Cognitive event-related potentials in comatose and post-comatose states.
We review the interest of cognitive event-related potentials (ERPs) in comatose, vegetative, or minimally conscious patients. Auditory cognitive ERPs are useful to investigate residual cognitive functions, such as echoic memory (MMN), acoustical and semantic discrimination (P300), and incongruent language detection (N400). While early ERPs (such as the absence of cortical responses on somatosen...
متن کاملPatterns of arousal in comatose patients.
The EEG changes, with associated cardiorespiratory phenomena and, where possible, postmortem findings, are described in six patients in coma, with some reference to other similar cases. Spontaneously occurring periodic changes were observed at varying intervals between 20 s and 4 min but most commonly at 1/2-2 min. These involved simultaneous cardiorespiratory, EEG, and somatic motor phenomena ...
متن کاملFourteen and six c/sec positive bursts in comatose patients.
Of ten patients with Reye's syndrome, there were five with stage II or III coma where EEGs revealed 14 c/sec positive bursts in a background of diffuse delta waves. Positive bursts disappeared upon EEG improvement in two survivors and when the EEG became nearly isoelectric in two other patients. Although 14 and 6 c/sec positive bursts are seen commonly during sleep in normal young persons, thei...
متن کاملPatient transport and brain oxygen in comatose patients.
OBJECTIVE Transport of critically ill intensive care unit patients may be hazardous. We examined whether brain oxygen (brain tissue oxygen partial pressure [PbtO2]) is influenced by transport to and from a follow-up head computed tomography (transport head computed tomography [tHCT]) scan. METHODS Forty-five patients (24 men, 21 women; Glasgow Coma Scale score < or =8; mean age, 47.3 +/- 19.0...
متن کاملPrognosis of deeply comatose patients on ventilators.
Although the concept of brain death has been widely accepted, the criteria required for making the diagnosis remain controversial. This prospective study was undertaken to examine the reliability of a set of clinical criteria adopted in Taiwan. One hundred and forty deeply comatose patients (101 men, 39 women; mean age 49.5 (SD 17.6) years) requiring ventilation were studied. Seventy three pati...
