REST 3500. Survey of Polysomnography (1) Introdudion to polysomnography as a profession. Course indudes an overview of the polysomnogram, sleep disorders as they affect the general population, typical employment in the field, and employment opportunities. Also includes an introduction to the professional organization of sleep and requirements to become a registered polysomnographic technologist (R.PSG.T). Prerequisites: medical terminology, anatomy, and physiology or completion of entry-level respiratory therapy program or C.R.T., R.RT, or RN. credential. REST 3501. Anatomy and Physiology of Sleep (3) Introduction to the anatomy and physiology of the neurologic, cardiac, and respiratory systems during sleep. Basic anatomy and physiology of wake-sleep cycles are studied, with emphasis on changes that occur during varying stages of sleep and during common sleep disorders. Introduction to the EEG, EOG, EKG, EMG, and other polysomnography data recorders. Prerequisites: medical terminology, anatomy, and physiology or completion of entry-level respiratory therapy program or C.R.T., R.RT, or R.N. credential. REST 3502. Introduction to Sleep Disorders (2) Course provides an overview of the history of sleep medidne, normal sleep physiology, effects of the sleep-wake stage, sleep disorders and abnormal sleep physiology, and an introduction to 295 polysomnography (including patient interation, sensor and lead placements, and instrumentation). Course also introduces the fundamentals of therapeutic interventions utilized to treat sleep disorders. Prerequisites: medical terminology, anatomy, and physiology or completion of entry-level respiratory therapy program or CRT, R.R.T., or R.N. credential. REST 3503. Instrumentation and Computers in Polysomnography (2) Course provides study of equipment, instrumentation, and recording devices utilized in polysomnography. Includes EEG waves, signal pathway and derivation of waves, impedance, sensitivity, time constants, amplifiers, filters, calibration, electrodes, artifacts (both equipment and patient-generated), computer basics, and monitoring devices. Prerequisites: REST 3500 and REST 3502 or medical terminology, human anatomy and human physiology. REST 3504. Laboratory Practice of Instrumentation in Polysomnography (1) Course provides practice and application of operating principles of equipment, instrumentation, and recording devices utilized in polysomnography.

Prerequisites: REST 3501 and REST 3502. REST 3506. Advanced Technical Procedures (3) Course provides detailed description and discussion of specific diagnostic procedures in PSG, induding multiple sleep latency tests, maintenance of wakefulness test, REM behavior disorder studies, MMPI, movement disorders, TCM, nocturnal seizure disorders, esophageal balloon procedures, and others. Prerequisites: REST 3502 and REST 3503. REST 3507. Event Recognition and Polysomnography Scoring (3) Course provides advanced study of sleep stages and recognition of EEG characteristics of each stage. Multi-channel recording of breathing events, leg movements, ocular movements, cardiac and oxygenation monitoring, parasomnias, and interictal and ictal epileptic events are also presented. Course will include review and scoring of 12-hour polysomnography records to determine the overall sleep score. Prerequisites: REST 3501 and REST 3502. REST 3508.
