In this study, we sought to assess the predictors of outcome in patients with disorders of consciousness (DOC) after severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) during neurorehabilitation stay. In total, 96 patients with DOC (vegetative state, minimally cons

We propose a new set of clinical variables for a more accurate early prediction of safe decannulation in patients with severe acquired brain injury (ABI), during a post-acute rehabilitation course. Starting from the already validated DecaPreT scale,

The rate of paroxysmal sympathetic hyperactivity was retrospectively assessed using the Paroxysmal Sympathetic Hyperactivity--Assessment Measure (PSH-AM) scale in patients with disorders of consciousness due to traumatic and non-traumatic acquired br

Visual pursuit is a key descriptor of the minimally conscious state (above 80% of cases). It is also observable in about 20% of subjects in vegetative state. Its reappearance after severe brain damage anticipates a favorable outcome, with recovery of
