Fragmented and/or disrupted sleep can worsen neuropsychiatric, behavioral, and physical symptoms of TBI. Additionally, sleep disruption impairs recovery and can lead to cognitive decline. The most common sleep disruption following TBI is insomnia, which is difficulty staying asleep.
Identification and treatment of sleep disorders in patients with TBI is important and can complement other efforts to promote maximum functional recovery. The clinical features, evaluation, and treatment of sleep-wake disorders in patients with TBI are discussed here.
In moderate-to-severe injury— for example, those who have pituitary injuries—recovery is typically longer. When sleep symptoms of brain injury last longer than 3 months, the prognosis is more concerning with more long-term issues that need further addressing.
Disturbed sleep is one of the most common complaints following traumatic brain injury (TBI) and worsens morbidity and long-term sequelae. Further, sleep and TBI share neurophysiologic underpinnings with direct relevance to recovery from TBI.
Sleep disturbances are common after traumatic brain injury of all levels of severity, interfere with acute and long-term recovery, and can persist for years after injury. There is increasing evidence of the importance of sleep in improving brain function and recovery.
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is an important cause of death and disability at all ages in the world. Complete functional recovery is not always complete, and, often, persistent symptoms may last for a long time. Sleep disorders and sleep-wake alterations are among...
