We take care of your sleep

When you suffer from sleep disorders, you are affected by the disturbed sleep in your daily life, for example in the form of chronic fatigue. The disturbance manifests itself as difficulty falling asleep, difficulty sleeping through the night or waking up too early.

At Capio Private Hospital, we offer fast access to a thorough assessment for sleep apnea, which is caused by the patient's airways closing during sleep. The assessment is based on a preliminary examination and will often include sleep monitoring with advanced equipment.

There are good treatment options

The most common sleep disorders can now be diagnosed and treated easier and better than just 15-20 years ago. For example, treatment for sleep apnea can be initiated immediately and at no cost to the patient. This enables us to offer you an effective and safe treatment for your sleep apnea.

Patient information

Information about sleep disorders

Sleep apnea

Obstructive sleep apnea presents as repeated attacks of suffocation during sleep. People with undiagnosed sleep apnea often think they don't have a sleep problem because they can sleep anytime, anywhere. The repeated closures trigger alarms in the body that disrupt their sleep, but also save their lives.

Symptoms during sleep include irregular snoring with interruptions of up to 30-40 seconds or longer, restless movements, sweating, possible awakenings with palpitations and shortness of breath. It also causes problems during the daytime with symptoms such as morning headaches, fatigue, depression, increased irritability and decreased sex drive.

The diagnosis of sleep apnea can be made after a one-night outpatient examination called a Cardio Respiratory Monitoring (CRM), where you sleep at home with recording equipment. The next day, the recording is analyzed and CPAP treatment is started immediately afterwards.

CPAP therapy consists of a small air pump that blows regular air through a mask into the nose and airways. The airflow creates a small positive pressure that keeps the throat open and the airway clear. When normal breathing is created, the patient will also achieve normal sleep quality, which will have a large and positive effect on the patient's well-being and energy in everyday life.

Back surgery at Capio

I had lower back surgery at Capio Hellerup over a year ago. I have been incredibly happy with the treatment I received during my hospitalization by both doctors and nurses and the follow-ups they gave me. Huge praise from here.

Hip replacement surgery

I had surgery on Wednesday, December 13th at Capio Aalborg and despite the circumstances, I had a good stay where I got answers to all my questions. I met a staff with great competence and empathy, so I can only give my best recommendations.
Thank you very much for everything.
