I welcome you all in the Polysomnography Course and Workshop. 

Sleep Medicine has faced many obstacles in Saudi Arabia and neighbouring countries.

In my view, the major obstacle is the lack of trained sleep technologists who can perform and score sleep studies. This course is “a dream came true” for sleep medicine specialists and technologists in the region.  We have been planning for the first course for over a year.  Clear objectives for each lecture and skill station have been put before developing the course.  A team of doctors, technicians and supporting staff have worked hard and relentlessly to bring this course to light.  To all of them, I say thank you.

I hope that you find this course useful and look forward to hearing your comments that will improve our performance to achieve our targets.

I wish you all every success in life.

│Prof. Ahmed S. BaHammam
