ABSTRACT

Disorders of consciousness (DOC) Serious brain injury with long treatment and recovery cycles. Today, with the dedicated research of clinicians and the rapid development of neuroimaging, we have made remarkable achievements in identifying patients' residual consciousness, explaining the biological mechanisms of consciousness recovery, and reconstructing damaged neural pathways with precision therapy techniques. Accurate assessment of brain function of patients with consciousness disorders should be continuously improved, so as to provide clinical guarantee for the diagnosis and treatment of patients with consciousness disorders. Electroencephalogram (EEG) can reflect cerebral cortex function; while brainstem auditory evoked potential (BAEP) can reflect brainstem function. Both of them are widely used to assess the prognosis of consciousness disorders due to their simple operation. It has been found that using EEG or BAEP alone to predict the prognosis of DOC patients has certain limitations. Therefore this article reviews the progress of EEG combined with brainstem auditory evoked potentials in the prognosis assessment of patients with consciousness disorder, in order to provide reference for relevant professionals.
