No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Most patients with minimal consciousness status in Critical Care Units (CCU) are considered as an 'unconscious patient' with a neurological examination. Evaluating these patients as unconscious patients may lead to neglect of psychosocial needs in patient-care, a continuation of unchanged treatment protocols for a long time and desperate evaluation of prognosis. In this study, the investigators aimed to evaluate the emotional responses of patients who were considered by the healthcare providers and relatives of patients as an 'unconscious patient' by using electrophysiological tests.
