Sleep disorders are commonly encountered in people living with spinal cord injury (SCI). Primary sleep disorders such as sleep-disordered breathing (SDB), sleep-related movement disorders, circadian rhythm sleep-wake disorders, and insomnia disorder are common conditions after SCI but remain under-recognized, underdiagnosed and therefore remain untreated for a majority of patients. Sleep disturbances in people living with SCI are associated with significant impairments of daytime function and quality of life. Previous reviews have described findings related mainly to SDB but have not examined the relationship between other sleep disorders and SCI. This narrative review examines various sleep abnormalities and related functional and physical impairments in people living with SCI. It discusses new evidence pertaining to management, highlights existing limitations in the literature and recommends future directions for research.
睡眠障碍在脊髓损伤(SCI)患者中很常见。原发性睡眠障碍,如睡眠呼吸紊乱(SDB)、睡眠相关运动障碍、昼夜节律睡眠-觉醒障碍和失眠症,是SCI后的常见病症,但大多数患者仍未得到充分认识、诊断不足,因此仍未得到治疗。SCI患者的睡眠障碍与日间功能和生活质量的显著受损有关。以往的综述主要描述了与SDB相关的研究结果,但未探讨其他睡眠障碍与SCI之间的关系。本叙述性综述探讨了SCI患者的各种睡眠异常以及相关的功能和身体损伤。它讨论了有关管理的新证据,强调了文献中现有的局限性,并推荐了未来的研究方向。
