valuable as paying for sleep cures these days.
Thanks to Sagittarius Software, sleep doctors will be spared from the burden of perhaps failing to monitor their patients as well as their progress to treatment. To some, it may not be a big help but if you look forward and take into consideration that sleep deprived individuals are growing heftily by the minute, then perhaps the investment is something that deserves a second choice.
Besides, sleep specialists may be the victim of their own decision to forego this assistance as well. And for sure, no professional sleep doctor would want that.
Cox estimates that only about 13 percent of health-care providers who are sole practitioners have an electronic records-management system; the rest still rely on a paper-based process. Not only are these systems subject to inaccuracies and imprecision, he said, but a previous patient who returns after a few years will have no history.
“After a few years, old paper records are put into long-tern storage, which is impossible to retrieve,” Cox said. “So you’re lucky if they can find an old chart at all.”

Snore Guards for Better and Safer Sleep
0 Comments Published by Brian Yalung June 5th, 2008 in How to sleep better, SLEEP Gadgets, SLEEP News, Sleep Apnea, Snoring.
While you are sleeping, the most embarrassing thought is to be told that you snore while you are in slumber. People including your partner can tell you that and for sure this will get you red in the face. To some, it may not seem obvious but you just never know when you sleep.
When you snore in your sleep, it means that there is something wrong. Your normal breathing periods are being obstructed and chances are your health is the one in danger. So the next time you are told that you do snore, rather than get embarrassed try to see a specialist. It could lead to something very serious than being humiliated.
Snoring mysteriously tends to increase in post-menopausal women, perhaps due to weight gain, Dort says. However, because it often goes hand in hand with sleep apnea, it’s important to see a doctor.
“There are heart consequences related to sleep apnea, including hypertension and diabetes,” she says.
Snoring has more to do with placement of the tongue than with the soft palate and even though men and women have similar physiology, women respond better to snoring appliances than men.
“Up to 55 per cent of women respond to tongue retainers, which are not yet available over the counter,” says Dort, who offers the device, which resembles a baby soother, for $99.
