Recovery to social and economic independence from prolonged postanoxic vegetative state

E. Shuttleworth, MD

Ohio State University Hospitals, Columbus, OH.

If a patient is still in a vegetative state 1 month after anoxia, the prognosis for recovery is poor. We studied a patient who began to recover 7 weeks after carbon monoxide intoxication. She eventually resumed an independent life as a socially functioning and gainfully employed person.

Address correspondence and reprint requests to Dr. Shuttleworth, 466 West 10th Avenue, Columbus, OH 43210.

Accepted for publication June 24, 1982.
