What is an RRT SDS?

RRT SDS stands for Registered Respiratory Therapist, Sleep Disorders Specialist. These professionals are licensed respiratory therapists who have earned additional certification in sleep disorders, allowing them to diagnose and treat patients with sleep-related breathing problems like sleep apnea.

Familiarity with polysomnography equipment, CPAP/BiPAP devices, and relevant medical software is crucial. Strong analytical skills, attention to detail, and effective communication help RRT-SDS professionals interpret sleep studies and educate patients.
