UP to 42- 65 % of MS patients are believed to have sleep disorders. Sleep abnormalities have a deleterious impact on cognitive functions in MS patients. It is critical to assess the cognitive and sleep affection as well as the bidirectional relationship in patients with multiple sclerosis thus improve overall health and quality of life.
