Detecting number processing and mental calculation in patients with disorders of consciousness using a hybrid brain-computer interface system [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Background: For patients with disorders of consciousness such as coma, a vegetative state or a minimally conscious state, one challenge is to detect and assess the residual cognitive functions in their brains. Number processing and mental calculation are

Distinct interactions between fronto-parietal and default mode networks in impaired consciousness [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Existing evidence suggests that the default-mode network (DMN) and fronto-pariatal network (FPN) play an important role in altered states of consciousness.

USE OF AN INFRA-LOW FREQUENCY EEG BIOLOGICAL FEEDBACK TECHNIQUE IN THE COMPREHENSIVE REHABILITATION OF PATIENTS WITH A DECREASED LEVEL OF CONSCIOUSNESS

open access: yesНеврология, нейропсихиатрия, психосоматика, 2016
A protocol for EEG biological feedback (BFB) at infra-low frequencies (<0.01 Hz) corresponding to those of the brain default mode network has been devised in recent years.Objective: to evaluate the therapeutic features of an EEG BFB technique in the ...

A Bayesian statistical analysis of behavioral facilitation associated with deep brain stimulation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is an established therapy for Parkinson's Disease and is being investigated as a treatment for chronic depression, obsessive compulsive disorder and for facilitating functional recovery of patients in minimally conscious ...

The Minimally Conscious State [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Neurology, 2007
Limited epidemiologic data undermine the identification of patients in a minimally conscious state (MCS) and needed health policy analysis. Based on the natural history of disorders of consciousness and the evolution of MCS, we propose 2 models to characterize MCS epidemiology: a severity model to integrate diagnostic and severity of injury codes, such

Disruption of transfer entropy and inter-hemispheric brain functional connectivity in patients with disorder of consciousness [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Severe traumatic brain injury can lead to disorders of consciousness (DOC) characterized by deficit in conscious awareness and cognitive impairment including coma, vegetative state, minimally consciousness, and lock-in syndrome.

Neurophysiological and Behavioral Responses to Music Therapy in Vegetative and Minimally Conscious States [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Assessment of awareness for those with disorders of consciousness is a challenging undertaking, due to the complex presentation of the population. Debate surrounds whether behavioral assessments provide greatest accuracy in diagnosis compared to neuro ...

Human Computer Interface for Tracking Eye Movements Improves Assessment and Diagnosis of Patients With Acquired Brain Injuries

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2019
One of the first clinical signs differentiating the minimally conscious state from the vegetative state is the presence of smooth pursuit eye movements occurring in direct response to moving salient stimuli.
