NCT02838082

Brief Summary

OSABI is a pilot study of a sleep hygiene protocol for sleep disruptions associated with TBI during inpatient rehabilitation. Twenty participants will be allocated (by minimization) either into a standard of care protocol or a sleep hygiene protocol for 4 weeks. Sleep efficiency (via actigraphy), post traumatic amnesia (OLOG), agitation (Agitated Behavior Scale) and cognitive function (Confusion Assessment Protocol) will be monitored during the trial period to examine relationships among them.
