Description

This is a practical and patient-complaint focused handbook, directed to motivate non-sleep experts and beginners in sleep medicine and technology. This book provides a basic review of the area of sleep, identifies some common patient presentations and illustrates the types of investigations that should be requested.

This text is a valuable "go-to" handbook for the occasional "sleep" practitioner to refer to.

* Contains specially packaged with Specific Learning Objectives to each chapter followed by self-assessment questions, case scenarios, basic sleep monitoring techniques in detail with sample reports.
* Provides direction to health care professionals who encounter patients with sleep and breathing disorders in their practice.
* Uses algorithms and concept maps for dealing with specific symptoms.
