DISORDER OF CONSCIOUSNESS

This study tests a new, non-invasive brain stimulation method called temporal interference stimulation to see if it can safely help people with severe consciousness disorders, like a coma or vegetative state, regain awareness. The trial will involve 20 adults aged 18-75 who have …

This small study tests whether a drug called cerebrolysin can improve consciousness in people who have been in a vegetative or minimally conscious state for over a month after a bleeding stroke. Twelve adults aged 19 to 80 will receive either the drug or a placebo daily for two w…

This study tests whether a robotic tilt-table that moves patients' legs while standing them upright helps recovery better than traditional standing methods. It includes 118 adults with severe brain injury who are not yet able to stand. The goal is to see if this approach improves…

This study tests whether listening to preferred music can improve the level of consciousness in patients with severe brain injuries, such as traumatic brain injury or disorders of consciousness. Researchers will measure changes in consciousness using a standard scale and brain sc…

This study looks at whether hearing a loved one's voice saying your name can give doctors better clues about recovery in people who are unconscious after a brain injury. About 114 patients in intensive care will listen to recordings of their own name spoken by a familiar or unfam…

This study follows 130 patients with severe brain injuries (from stroke, trauma, or lack of oxygen) who are in a coma or minimally conscious state. Researchers will use brain scans, electrical tests, and regular check-ups to find clues that predict if and when a patient might reg…

This study gathers opinions from patients, families, and doctors about using advanced brain scans and EEG to detect consciousness in people who appear unresponsive after severe brain injury. The goal is not to treat, but to understand what matters ethically when using these techn…
