Poor sleep quality is associated with greater negative consequences for cognitive control function and psychological health after mild traumatic brain injury than after orthopedic injury.

Conclusions: Our findings show that poor sleep quality has a more negative impact on cognitive control function and psychological outcome in patients with mTBI, compared to trauma controls. This indicates an increased vulnerability to poor sleep quality in patients who have suffered an mTBI. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2021 APA, all rights reserved)
