Open Mouth Symptom

The open mouth symptom is a phenomenon when the half-open mouth of an unconscious patient changes its degree of opening synchronously with breathing. This symptom can be observed in apoplectic or epileptic coma.

Apoplexy, or stroke, is a disorder of blood circulation in the brain that can lead to loss of consciousness and decreased respiratory function. Epileptic coma occurs as a result of a series of convulsive seizures that can lead to breathing problems and loss of consciousness.

An open mouth sign indicates serious respiratory distress and may indicate a medical emergency. If you notice this symptom in a patient, you must immediately call an ambulance and provide him with access to fresh air.

In addition, the open mouth symptom may occur with other respiratory disorders such as obstructive sleep apnea or facial trauma. In such cases, medical attention is also necessary to diagnose and treat the cause of this symptom.

In conclusion, the open mouth symptom is a serious sign of respiratory distress and requires immediate medical attention. If you notice this symptom in a patient, you must immediately call an ambulance and provide him with access to fresh air.
