Although Patient Five, who had been in a deep coma, woke up, the results of his examination were somewhat grim.
While all four of his limbs responded to stimuli and his sight, hearing, and sense of smell were intact, his cognitive function remained at an extremely low level. 'He's practically a simpleton,' and his speech was so slurred that no words were discernible.
In his assessment of the situation, Yan Feifan concluded that the cognitive information pathways passing through the brainstem had been severely damaged.
Yan Feifan didn't hold out much hope for the extent of Patient Five's future recovery.
Of course, his waking up once again confirmed the effectiveness of the infrasound resonance stimulation therapy, so Yan Feifan was still quite pleased.
Patient Five would remain in his ward at the Little Red House for a month of close observation. If no other negative side effects were found, he could go home or be transferred to the neurology department to rest and recover.
