  4. 4Your patient is a 17 year- old male who sustained a TBI from a motor vehicle accident. Upon entering his room, you call his name and speak loudly asking him to open his eyes. He does not respond. You then pick up his hand and rub his forearm. He does not respond. You proceed to pinch or press firmly on the nail bed of a finger of his right hand. He then opens his eyes and purposefully moves his right UE away from the painful stimulus. To keep his attention, you proceed to talk to him and ask him to talk to you. In response, he groans and does not verbalize any words.
