Summary
This study tested whether adding ear acupuncture (with tiny press needles) to standard care and nerve stimulation could help people with traumatic brain injury regain consciousness. Sixty patients with severe brain injury were split into two groups; one group got the ear acupuncture plus standard care, the other got standard care alone. The researchers tracked awakening rates and recovery scores over 8 weeks, and also measured family satisfaction.
