Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The PSG page, or screen, is called a montage. A typical montage includes a minimum of 17 channels of information, or tracings, similar to an ECG tracing (see Figure 19-5). In fact, the ECG channel is always monitored during a PSG study, along with four channels that reflect the EEG tracings to identify NREM or REM sleep stages, two channels that document right and left eye movement, one channel that monitors chin movement, two channels that record right and left leg movement, and seven additional channels that record snoring, air flow, thoracic and abdominal movement, SpO₂, heart rate, and body position (see Figure 19-6).
