Hi, it’s Patrik Hutzel from intensivecarehotline.com with another quick tip and questions answered for families in intensive care.

So Reggie writes me an email and she says that her 76-year-old mom had a stroke and a seizure. She was found at home and she had trouble breathing on her own, so they called an ambulance and then they suggested putting her on a ventilator but in order to do that, they obviously had to induce her mom into a coma and now the ICU has run several tests and they can’t figure out why she won’t wake up.

She was also diagnosed with dementia last year, and Reggie’s very nervous about her mom’s brain activity, although everything looked fine up to now. Any insight I could give would be great. Thank you in advance.

So Reggie, getting your mother on a ventilator always requires an induced coma. There is no such thing as ventilation with a breathing tube in intensive care without inducing somebody in a coma because it’s very painful, very uncomfortable and the body also needs to rest and it’s the same on the other hand, an induced coma also always requires mechanical ventilation and a breathing tube.

Also dementia, potential seizures and a stroke will delay waking up after an induced coma. It would be good to know if your mom is still on any sedatives such as midazolam or versed or on propofol or diprivan.
