Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: 1. Age 18–80 years; 2. Patients with impaired consciousness following severe acquired brain injury, including traumatic brain injury, stroke, hypoxic-ischemic brain injury, postoperative brain injury, encephalitis, or other non-degenerative structural brain injuries; 3. Vital signs are relatively stable, and the patient is capable of completing two independent CRS-R assessments and routine EEG recordings; 4. A legal representative is available to sign a written informed consent form; 5. Expected to be able to complete the study protocol by the time of the baseline assessment.
Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: 1. Persistent deep sedation, general anesthesia, or uncontrolled status epilepticus during the scheduled assessment window; 2. Hemodynamic or respiratory instability that precludes the safe completion of a bedside assessment or EEG examination; 3. Concurrent severe failure of a major organ, or a life expectancy of less than 2 weeks as determined by the investigator; 4. Severe uncorrected bilateral visual or hearing impairment that prevents the administration of standardized behavioral assessments; 5. History of confirmed neurodegenerative disease, severe developmental disorders, or other conditions that significantly affect the interpretation of the CRS-R; 6. Other circumstances deemed inappropriate for enrollment by the investigator.
