Abstract

As the occurrence of traumatic events has increased in mainstream media the study of Trauma-Related Sleep Disturbance (TRSD) has gained more traction within the field of sleep health. TRSD is prevalent in youth and can have deleterious outcomes that impact function, yet empirical data that examine this topic are limited. This review seeks to highlight the extant literature focusing on TRSD and to identify critical areas of future research.
