NCT ID NCT07180589
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study aims to create a more accurate diagnostic system for people with disorders of consciousness, such as coma or vegetative state, after severe brain injury. Researchers will combine clinical exams, brain scans, and electrical brain tests to develop an intelligent tool. The goal is to better detect signs of consciousness and predict recovery. The study will enroll 200 participants in Beijing.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could lead to a more accurate and reliable way to diagnose and predict recovery in patients with disorders of consciousness.
- What could go wrong
- This is an early-stage study focused on developing a diagnostic tool, not a treatment. The new system may not prove more accurate than current methods, and results may not apply to all patients.
