Recovery assessment after severe brain injury
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation, Injuries & trauma, Mental health clinical trials.
This study looks at how well people recover consciousness after a severe brain injury that happens from trauma or bleeding in the brain. It helps doctors understand recovery patterns and may improve care for patients in a coma or minimally conscious state.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study uses brain scans to understand how people with severe brain injuries may recover consciousness. It is for patients who have had a recent brain injury and are in a coma, vegetative state, or minimally conscious state.
This study is testing a new way to predict recovery for people with serious brain injuries in the ICU. It uses continuous brain monitoring to gather more information and help doctors make better treatment decisions.
This study uses a special EEG test to measure brain activity in people who are not fully conscious after a recent brain injury. The goal is to find better ways to know if someone will wake up and recover thinking abilities.
This study checks how awake and aware you are using two standard checklists (CRS-R and SECONDs). It's for people with recent brain injuries in intensive care who are still very dependent.
This trial studies tiny, subconscious movements in people who have been in a coma or minimal consciousness for over a month after a severe brain injury. It aims to understand these movements better, which could help improve care and communication.
This study follows patients who have been in a coma (deep unconsciousness) for at least 24 hours due to a brain injury. Researchers will track how patients recover over time to better understand which factors help predict who will wake up and how well they'll recover.
