Abstract

Our study offers empirical support for insomnia and chronic pain as potential explanatory mechanisms underlying the relationship between TBI history and suboptimal PAP adherence. While additional research is needed to confirm causality, findings offer preliminary evidence that can inform the development of tailored PAP adherence interventions for Veterans with TBI and obstructive sleep apnea.
