position in patients with real coma. Roving
eye movements cannot be imitated and their presence indicates true
coma. In contrast, voluntary saccadic eye movements seen in feigned
coma are usually faster and briskly with a well-defined endpoint.
Pseudocoma patients may respond with purposeful movement to painful
stimulation and avoid unpleasant stimuli such as a nasal tickle. The
presence of nystagmus during cold caloric testing suggests that coma
is either feigned or hysterical, because nystagmus requires an intact
cerebral cortex and brainstem. Additionally, cold water caloric
stimulation is noxious and can induce nausea and vomiting, or
awakening in patients with psychogenic coma."

with pseudocoma do not often hit their face when dropped. However, the
diagnostic validity of this kind of self-protection sign has not been
evaluated convincingly. Furthermore, unethical provocative maneuvers,
such as dropping alcohol in the nostrils or olfactory stimulation
using ammonium, should not be used to induce responsiveness in
patients deemed to be in feigned coma."

extremely rare in real life. Fugue state normally resolves with time,
particularly with the help of therapy."
