Sleep parameters, functional status and time post-stroke are associated with off-line motor skill learning in people with chronic stroke

Sleep parameters, functional status and time post-stroke are associated with off-line motor skill learning in people with chronic stroke

Background: Mounting evidence demonstrates that individuals with stroke benefit from sleep to enhance learning of a motor task. While stage NREM2 sleep and REM sleep have been associated with off-line motor skill learning in neurologically-intact individuals, it remains unknown which sleep parameter...
