A member asked:
Health: when a patient is put into a semi-coma can it affect the brain?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possible: It is possible, but the reason that they are going into a coma is usually more concerning than being placed in the coma medically. If they are being out into a coma, then it will generally be a serious condition.
