Summary
This study looked at whether familiar music or sounds can improve brain responses in people with consciousness disorders after a coma, as well as in healthy volunteers. Researchers measured brain waves to see if hearing a patient's own name after a favorite song led to stronger brain activity. The goal was to understand how music might help with awareness and cognition, not to provide a treatment.
