Guidelines/Instructions
Anyone who shows ability to obey even simple commands, or utter any word or communicate specifically in any other way is no longer considered to be in the vegetative state. Eye movements are not reliable evidence of meaningful responsiveness. Corroborate with nursing staff. Confirmation of VS requires full assessment as in the Royal College of Physician Guidelines.
