Consciousness measurement

Consciousness measurement involves quantifying an individual's awareness and cognitive function. It is often assessed using clinical tools like the Glasgow Coma Scale or EEG readings, which evaluate responsiveness, brain activity, and level of alertness. These methods help healthcare professionals determine the state of consciousness in patients with brain injuries, sleep disorders, or neurological conditions. Although consciousness is complex and not entirely understood, these assessments provide valuable information about brain function and can guide medical decisions.
