Schnakers C et al. – Assessing behavioral responses to nociception is difficult in severely brain–injured patients recovering from coma. The authors here propose a new scale developed for assessing nociception in vegetative (VS) and minimally conscious (MCS) coma survivors, the Nociception Coma Scale (NCS), and explore its concurrent validity, inter–rater agreement and sensitivity...The NCS constitutes a sensitive clinical tool for assessing nociception in severely brain–injured patients.
