This slide set is intended to introduce new technicians to the new rules for scoring sleep stages and as an aid in the transition to the new rules for experienced technologists. Drawing from the AASM Manual for the Scoring of Sleep and Associated Events, it provides clear examples of waveforms and stage scoring rules. The text includes tips for improving scoring efficiency and generating reports. The final slides challenge the user to identify waveforms and stage epochs as a test of comprehension.
