Researchers are using a new brain imaging technique to determine whether patients who appear to be in a coma following a severe brain injury can feel pain, hear their surroundings and retain preserved conscious awareness. Read more from Lawson Health Research Institute and Western University below!
Researchers at Lawson and Western University have found a new brain imaging technique appears to be able to detect whether patients who are unresponsive following a severe brain injury can feel pain, hear their surroundings and retain conscious awareness. The team used functional near infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS), a portable brain imaging technique, to learn whether patients that appear to be in a coma in the ICU had preserved consciousness by recording brain activity at their bedside.

We are proud to share that Children’s Hospital at LHSC and Shriners Hospitals for Children Canada (SHC Canada) have entered into a first of its kind affiliation to improve care, research and education. This groundbreaking agreement means that patients and families in southwestern Ontario will now have access to specialized paediatric ortheopaedic care closer to home. Fourteen-year-old Reiko Quinlan is one of these patients. Reiko was diagnosed shortly after birth with Osteogenesis imperfecta type III, a severe rare bone disease that has led to over 1,000 bone fractures so far in his lifetime. He was referred to SHC Canada in Montreal for the ultra-specialized care he needed, meaning he and his parents would need to make the eight-hour trip there upwards of eight times a year. Thanks to the affiliation agreement, some of Reiko’s care now takes place at Children’s Hospital, so his family now only makes a 90-minute trip from Goderich to London a few times a month. Read Reiko’s story and the impact that the Children’s Hospital and Shriners Hospitals for Children Canada agreement is making on patients and families: https://lnkd.in/eczzuemS
