Somatosensory, visual and auditory cortical and brainstem evoked responses were obtained from 32 patients with severe head injury. A simple count of the number of waves present in the various responses provided the optimum method of analysing the data. The results of each cortical response, but not of the brainstem response, correlated with outcome, and a combined assessment gave the highest correlation. The data provided only slight improvement on predictions based upon clinical features.
从32例重度颅脑损伤患者中获取体感、视觉和听觉皮层及脑干诱发电位。对各种反应中出现的波数进行简单计数,是分析数据的最佳方法。每种皮层反应的结果与预后相关,但脑干反应的结果与预后不相关,综合评估的相关性最高。这些数据相比基于临床特征的预测,仅略有改善。
