Do commatose ancestors still deem,hear and surface?




Answers:    For us in the medical professional we use the Glasgow Coma Scale to evaluate and rate the comatose pts:


The Glasgow Coma Scale provides a evaluation in the compass 3-15; patients with score of 3-8 are usually said to be in a coma. The total mark is the sum of the scores within three categories. For adults the score are as follows:

Eye Opening Response Spontaneous--open with blinking at baseline 4 points
Opens to speaking command, speech, or shout 3 points
Opens to pain, not applied to frontage 2 points
None 1 point

Verbal Response Oriented 5 points
Confused conversation, but able to answer question 4 points
Inappropriate responses, words discernible 3 points
Incomprehensible speech 2 points
None 1 point


Motor Response Obeys commands for movement 6 points
Purposeful movement to aching stimulus 5 points
Withdraws from pain 4 points
Abnormal (spastic) flexion, decorticate posture 3 points
Extensor (rigid) response, decerebrate posture 2 points
None 1 point


So a richly comatose patient next to only a win of 3-8 won't be able to enlarge his eyes and blink on command. He might be able to unscrew his eyes only near pain. He won't know how to speak. And he has no motor skills. If any, he might annul to pain beside decorticate or decerebrate posturing. It is still questionable that the comatose pt can and do hear. However, definitely, the logical or thinking process or assimilation of information is gone. The emotional state to pain stimulus is still present even if surrounded by an abnormal cult.

The medical community is clear in its definition of Brain deceased. .Irreversible brain damage and loss of brainstem function, as evidenced by cessation of breathing and other essential reflexes, unresponsiveness to stimuli, malingering of muscle activity, and a flat electroencephalogram for a specific length of time
