Sleep Characteristics in Adults With and Without Chronic Musculoskeletal Pain: The Role of Mental Distress and Pain Catastrophizing.
Abstract
Sleep disturbance is associated with persistence and exacerbation of chronic pain. As this relationship seems to be bidirectional, factors underpinning sleep disturbance may prove valuable in multimodal rehabilitation approaches. The aim of this cross-sectional study was to examine the impact of psychological symptoms on subjective and objective sleep measures in patients with chronic musculoskeletal pain (CMP) as compared to healthy controls (HC).
