Frage 5 von 6

1

Your pt is unconscious and unaware of their surroundings. They do not speak or respond to verbal commands. They do, however, have sleep-wake cycles and they may have their eyes open and have the ability to visually track objects. They may also have generalized nonspecific movements, groan, or show reflex responses (i.e. withdrawals from pain). An individual in this state has no evidence of cerebral cortical function. Thus, they have no awareness of self or awareness of the environment.

  • Stupor

  • Coma

  • Vegetative State

  • Minimally Conscious State
