Hi,
An intra-pontine bleed generally carries a poor prognosis and the prognosis can vary depending on the level of consciousness at presentation, size of bleed, location of bleed within the pons, and extension of bleed into the nearby structures. Usually, an intra-pontine bleed may lead to a condition called "Locked-in-syndrome" where patient's mind is said to be locked within his body, that is, he cannot move his body(except for vertical eye movements) but he can hear and understand what is happening around him.
If he is moving randomly, it could be an incomplete locked in syndrome
where some of the motor activities are preserved.
Physiotherapy has been found to be helpful in some cases for improvement of muscle power. For further detailed assessment of his chances of waking up and further prognosis, please provide the
CT scan reports. You may also consult his
neurologist who can clinically assess him as well and give you an expert opinion in this case.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Please let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr Devi Venugopal Rita, Internal medicine specialist
