Summary
This study tested whether having family members provide emotional support and positive interaction could help coma patients with traumatic brain injury recover. 120 patients in an Egyptian ICU were split into two groups: one received standard care, the other also got regular visits where family spoke and touched them gently. Results showed that the family-stimulation group had better consciousness levels and coma recovery scores. The approach is simple, low-cost, and could be added to normal hospital care.
