Discussion of treatments for Coma:
Once the patient is out of immediate danger, although
still in coma or vegetative state, the medical care team will concentrate
on preventing infections and maintaining the patient's physical state as
much as possible. Such maintenance includes preventing pneumonia and bed
sores and providing balanced nutrition. Physical therapy may also be used
to prevent contractures (permanent muscular contractions) and orthopedic
deformities that would limit recovery for the patients who emerge from
coma.
