abstract="In spite of optimal emergency treatment, critical care and early neurorehabilitation patients with acquired brain damage may die or remain in permanent vegetative state. In all treatment settings a number of life- prolonging treatment decisions have to be made and the consensus-building process puts a great strain on the attending physician and the patient's family or guardian.

Own guidelines need to be developed in accordance with established principles.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
