Sleep medicine is inextricably interwoven with neurological health, be it in the young, adult, or geriatric population. Recent studies have highlighted its clinical benefit in autism, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, traumatic brain injury, headache, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, neuromuscular disease, stroke, and Alzheimer's disease. The tool of sleep health optimization may provide significant benefit and transform outcome and prognosis, and may also help yield a greater insight into many of these neurologic conditions.
