We investigated the potential of the P300 as a reliable marker of conscious processing in patients with locked-in syndrome (LIS). Eleven chronic LIS patients and 10 healthy subjects (HS) listened to a complex-tone auditory oddball paradigm, first in a passive condition (listen to ...
متن کاملA Step-Wise Multidisciplinary Rehabilitation Approach of Central Pontine and Extra Pontine Myelinosis in Locked-In Syndrome: A Case Report
Central Pontine Myelinosis (CPM) and Extra Pontine Myelinosis (EPM) are debilitating conditions, resulting from the rapid correction of hyponatremia. The outcome and prognosis of this medical condition are variable; mainly involving functional decline from neuro-musculoskeletal upset.
