Sleep Technologist

Healthcare

Sleep Technologists in India set up and monitor overnight polysomnography (PSG) studies, score sleep-stage data, and assist pulmonologists and neurologists in diagnosing sleep-disordered breathing, narcolepsy, periodic limb movement disorder, REM sleep behaviour disorder, and related conditions. The role sits at the intersection of neurophysiology and respiratory diagnostics: a single PSG night produces continuous EEG, EOG, EMG, ECG, pulse oximetry, nasal airflow, chest/abdominal effort, and body-position data that the technologist must monitor in real time and score against AASM guidelines. India's sleep medicine market is growing rapidly — urban obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) prevalence estimated at 7–10% of adults, CPAP therapy penetration under 3%, and a structural shortage of ISSR-certified sleep technicians across the country. Major sleep labs operate at AIIMS New Delhi, NIMHANS Bengaluru, Nithra Institute Chennai, Apollo Sleep Centres, Fortis Pulmonology, Max Healthcare, and private diagnostic chains; smaller standalone sleep clinics in tier-2 cities are the fastest-growing employment segment.
