Coma

Neurosurgery Clinics of North America, 1999
Comatose patients are unresponsive to all external stimuli, noxious or otherwise. Neuro-ophthalmic techniques are paramount in the neurologic assessment of comatose patients, especially with regard to brain stem localization and diagnosis. Examination of the pupils, fundi, and corneal reflexes are all helpful; however, the ocular motility examination ...

A gaze-independent audiovisual brain-computer Interface for detecting awareness of patients with disorders of consciousness

BMC Neurology, 2018
Background Currently, it is challenging to detect the awareness of patients who suffer disorders of consciousness (DOC). Brain-computer interfaces (BCIs), which do not depend on the behavioral response of patients, may serve for detecting the awareness ...

Temporality of Features in Near-Death Experience Narratives

Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2017
Background: After an occurrence of a Near-Death Experience (NDE), Near-Death Experiencers (NDErs) usually report extremely rich and detailed narratives. Phenomenologically, a NDE can be described as a set of distinguishable features.

Association of Corticospinal Tract Asymmetry With Ambulatory Ability After Intracerebral Hemorrhage

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Ambulatory ability after intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is important to patients. We tested whether asymmetry between ipsi‐ and contra‐lesional corticospinal tracts (CSTs) assessed by diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) is associated with post‐ICH ambulation.

Measures of metabolism and complexity in the brain of patients with disorders of consciousness

NeuroImage: Clinical, 2017
Background: Making an accurate diagnosis in patients with disorders of consciousness remains challenging. 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG)–PET has been validated as a diagnostic tool in this population, and allows identifying unresponsive patients with a ...

Refractory Status Epilepticus Treated With Bilateral Pulvinar Deep Brain Stimulation—A Case Study

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT New‐onset refractory status epilepticus (NORSE) arises without an identifiable cause or prior epilepsy history, with a 16%–27% mortality rate and significant long‐term neurological sequelae. Neuromodulation such as deep brain stimulation (DBS) targeting the anterior and centromedian thalamic nuclei has shown promise when the traditional ...
