在创伤性脑损伤(TBI)后，持续的注意力被证明是脆弱的。睡眠限制和干扰已被证明会对持续的注意力产生负面影响。睡眠障碍很常见，但在颅脑损伤后被低估了。因此，睡眠障碍似乎可能会加剧一部分患有脑损伤的人的神经心理缺陷。这项前瞻性研究的目的是检验脑外伤后睡眠不良者的持续注意功能和一般注意力功能是否比脑损伤后睡眠良好者差。采用主观性、前瞻性主观性和客观性三种方法对受试者的睡眠进行评估。结果表明，睡眠质量差的儿童持续注意能力显著低于睡眠质量好的儿童。在其他注意力指标上的差异并不显著。这项研究支持使用捕捉特定注意力成分的措施，而不是全局注意力衡量标准，并强调了评估和治疗睡眠问题在脑损伤康复中的重要性。(JINS，2010，16，17-25。)
Sustained attention has been shown to be vulnerable following traumatic brain injury (TBI). Sleep restriction and disturbances have been shown to negatively affect Sustained attention. Sleep disorders are common but Under-diagnosed after TBI. Thus, it seems possible that Sleep disturbances may exacerbate neuropsychological deficits for a proportion of individuals who have Sustained a TBI. The aim of this prospective Study Was to examine whether poor sleepers post-TBI had poorer sustained and general attentional functioning than good sleepers post-TBI. Retrospective Subjective, prospective Subjective, and objective measures Were used to assess participants sleep. The results showed that the poor sleep group had significantly poorer Sustained attention ability than the good sleep group. The differences on other measures of attention were not significant. This study Supports the use of measures that capture specific components of attention rather than global measures of attention, and highlights the importance of assessing and treating sleep problems in brain injury rehabilitation.
