Abstract:
Sleep and adaptation disorders are common in traumatic brain injury (TBI)
resulting from blast injuries (BIs) and can significantly complicate the recovery,
leading to delayed neurocognitive, psychiatric and behavioural disorders.1 2
Nevertheless, auditory disorders and tinnitus after repeated TBIs significantly
worsen and affect daily activity through impaired sleep quality, irritability,
anxiety and difficulties with concentration.3–5 We conducted this study to
analyse the characteristics of sleep and adaptation disorders in military
personnel with BIs.
