Sleep and Brain Injury
Routledge (Verlag)
978-0-367-18896-2 (ISBN)
The book then looks towards the applied aspects of treatment and rehabilitation, bringing further thoughts of how, because of this new understanding, we can potentially offer novel treatments for brain injury recovery and sleep problems. In this final practical part, four sleep foundations are given, necessary to optimize the three most common sleep problems and their treatments after brain injury.
This new approach highlights how sleep can affect the specific functional effects of brain injury and how brain injury can exacerbate some of the specific functional effects of sleep problems, thus having the potential to transform the field of neurorehabilitation. It is essential reading for professionals working with brain injury and postgraduate students in clinical neuropsychology.
Crawford M. Thomas has been in healthcare and academe for over 30 years. He has designed, implemented, and led inpatient and community acquired brain injury neurorehabilitation services. A skilled Consultant Clinical Neuropsychologist and Neuroscientist, he is the clinical lead of one of the largest community acquired brain injury teams in the UK, working for Cheshire and Wirral Partnership NHS Foundation Trust.
