A member asked:

My mother had a brain surgery she had an tumour in right temporal region. ..she is in ventilation for four days when she will be conscious?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Difficult to say.: Return to consciousness is difficult to predict and is based upon the size and extent of the tumor as well as the extent of surgery and any complications or swelling. Your surgeon is probably in a better place to judge this and to be able to see signs that things are improving.
