Abstract
To evaluate outcome one must define the outcome and those factors that contribute to it. Recent advances in measurement of brain injury by radiology, evoked potentials and electroencephalogram (EEG), cerebral blood flow (CBF) and cerebral metabolism have demonstrated differential prognosis. Outcome from coma has also been expanded to include cognitive and neurobehavioral measures as well as functional assessments.
