摘要：
We present three cases of serious multidrug intoxications with absent brainstem reflexes that may imply diagnostic and prognostic challenges. Given the good neurological outcome in these patients and of earlier described cases in the literature, the absence of brainstem reflexes in intoxication is not necessarily a sign of a poor prognosis and should be used with caution in prognostication.
