Abstract

Previously we assessed awareness in a participant, diagnosed minimally conscious (MC), using an EEGbased sensorimotor rhythm (SMR) brain-computer interface (BCI). Here we describe a follow up study conducted over 2 intensive training phases, involving visual feedback and stereo auditory feedback (pink noise and music samples). The participant performed significantly above chance on most runs. Although both feedback modalities produce similar performance, auditory feedback is most suitable for this participant due the uncertainty of the participant’s ability to follow visual cues and feedback. Stereo musical feedback is demonstrated for the first time.
