| Resumen: |
Our purpose was to investigate the influence of several factors in the manifestation of impaired awareness following brain injury. We focused on the following factors, at one side the brain injury hemispheric side (right or left) and its neuroanatomical location, and on the other hand, the relation between initial severity and time post-injury. Participants were 86 patients with brain injury and their relatives recruited from the Brain Damage Unity, Beata M.a Ana de Jesús Hospital. All of them were administered the questionnaire «patient competency rating scale». Assessment data showed that 66% of the patients perceived their behavioural abilities as more effective than their families' valuation. Lack of awareness did not correlate with injury location, but so with injury initial severity, sustaining after the following year. ResumenSe investigó la influencia de distintos factores en la manifestación de falta de conciencia de los déficit tras sufrir un daño cerebral. Los factores estudiados fueron localización hemisférica de la lesión (derecha e izquierda) y localización anatómica de la lesión, por un lado y la relación de la severidad inicial de la lesión y el tiempo transcurrido desde el daño cerebral, por otro. Ochenta y seis pacientes de la Unidad de Daño Cerebral del Hospital Beata M.a Ana y sus familiares rellenaron el cuestionario «Índice de Competencia del Paciente». Los resultados mostraron que un sesenta y seis por ciento de los pacientes puntuaban como más eficaces sus competencias conductuales frente a la valoración de sus familiares. No parece existir una relación con la localización anatómica específica de la lesión, pero si con la severidad inicial de la lesión, manteniéndose dicha alteración transcurrido el primer año.AbstractOur purpose was to investigate the influence of several factors in the manifestation of impaired awareness following brain injury.
