Written for sleep technologists, Clinical Atlas of Polysomnography
provides basic information regarding normal sleep, sleep disorders,
and electrophysiology that is outside of the scope of the AASM
manual (AASM Manual for the Scoring of Sleep and Associated
Events). It aims to act as a guide through the fundamental aspects
of, for example, types of overnight sleep study, establishing a
sleep laboratory, preparing the patient for a sleep evaluation
study, placement of electrodes and leads, and the scientific
aspects of such placement, i.e., why they are placed at that
particular position. This information will be very useful in those
parts of the globe where formal training in sleep technology is not
yet available. Many further chapters focus on depicting real-time
illustrations of sleep data as captured in the sleep laboratory and
the scoring of recording data. Information regarding common
montages, artifacts, and troubleshooting in the sleep laboratory
will facilitate the reader's journey as a trainee sleep
technologist. While scoring sleep recordings, the "When you score
the data" histogram can provide a great deal of useful information,
and this has been explained in detail in this book. Most
importantly, it is prudent to be able to write reports that are
both informative and easy to understand by physicians who do not
have advanced knowledge of sleep medicine. A chapter has been
dedicated to explaining this in detail. Lastly, the authors have
provided ready-made forms, questionnaires, and documents that can
either be used as they are or with some modifications. This
up-to-date and comprehensive volume will be an invaluable guide for
technicians and physicians who wish to practice sleep medicine and
will be useful for sleep technology and physician training
programs. The volume is intended to complement, not be a substitute
for, the AASM scoring manual, as many areas that are covered in the
manual are not covered here.
