Abstract
One of the most probable causes of effective therapy for post-comatose disorders of consciousness is the lack of individualization of drug prescriptions. In this observational study, we analyzed 48 courses of neuromodulatory therapy in 28 patients with prolonged and chronic disorders of consciousness following severe traumatic brain injury. Comparison of 24 effective and 24 ineffective courses demonstrated higher effectiveness of pharmacotherapy through its individualization, i.e. the choice of a drug whose neuromodulatory spectrum would correspond to neurological syndromes of neurotransmitter dysfunction. In this approach, 74% of therapy courses were effective while opposite management resulted only 34% of effective courses.
