Active Healthcare Launches IntegraSleep Centers to Help Patients with Dangerous Medical Condition

North Carolina Healthcare Company Develops State-of-the-Art Sleep Labs in Raleigh, Clayton and Smithfield

2010-11-21

RALEIGH, NC, November 21, 2010 (Press-News.org) Active Healthcare, an award-winning industry leader in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) treatment, is marking 20 years of service with the launch of three state-of-the-art IntegraSleep diagnostic centers in Raleigh, Clayton and Smithfield. The fully functional sleep labs provide one-stop-shopping for quality diagnosis and care for this dangerous, often life-threatening condition, utilizing CPAP (Continuous Positive Airway Pressure) systems, the gold standard of sleep apnea treatment.

Headquartered in Raleigh, the IntegraSleep centers were designed by Active Healthcare based on a carefully crafted quality patient care model integrating personalized, extensive follow-up care and maintenance which contributes to the company's 98% customer satisfaction rate.

"We've continued to have great success over the years working hand-in-hand with healthcare providers to diagnose and treat their patient's obstructive sleep apnea," Lisa Feierstein, founder of Active Healthcare said, adding, "Referring physicians and other healthcare professionals send their patients to us because they know we provide a high level of patient training and support."

Strong working relationships and insights garnered from those physicians and healthcare professionals have helped Active Healthcare develop the IntegraSleep diagnostic facilities, which are housed in secure facilities far away from the hustle and bustle of busy medical centers and hospitals with their noisy ambulatory care.

Active Healthcare provides licensed, professional staff at each IntegraSleep center to cater to individual patient needs, maintaining a clean, quiet, safe environment for overnight testing with real-time onsite and monitoring. IntegraSleep patients enjoy comfortable surroundings and immediate access to meaningful education and equipment, in addition to professional follow-up from Active Healthcare sleep specialists working in concert with primary physicians to provide quality care above and beyond industry standards.

Obstructive sleep apnea is marked by episodes of blocked breathing during sleep which, unless closely monitored under laboratory conditions, often goes under-diagnosed and can lead to restless sleep and insomnia, daytime sleepiness, concentration and memory problems, headaches, hyperactivity, personality changes and even depression. According to the Mayo Clinic, anyone can develop OSA.

In addition to providing equipment and guidance for treating OSA, Active Healthcare's one-stop-shop customers service centers in Raleigh, Cary, Clayton, Durham/Chapel Hill, Smithfield, and Wake Forest offer equipment for all respiratory treatment needs.
