Hello sir im RN my brother suffered from road accident had a brain injury diffuse axonal Injury.he is in vegetative state a year ..how much time will require to become fully conscious??

[@summitmedicalinstitute]

Thank you for your question. That can be very difficult to predict, however, as the severity of each injury is a little unique.

Thank you for the information. I'm an RN but Neuro is not where I worked. My brother has a severe motorcycle accident w/TBI and DAI. Unfortunately he could not have an MRI due to shrapnel in his body. But it was obvious it was a very traumatic injury. He lost his gag, no response when sedation reduced and we eventually removed life support with his death within 20 minutes. TBI's/DAI's are horrible, horrible injuries. Thank you for sharing information to help families understand these injuries.
