Auditory localization should be considered as a sign of consciousness, as unresponsive patients who demonstrate this behaviour show increased brain activity and better outcomes, comparable to patients in minimally conscious state.

The process of end-of-life decision-making for patients with disorders of consciousness should include caregivers in bedside assessments and integrate advanced diagnostic brain imaging techniques when available.
