Coma

Coma is a critical condition in which a person does not respond to external stimuli and cannot breathe independently. Coma occurs as a result of various reasons, such as injury, poisoning, infection, brain disease and others. In this state, the person's brain continues to work, but its functioning is greatly slowed down.

Coma can have varying degrees of severity. A mild degree of coma is characterized by the fact that the patient can respond to calls to him, open his eyes and monitor what is happening. However, he cannot speak or move. In a severe coma, the patient is unconscious, not breathing on his own, and nutrients are administered intravenously. There is also a coma with respiratory arrest -
