546 Dr. Ezekiel R. Dumke College of Health Professions REST 3501 - Anatomy and Physiology of Sleep Credits: (3) Typically taught: Summer [lst Blk] 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.

REST 3502 - Introduction to Sleep Disorders Credits: (2) Course provides an overview of the history of sleep medicine, normal sleep physiology, effects of the sleep-wake stage, sleep disorders and abnormal sleep physiology, and an introduction to polysomnography (including patient interaction, sensor and lead placements, and instrumentation). Course also introduces the fundamentals of therapeutic interventions utilized to treat sleep disorders. Students taking REST 3502 are required to r a 6-10 page paper outlining the implications for assisted ventilation to sleep disorders. Students taking REST 2505 cannot take REST 3502 for credit. Prerequisite: medical terminology, anatomy, and physiology or completion of respiratory therapy program or CRT., R.R.T., or RN. credential. REST 3503 - Instrumentation and Computers in Polysomnography Credits: (2) Typically taught: Fall [lst Blk] Spring [lst Blk] Summer [lst Blk] 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. Students taking 3503 are required to write a 6-10 page paper outlining specific instrumentation in polysomnography assessing sleep disorders. Students taking REST 2503 cannot take REST 3503 for credit. Prerequisite: REST 2500/REST 3500 and REST 2502/REST 3502 or medical terminology, human anatomy and human physiology. May be repeated twice with a maximum of 6 credit hours. REST 3504 - Laboratory Practice of Instrumentation in Polysomnography Credits: (l) Course provides practice and application of operating principles 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 patientgenerated), computer basics, and monitoring devices. Prerequisite: REST 3502/REST 2502 or medical terminology, human anatomy and human physiology Concurrent enrollment with REST 3503. REST 3505 - Therapeutics of Managing Sleep Apnea Credits: (2) Course provides current therapies and interventions for treatment of sleep apneas. Interventions include positive airway pressure therapy (nocturnal CPAP and bi-level CPAP), surgery, and dental devices. Patient compliance and outcomes of these treatments are included. Students taking REST 3505 are required to write a 6-10 page paper outlining strategies managing sleep apnea. Students taking REST 2505 cannot take REST 3505 for credit. Prerequisite: REST 2501/REST 3501 and REST 2502/REST 3502 or medical terminology, human anatomy and human physiology. May be repeated once for a maximum of 4 credit hours. REST 3506 - Advanced Technical Procedures Credits: (3) Course provides detailed description and discussion of specific diagnostic procedures in PSG, including multiple sleep latency tests, maintenance of wakefulness test, REM behavior disorder studies, MMPI, movement disorders, TCM, nocturnal seizure disorders, esophageal balloon procedures, and others. Prerequisite: REST 3502 and REST 3503. May be repeated once for a maximum of 6 credit hours. REST 3507 - Event Recognition and Polysomnography Scoring Credits: (3) Course provides advanced study of sleep stages and recognition of EEG characteristics of each stage. Multichannel 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. Prerequisite: REST 3501 and REST 3502. REST 3508 - Sleep Center Management Credits: (l) Course is designed to prepare students for sleep center management in hospitals and independent facilities. Course includes sleep laboratory requirements for accreditation, personnel requirements and training, PSG study documentation, technician manuals, quality assurance, policies and procedures, and lab protocols. REST 3500 or credentialed as CRT., R.R.T., or RN. REST 3509 - Cases in Sleep Medicine Credits: (2) Typically taught: Spring [lst Blk] Summer [lst Blk] Course will include physician presentations or case studies of patients with a variety of sleep disorders. Case-based learning is applied in the context of patient presentation and initial interview and diagnostic findings, determination of appropriate sleep medicine studies, interpretation of patient findings, recommendation for patient therapy, and follow- up of patient compliance and outcome(s) of therapeutic intervention. Prerequisite: REST 3502 and REST 3505. May be repeated once for a maximum of 4 credit hours. Weber State University 2015-2016 Catalog
