Preface
D uring the 8 years since the previous edition of Fundamentals of Sleep Technology , there have been not only remarkable advances in the science and profession of sleep technologyautomation, portable testing, advanced positive airway pressure technologies, and telemedicine, to name a few, but also many vexing challenges. In many areas, sleep testing and treatments are still unavailable or unaffordable, adequate numbers of sleep health professionals lacking, and patients with sleep-related illnesses remain undiagnosed or untreated. Although opportunities for sleep technologists are expanding in education, research, industry, business, and government, many practitioners are increasingly anxious about their career longevity and professional advancement. In some countries, sleep technology has established curricula, certification, professional societies, and educational conferences; yet in others, none of these exist. Regardless of location around the globe, the sleep technologist has a profound responsibility to serve as an example of a healthy lifestyle, use health resources responsibly, reduce health inequalities, increase access to and support sustainable health programs, and promote cultural sensitivity in our health systems. Let us continue to work toward these positive changes.
