Summary

Precise description of behavioral signs denoting transition from unresponsive wakefulness syndrome/vegetative state (UWS/VS) to minimally conscious state (MCS) or emergence from MCS after severe brain injury is crucial for prognostic purposes. A few studies have attempted this goal but involved either non-standardized instruments, limited temporal accuracy or samples, or focused on (sub)acute patients. The objective of this study is to describe the behavioral signs that led to a change of diagnosis, as well as the factors influencing this transition, in a large sample of patients with chronic disorders of consciousness after severe brain injury.
