Listening to @cbivanhoe's patient of 17 years during "Persons with the lived experience of spasticity" session at Spasticity X. What an inspiring session to learn patient's perspectives. #TherapeuticAlliance

We need more stories like this shared/published to increase awareness of good outcomes that are possible after severe brain injury. Falsely assumed poor prognosis and futility in rehab can limit patients' recovery potential more than their brain injury itself.

Alison's daughter sustained a severe traumatic brain injury as the result of an ATV accident, and doctors thought she may never recover. The experience of becoming a caregiver has resulted in Alison gaining a new perspective. Read her full story here: bit.ly/3RFafLJ

What is the best test to detect consciousness in the ICU? Behavioral exam? fMRI? EEG? Or is it TMS-EEG? We discuss the potential for TMS-EEG measurements of brain complexity to improve care for patients with severe brain injuries in the ICU. link.springer.com/article/10.100… @CuringComa

Specialized intensive inpatient rehabilitation is crucial and time-sensitive for DoC frontiersin.org/articles/10.33… Key messages: 1) Persons with DoC can make measurable functional improvements with intensive rehabilitation, measured by and beyond the standard scales.

1. People with DoC make measurable functional improvement. 2. The earlier they come to inpatient rehab, the more functional improvement they make. 3. Rehab is equally important for DoC caused by any etiology. 4. Chronic DoC should not be overlooked. #TIRRDoCOutcomePaper2023

Couldn’t ask for a better colleague and friend to learn from @I_B_I_A World Congress on Brain Injury in #Dublin @JeanWooMD talking about debunking the idea that #DoC patients don’t get better. Work started by @BeiZhangMD coming to fruition. 🙌🏼 #TIRR #rehabilitation

A phrase that struck me hard during #DisordersofConsciousness Assessment and Treatment Abstract session @I_B_I_A. "Don't save us, then leave us." Thanks for the great talk @McCannAE16 on caregiving for people with prolonged DoC!

My esteemed colleague, Dr. Katherine O'Brien @ko400 sharing #DisordersofConsciousness care in the US during Global Analysis session at #IBIA. Definitely eye opening to hear about different healthcare systems and clinical challenges faced in other countries.

Doctors at a major US insurance company deny tens of thousands of claims a month without even looking at patients’ files. “We literally click & submit,” a former Cigna doctor told @ProPublica & @Capitol_Forum. “It takes all of 10 seconds to do 50 at a time.” The inside story 🧵
