Brain, Behavior, and Cognitive Interplay in Disorders of Consciousness: A Multiple Case Study

Frontiers in Neurology, 2018
Patients with prolonged disorders of consciousness (DoC) after severe brain injury may present residual behavioral and cognitive functions. Yet the bedside assessment of these functions is compromised by patients' multiple impairments.

A Heartbeat Away From Consciousness: Heart Rate Variability Entropy Can Discriminate Disorders of Consciousness and Is Correlated With Resting-State fMRI Brain Connectivity of the Central Autonomic Network

Frontiers in Neurology, 2018
Background: Disorders of consciousness are challenging to diagnose, with inconsistent behavioral responses, motor and cognitive disabilities, leading to approximately 40% misdiagnoses.

Assessment and management of pain/nociception in patients with disorders of consciousness or locked-in syndrome: A narrative review

Frontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2023
The assessment and management of pain and nociception is very challenging in patients unable to communicate functionally such as patients with disorders of consciousness (DoC) or in locked-in syndrome (LIS).

Auditory and Somatosensory P3 Are Complementary for the Assessment of Patients with Disorders of Consciousness

Brain Sciences, 2020
The evaluation of the level of consciousness in patients with disorders of consciousness (DOC) is primarily based on behavioural assessments. Patients with unresponsive wakefulness syndrome (UWS) do not show any sign of awareness of their environment ...
