Abstract

Sleep disturbance is common in older adults experiencing knee pain or knee pain with radiographic evidence of OA and is best understood through the consideration of demographic, physical health, physical functioning, pain, and psychosocial variables. Interventions that take into account the multidetermined nature of sleep disturbance in knee pain or knee OA are most likely to be successful.
