First seen Mar 20, 2026 · Last updated May 18, 2026 · Updated 7 times
Summary
This study tests whether a lightweight headband called fNIRS can measure brain activity in healthy adults and in people with disorders of consciousness, like coma, after severe brain injury. The goal is to see if this tool can safely detect brain responses to sounds, touch, and mental tasks at the bedside. This is an observational study, not a treatment, and involves 55 participants in a single 30-45 minute session.
