[en] The neurologic unit of the Academic Hospital of Liège is composed of 30 beds. This is one of reference's centers for detection and differentiation of the comatose patients. With the mediatization of the Pr S. Laureys's findings, our reference's center accommodate more and more comatose patients from different European countries. With the arrival and the increase of these comatose patients, the nurses had the feeling of an increase workload by report to all others neurologic patients. The purpose of this overview is initially to be able to measure the nursing workload among comatose patients and to demonstrate that this one, within a neurology unit of an academic Belgian hospital, is heavier than that of other patients suffering from neurologic affections.
