A Preview of the topics covered in the 30-minute Webinar.

  • What does your sleep physician expect from you, the sleep technologist, during a night of patient care?  Mainly, that you care for the patient, your patient, throughout the night, recording data faithfully and acting as your sleep physician's ears, eyes, and brain while the patient is under your observation. 
  • Data recording is particularly important during CPAP/Bilevel titration when the Fifteen Rule comes into play.  This talk is an overview of the sleep physician's expectations and of the American Academy of Sleep Medicine's standards for titration.
