Limited treatments are available to improve consciousness in severely brain injured patients.
Transcranial Direct Current stimulation (tDCS) is one of the few therapeutics that showed
evidence of efficacy to increase level of consciousness and functional communication in some
Minimally Conscious State (MCS) patients, and in some Vegetative State (VS) patients.
However the mechanisms by which tDCS improves consciousness are poorly understood and the
electrophysiological effects of such a stimulation have never been studied in disorders of
consciousness patients.
In this study, the investigators will use detailed clinical examinations and
electrophysiological assessments (quantitative high-density EEG and event-related potentials)
to assess the effect of a open-label single session of left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex
tDCS stimulation administered as routine care.

---|---|---|---|---|
Primary | Support vector machine multivariate prediction of consciousness from resting state EEG markers | Change from baseline of the predicted probability of conscious state, ie. to be classified a in a 'minimally conscious state' as opposed to be classified as in a 'vegetative state'. The prediction will be based on a set of markers extracted from the EEG (power spectra, information theory, complexity and connectivity markers) and will use a support vector machine classifier algorithm train on a validated database. See Sitt et al., Brain et al. 2014. for details on the EEG preprocessing, markers extraction, support vector machine algorithm and training database. |
Two time points: immediately before (baseline) and immediately after stimulation (post-stimulation) | |
Primary | Evoked response potential during auditory oddball paradigm | Change of the Evoked Response Potentials recorded during the auditory oddball paradigm | Two time points: immediately before (baseline) and immediately after stimulation (post-stimulation) | |
Secondary | Resting state EEG individual markers | In addition to the multivariate classification from the EEG, the response to stimulation will be evaluated on several quantitative markers derived from the EEG: power spectrum, complexity and connectivity assessed by the weighted symbolic mutual information (King & Sitt, Current Biology 2013; Sitt, Brain 2014; Engemann & Raimondo, Brain 2018) | Two time points: immediately before (baseline) and immediately after stimulation (post-stimulation) | |
Secondary | State of consciousness | Change of the Coma Recovery Scale-Revised scores (CRS-R, Giacino et al. Neurology 2002 and Kalmar et al., Neuropsychol Rehabil 2005) between before and after stimulation (CRS-R post stimulation - CRS-R before stimulation). The CRS-R score is a qualitative and quantitative scales ranking predefined behaviors elicited by the patients in the following six subscales, auditory function, visual function, motor function, verbal and oromotor function, communication and wakefulness, the sum of which give a total score ranging from 0 to 23. Higher values of the scale mean a better state of consciousness. | Two time points: immediately before (baseline) and immediately after stimulation (post-stimulation) |
