How Long Does It Take To Recover From An Induced Coma?
A loved one was in a bad car accident and was placed in an induced coma. I have been alerted that his sedatives have been stopped and his blood pressure medication reduced as well as two tubes taken out of his chest. How long does it usually take for someone to awake?
