Item Proceedings of the Second Curing Coma Campaign NIH Symposium: Challenging the Future of Research for Coma and Disorders of Consciousness(Springer, 2022) Mainali, Shraddha; Aiyagari, Venkatesh; Alexander, Sheila; Bodien, Yelena; Boerwinkle, Varina; Boly, Melanie; Brown, Emery; Brown, Jeremy; Claassen, Jan; Edlow, Brian L.; Fink, Ericka L.; Fins, Joseph J.; Foreman, Brandon; Frontera, Jennifer; Geocadin, Romergryko G.; Giacino, Joseph; Gilmore, Emily J.; Gosseries, Olivia; Hammond, Flora; Helbok, Raimund; Hemphill, J.

Here, we summarize the background, research priorities, panel discussions, and deliverables discussed during the symposium across six major domains related to disorders of consciousness. The six domains include (1) Biology of Coma, (2) Coma Database, (3) Neuroprognostication, (4) Care of Comatose Patients, (5) Early Clinical Trials, and (6) Long-term Recovery. Following the 1st Curing Coma NIH virtual symposium held on September 9 to September 10, 2020, six workgroups, each consisting of field experts in respective domains, were formed and tasked with identifying gaps and developing key priorities and deliverables to advance the mission of the Curing Coma Campaign. The highly interactive and inspiring presentations and panel discussions during the 3-day virtual NIH symposium identified several action items for the Curing Coma Campaign mission, which we summarize in this article.Item Research Needs for Prognostic Modeling and Trajectory Analysis in Patients with Disorders of Consciousness(Springer, 2021) Hammond, Flora M.; Katta-Charles, Sheryl; Russell, Mary Beth; Zafonte, Ross D.; Claassen, Jan; Wagner, Amy K.; Puybasset, Louis; Egawa, Satoshi; Laureys, Steven; Diringer, Michael; Stevens, Robert D.; Curing Coma Campaign and its Contributing Members; Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, School of MedicineBackground: The current state of the science regarding the care and prognosis of patients with disorders of consciousness is limited. Scientific advances are needed to improve the accuracy, relevance, and approach to prognostication, thereby providing the foundation to develop meaningful and effective interventions. Methods: To address this need, an interdisciplinary expert panel was created as part of the Coma Science Working Group of the Neurocritical Care Society Curing Coma Campaign. Results: The panel performed a gap analysis which identified seven research needs for prognostic modeling and trajectory analysis ("recovery science") in patients with disorders of consciousness: (1) to define the variables that predict outcomes; (2) to define meaningful intermediate outcomes at specific time points for different endotypes; (3) to describe recovery trajectories in the absence of limitations to care; (4) to harness big data and develop analytic methods to prognosticate more accurately; (5) to identify key elements and processes for communicating prognostic uncertainty over time; (6) to identify health care delivery models that facilitate recovery and recovery science; and (7) to advocate for changes in the health care delivery system needed to advance recovery science and implement already-known best practices. Conclusion: This report summarizes the current research available to inform the proposed research needs, articulates key elements within each area, and discusses the goals and advances in recovery science and care anticipated by successfully addressing these needs.
