How do people in Comas eat?
Someone in a coma needs intensive care in hospital. They may need help with breathing. They will be fed through a tube and they will receive blood and fluids through a drip inserted into their vein. The patient is unable to respond to touch, sound, and other stimuli. It is also rare for someone in a coma to cough, sneeze, or communicate in any way. Some can breathe on their own, although many who are in a coma require a machine to help them breathe.
