Introduction[edit | edit source]

Sleep disorders represent a common yet often overlooked aspect of stroke care, significantly impacting an individual's physical and cognitive well-being. In stroke rehabilitation, understanding and addressing sleep disorders are crucial for optimising recovery outcomes. Sleep disorders serve significant functions as both a risk element and a determinant in the recovery and prognosis of stroke.[1]

Prevalence of Sleep Disorders in Stroke[edit | edit source]

Sleep disturbances are highly prevalent among stroke survivors, with studies reporting rates ranging from 40% to 72%.[2][3] Females have a higher risk compared to males, as do those with higher stroke severity. Common sleep disorders observed in this population include insomnia, obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), restless legs syndrome (RLS), and sleep-related movement disorders.[4] The presence of these disorders not only affects sleep quality but also exacerbates stroke-related impairments and complicates the rehabilitation process.

Underlying Mechanism[edit | edit source]

  • Impact on Stroke Pathophysiology: Sleep disorders, particularly OSA, exert detrimental effects on cerebrovascular health, contributing to endothelial dysfunction, inflammation, and oxidative stress—key factors implicated in stroke pathophysiology.[5] Moreover, sleep disturbances disrupt cerebral autoregulation, exacerbate hypoperfusion in ischemic areas, and compromise neuronal repair mechanisms following stroke.[6]
  • Neuroplasticity and Recovery: Adequate sleep is essential for neuroplasticity, the brain's ability to reorganise and form new connections in response to injury. Disrupted sleep architecture and alterations in sleep-wake cycles impede neuroplastic processes, hinder motor learning, and compromise functional recovery in stroke survivors.[7]
