Primary | The prevalence of anxiety in caregivers of patients with disorders of consciousness. | We use the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory Form Y (STAI-Y) to assess the prevalence and severity degree of anxiety for caregivers of patients with disorders of consciousness (DoC)
STAI was a self-rating scale, consisting of 40 items and divided into two subscales: 1) state anxiety (S-AI) scale includes questions 1-20, state anxiety shows the transitory unpleasant. 2) trait anxiety (T-AI) scale includes questions 21-40, trait anxiety tends to the personality trait. The cumulative score values of state anxiety and trait anxiety scales were calculated respectively, the minimum to maximum value was from 20 to 80, the higher scores mean a worse outcome. |

Primary | The prevalence and severity degree of depression in caregivers of patients with disorders of consciousness. | We use the Beck Depression Inventory-II (BDI-II) to assess the prevalence and severity degree of depression for caregivers of patients with disorders of consciousness (DoC)
BDI total score: 0-13 as no depression, 14-19 as mild depression, 20-28 as medium depression, and 29-63 as severe depression. |

Primary | The prevalence and severity degree of burden in caregivers of patients with disorders of consciousness. | We use the Zarit Caregiver Burden Scale (ZBI) to assess the prevalence and severity degree of burden for caregivers of patients with disorders of consciousness (DoC)
ZBI total score: 0-20 indicates no burden, 21-40 mild burden, 41-60 moderate burden, and 61-88 severe burden. |

Primary | The predictors of anxiety in caregivers of patients with disorders of consciousness. | We choose a series of questionnaires to figure out: what are the characteristics of patients and caregivers were caregivers' anxiety predictors?
The questionnaires include social-demographic questionnaires (including personal information of patients and caregivers e.g., age, gender, etiology, diagnosis, and so on, to record their basic information) and the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory Form Y (STAI-Y). We used the Independent-sample T-test, one-way ANOVA, Mann-Whitney U test, Kruskal-Wallis test, and Pearson Correlation to calculate the correlation between the characteristics of patients and caregivers and caregivers' anxiety. |

Secondary | The diagnoses of patients with disorders of consciousness (DoC) | The DoC patients were evaluated 3-5 times Coma Recovery Scale-Revised (CRS-R) within 10 days after questionnaire distribution to determine their current state of consciousness. | Within 10 days | |
Secondary | The relationship between patient diagnoses and caregivers' anxiety | We compare patient diagnoses (assessed by Coma Recovery Scale-Revised (CRS-R) ) and caregivers' anxiety (assessed by the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory Form Y (STAI-Y) )
We used the one-way ANOVA to calculate the relationship between patient diagnoses and caregivers' anxiety. |
