2-year Mortality and Dynamics in Patients with pDOC after anoxic brain injury

The objective of this study was to collect data on the 2-year survival and the dynamics of the level of consciousness in patients with prolonged disorders of consciousness (pDOC) as a consequence of global ischemia. All patients (n=52) had a diagnosis of prolonged DOC and were admitted to Federal Research and Clinical Center of Intensive Care Medicine and Rehabilitology in Moscow after anoxic brain injury. We hope, that the data can aid in choosing the vector of further medical and social way of each pDOC patient and design appropriate measures to help the patient himself and, what can be equally important, his relatives.
