Overview

Today more than ever, sleep specialists can take advantage of innovative telemedicine technologies for optimal treatment of sleep disorders. In recent years, the American Academy of Sleep Medicine (AASM) has been committed to advancing the adoption of telemedicine in order to improve access to high-quality, patient-centered care. Principles and Practice of Sleep Telemedicine is the first reference of its kind to provide direction to sleep physicians on using telemedicine in clinical practice. In a single convenient volume, this new resource serves as a step-by-step guide for practitioners to effectively treat and diagnose their patients in this contemporary clinical setting. Presents the knowledge and expertise of Dr. Christine Won, who has served in the AASM’s development of updated telemedicine guidelines, and renowned author and sleep medicine expert Dr. Meir Kryger. Covers the telemedicine topics that sleep medicine practitioners most want to know-not only clinical topics on virtual interaction with patients, but also logistical, technical, and administrative details. Includes resources for setting up a telemedicine service, information on legal and regulatory issues, and insight on how COVID-19 has changed the telemedicine landscape. Contains pearls and advice on common pitfalls practitioners are likely to encounter when administering virtual patient care, provided by pioneers in the field of telemedicine. An eBook version is included with purchase. The eBook allows you to access all of the text, figures, and references, with the ability to search, customize your content, make notes and highlights, and have content read aloud. Additional digital ancillary content may publish up to 6 weeks following the publication date.
