Patient 14 | 42 | Male | NTBI | 6 | EMCS | 20 (4-5-6-1-2-2) |
Patient 15 | 73 | Male | NTBI | 12 | LIS | – |
LIS, locked-in syndrome; MCS, minimally-conscious state; EMCS, emerging from MCS; NTBI, non-traumatic brain injury; TBI, traumatic brain injury; VS, vegetative state. In the CRS-R score column, the second numbers in brackets are the sub-scores of visual function. A value of 2 in the second sub-score means that the patient showed visual fixation in the behavioral assessment.
