It is now firmly established that bilateral abolition of somatosensory evoked potentials (SEPs) after a nontraumatic coma has 100% specificity for nonawakening. In traumatic coma, a bilateral absence of the N20 components of SEPs does not implicate nonawareness. Comatose brain-injured patients should be systematically explored with auditory evoked potentials to check the functional integrity of another sensory pathway and the mesencephalic tegmento-tectal region on cerebral MRI should be carefully examined. Repeated evaluations during follow-up are also mandatory.
现已明确证实,非创伤性昏迷后双侧体感诱发电位(SEP)消失对无法苏醒具有100%的特异性。在创伤性昏迷中,SEP的N20成分双侧缺失并不意味着无意识。对于昏迷的脑损伤患者,应系统地进行听觉诱发电位检查,以检查另一条感觉通路的功能完整性,并且应仔细检查脑部MRI上的中脑被盖-顶盖区域。随访期间的重复评估也是必不可少的。
