A medical reference text for sleep specialists, trainees, and technologists, authored by James D. Geyer, Paul R. Carney, and Troy A. Payne. This comprehensive atlas provides detailed visual examples and technical specifications for conducting and interpreting polysomnography (PSG), the primary laboratory test for sleep disorders. The material covers normal sleep staging (wakefulness, N1, N2, N3, and R stages), various sleep-related disorders such as breathing disorders, limb movements, and parasomnias, and the recognition of electroencephalographic abnormalities and artifacts. Furthermore, the text addresses the technical background of PSG equipment, including electrode placement, amplifier settings, and protocols for specialized tests like the Multiple Sleep Latency Test (MSLT) and the Maintenance of Wakefulness Test (MWT).
