ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the clinical effect of fastigial nucleus electrical stimulation(FNS) treating the disorders of consciousness by brain damage,and explore the possible mechanism.Methods:9 patients with the disorders of consciousness by brain damage of different pathogeneses were studied.They were treated with FNS on the basis of routine medical treatment.And Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS),electroencephalogram(EEG) and the clinical effects were observed.Results:After FNS treatment,the level of conciousness was improved.GCS were increased 5.22?1.44,which showed significant difference compared to that before treatment ( P
