Dutch term

omgevingsbewustzijn

Dutch to English Medical Medical: Health Care
Bij sommige mensen die door een beroerte worden getroffen, treedt een vroegtijdig herstel op van het omgevingsbewustzijn, oftewel het gewaarworden van de directe fysieke omgeving. "Situational awareness" werd afgeschoten, weet iemand een betere?

environmental awareness

I think this is the term you're searching for.

Disorders of consciousness (DOC) include coma, vegetative state (VS) and minimally conscious state (MCS). Coma is a condition of unarousability with a complete absence of wakefulness and awareness, whereas VS is characterized by a lack of awareness despite a preserved wakefulness. Patients in coma are unconscious because they lack both wakefulness and awareness. Patients in a VS are unconscious because, although they are wakeful, they lack awareness. Patients in a MCS show minimal but definite behavioural evidence of self and environmental awareness.

situational awareness (SA)

"Sometimes symptoms of a stroke are difficult to identify. Unfortunately, the lack of situational awareness spells disaster. The stroke victim may suffer severe brain damage when people nearby fail to recognize the symptoms of a stroke ."

sensorium

early recovery of sensorium

je zegt dat "situational awareness" werd afgeschoten, dan is dit wellicht een alternatief
wel een term die in de medische wereld wordt gebruikt

sensorium
- het 'centrum' of de 'zetel' van het gevoels- en waarnemingsvermogen
- het bewustzijn

Pinkhof

A "clouded sensorium" is a medical term used to describe an inability to think clearly or concentrate. It is associated with a huge variety of underlying causes from drug induced states to pathogenic states induced by disease or mineral deficiency.

awareness

Volgens mij wordt hier gewoon awareness bedoeld (Alexander Sack)

"De Maastrichtse psycholoog en neurowetenschapper dr. Alexander Sack, werkzaam voor de Faculty of Psychology and Neuroscience, heeft een prestigieuze Europese subsidie van 1,4 miljoen euro in de wacht gesleept voor onderzoek naar de oorzaken van het herstel van het omgevingsbewustzijn na een beroerte."

En van zijn eigen site:
What will the next step be?
“We’ll continue researching the compensation techniques of the brain until 2012, when my Vidi grant runs out. In particular I’d like to examine people who show signs of ‘neglect’ after having a stroke. For example, if a certain region in the left hemisphere is affected, they show no awareness of the ‘right’ side of the world."
