Neurorehabilitation in Disorders of Consciousness

Seminars in Neurology, 2013
Survivors of severe acquired brain injury often experience prolonged disturbance in consciousness following emergence from coma. Most individuals pass through the vegetative or minimally conscious states en route to eventual recovery of consciousness, although either condition may be permanent.

Functional neuroimaging in disorders of consciousness: towards clinical implementation

Brain : a journal of neurology
Functional neuroimaging has provided several new tools for improving both the diagnosis and prognosis in patients with disorders of consciousness. These tools are now being used to detect residual and covert awareness in behaviourally non-responsive ...

Cognitive Motor Dissociation in Disorders of Consciousness

New England Journal of Medicine
BACKGROUND Patients with brain injury who are unresponsive to commands may perform cognitive tasks that are detected on functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and electroencephalography (EEG). This phenomenon, known as cognitive motor dissociation,

Mesocircuit mechanisms in the diagnosis and treatment of disorders of consciousness.

Presse medicale, 2022
The 'mesocircuit hypothesis' proposes mechanisms underlying the recovery of consciousness following severe brain injuries. The model builds up from a single premise that multifocal brain injuries resulting in coma and subsequent disorders of ...

Limitation of life sustaining therapy in disorders of consciousness: ethics and practice.

Brain : a journal of neurology
Clinical conversations surrounding the continuation or limitation of life-sustaining treatments (LLST) are both challenging and tragically necessary for patients with Disorders of Consciousness (DoC) following severe brain injury.

Interpreting Change in Disorders of Consciousness Using the Coma Recovery Scale-Revised

Journal of Neurotrauma
The purpose of this study was to differentiate clinically meaningful improvement or deterioration from normal fluctuations in patients with disorders of consciousness (DoC) following severe brain injury. We computed indices of responsiveness for the Coma

Coma and disorders of consciousness

2013
Patients in coma, vegetative state/unresponsive wakefulness syndrome, and in minimally conscious states pose medical, scientific, and ethical challenges. As patients with disorders of consciousness are by definition unable to communicate, the assessment of pain, quality of life, and end-of-life preferences in these conditions can only be approached by ...

Behavioral Assessment of Patients with Disorders of Consciousness

Seminars in neurology, 2022
Severe brain injury is associated with a period of impaired level of consciousness that can last from days to months and results in chronic impairment.

Delirium: A disorder of consciousness?

Medical Hypotheses, 2013
Delirium is recognised as a disorder of consciousness, however, no evidence has been previously generated to specifically address this premise. In order to evaluate this established notion, we have attempted to review consciousness, the components of consciousness and the emerging evidence for neuroanatomical correlates and then relate this to the ...

Electrophysiology and Disorders of Consciousness

2012
Electroencephalography offers different insights into brain activity useful in the study of disorders of consciousness. In this paper we focus on three aspects of electroencephalography, namely standard clinical assessments, event related potentials (ERP) and quantitative electroencephalography (qEEG).
