Coma Recovery Scale

The Coma Recovery Scale (CRS) is a clinical tool used by healthcare professionals to assess and measure a person's level of consciousness after a brain injury. It evaluates various functions such as auditory, visual, motor, verbal, and communication responses. The scale helps determine if a person is in a coma, vegetative state, or minimally conscious, and tracks changes over time. By providing a structured way to observe responses, it aids in diagnosis, prognosis, and planning appropriate care and rehabilitation strategies.
