Summary

This study looks at sleep problems like sleep apnea and insomnia in 226 people who have had a stroke. Researchers want to see how these sleep issues affect recovery, daily activities, and quality of life. Participants will use a home sleep test and a smartwatch to track sleep and activity. The goal is to find better ways to identify and help those with sleep disorders after a stroke.
