A Technologist's Guide to Performing Sleep Studies
This 132-page guide is intended to provide step-by-step instructions for collecting sleep study data from patients, and includes suggestions for putting the patient at ease.

The Sleep Technologist Toolbox 
This 136-page workbook is a companion piece to A Technologist's Guide to Performing Sleep Studies and includes study questions and activities to improve retention and one’s understanding of the material.

Topics included in preview on next tab. Workbooks are not intended as a scoring manual and should be used in addition to other forms of learning also consistent with the AASM Manual for the Classification of Sleep and Associated Events.

A Technologist's Guide to Performing Sleep Studies includes:

1. Reviewing the Patient Chart
2. Welcoming the Patient to the Sleep Center
3. Preparing the Patient for Electrode Application and Applying the Electrodes
4. Testing Electrode Application
5. Documentation and Maintaining Recording Quality
6. Sleep Center Emergencies and Interventions
7. Ending the Sleep Study

Sleep Technologist's Toolbox includes the following sections and incorporates study questions/activities to improve retention and understanding of the material in the first guidebook:

1. Reviewing the Patient Chart Cont.
2. Patient Education
3. Equipment and Montage
4. Sensor and Equipment Calibration
5. Documentation and Recording Quality
6. Emergencies and Interventions
7. Interventions other than CPAP
8. Ending the Study
9. Scoring and Data Analysis
