Prognostication of Recovery in Early Disorders of Consciousness After COVID-19 (PREDICT-COVID)

April 3, 2023 updated by: Brian L. Edlow, M.D., Massachusetts General Hospital
The primary aim of this research proposal is to use multimodal metrics (e.g., clinical data and advanced neuroimaging) in the early (i.e., acute hospitalization) phase of recovery from COVID-19-related disorders of consciousness to predict outcome at 3, 6, and 12 months post-hospitalization. We aim to construct an algorithm that synthesizes the results of these metrics to help predict recovery.
