comatose patients

A comatose patient is someone who is unconscious and cannot respond to their environment, including sounds, touch, or pain. This state results from severe disruption to brain functions caused by injury, illness, or other medical conditions. During a coma, the brain's ability to process sensory information and generate responses is significantly diminished, but some brain activity may still occur. Patients may be monitored closely, and their condition can range from temporary to more prolonged states, with recovery depending on the underlying cause and extent of brain injury.
