| Core Tip |
We report a case in which hydrogen (H2) gas inhalation promoted the recovery of an 11-year-old boy with persistent vegetative state (PVS) caused by severe intracerebral bleeding in the left hemisphere following anticoagulation treatment. The patient‘s PVS severity showed no notable improvement after a 2-mo routine neuroprotection treatment and rehabilitation. Surprisingly, the patient’s orientation, consciousness, ability to speak, facial expressions, and locomotor function were significantly restored, after high-concentration H2 gas inhalation treatment. This case indicates that inhalation of H2 may be an effective intervention candidate for patients with loss of consciousness. |
