WHAT CAUSES COMA IN HEAD INJURED PEOPLE?
Frequently Asked QuestionsThe word coma is a Greek word that translates to 'deep sleep', and is currently used to indicate prolonged states of unconsciousness. Coma is a specific neurobehavioral diagnostic term that denotes unarousability (with the absence of sleep/wake cycles on electroencephalogram (EEG) and the loss of the capacity for environmental interaction). The cause typically consists of severe, diffuse bilateral brain damage and/or brain stem injury.
Related QuestionsFrequently Asked Questions About Head InjuryComa in head injured people almost always results from injury to all parts of the brain, not just the brain stem. In very rare circumstances the major portion of the brain is spared and only the brain stem is injured. This may result in prolonged coma with rapid and nearly complete recovery when the head injured person wakes up. In the vast majority of cases, however, prolonged coma implies diffuse injury to all parts of the brain, including the brain stem, and recovery is slow.Related Questions
