One of the most commonly diagnosed sleep disorders after traumatic brain injury is sleep apnea, \u0000defined as a cessation of breathing accompanied by frequent arousals and hypoxia during sleep. The effects \u0000of untreated sleep apnea on a person’s cognitive decline and the development of behavioral deficits have only \u0000recently been identified. It has been shown that axonal damage can occur because of sleep apnea and numerous \u0000neuropsychological studies of sleep apnea patients show deficits in cognitive domains, such as executive function \u0000and attention. However, there has been little published discussion regarding the interaction between sleep apnea \u0000and executive function among persons with traumatic brain injury. \u0000Objectives: The objectives of this review were to 1) review/synthesize published work relevant to the discussion \u0000of sleep apnea influencing executive function; and 2) clarify the nature of the interface between executive function \u0000and sleep apnea in persons with traumatic brain injury. \u0000Results: Until now, little attention has been directed to the neurobehavioral consequences of sleep apnea in \u0000persons with traumatic brain injury. There is an urgent need for more longitudinal research examining the effects \u0000of sleep apnea on executive function after traumatic brain injury and the effectiveness of sleep apnea treatment on \u0000executive function after injury.","PeriodicalId":110097,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Sleep Disorders & Therapy","volume":"169 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-07-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116308303","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
