The Board of Registered Polysomnographic Technologists (BRPT) is a non-profit organization that provides certification for polysomnographic technologists. The BRPT is dedicated to the advancement of the field of sleep medicine and the improvement of patient care through the certification of qualified professionals.

History

The BRPT was established to address the need for standardized certification in the field of polysomnography. Over the years, it has developed rigorous standards and examinations to ensure that certified technologists possess the necessary knowledge and skills to perform their duties effectively.

Certification

The BRPT offers several certification programs, including the Registered Polysomnographic Technologist (RPSGT) credential. The RPSGT certification is recognized internationally and is considered the gold standard in the field of sleep technology. To obtain the RPSGT credential, candidates must pass a comprehensive examination that covers various aspects of sleep disorders, sleep study procedures, and patient care.
