脑损伤康复对多学科团队的所有成员来说都是一项复杂而具有挑战性的任务。医学进步使更多严重受损的患者得以存活，因此处于植物人和最低意识状态的患者数量也相应增加。因此，需要循证实践和进一步的研究，证明具体的康复干预措施的效果是必要的。本文回顾了当前关于植物人和最低意识状态患者康复的研究和共识。
Brain injury rehabilitation is a complex and challenging task for all members of the multidisciplinary team. Medical advances have allowed more severely impaired patients to survive and consequently the number of patients in the vegetative and minimally conscious states have proportionately increased. Thus, the need for evidence-based practice and further research demonstrating the effects of specific rehabilitation interventions is required. This article reviews the current research and consensus on rehabilitation for patients in the vegetative and minimally conscious states.
