Overview

A clear, practical, and bilingual sleep medicine reference for today's healthcare professionals and students. Sleep Medicine is a uniquely communication-heavy specialty, where providers must accurately assess symptoms, explain testing processes, and guide patients through long-term management of sleep disorders. Medical Terminology Guide: Sleep Medicine Edition was created to support nursing students, nurses, medical assistants, physicians, interpreters, and allied health professionals who work with Spanish-speaking patients in sleep clinics, hospitals, and outpatient settings. This guide includes 200+ essential sleep-medicine-specific terms and patient communication phrases presented in a clean, modern, easy-to-read format. Each entry features the English term, its Spanish equivalent, and a simple phonetic pronunciation to help non-Spanish-speaking staff communicate clearly and confidently. Whether you're reviewing concerns like insomnia, excessive daytime sleepiness, snoring, restless legs, parasomnias, or sleep paralysis - or explaining studies and procedures such as polysomnography, CPAP titration, home sleep testing, or sleep hygiene education - this guide keeps the vocabulary you need right at your fingertips. Designed as a practical reference, it supports clearer communication, improved patient understanding, and more confident clinical interactions.
