I am going to watch videos but wanted to touch on the coma topic. Alot of patients are actually heavily sedated and put in an induced coma initially to enhance healing in the ICU's, I have thought alot about how the less traumatic TBI's are not properly rested and thus have more healing problems. This seeems to be so so important and only makes sense. I know this seems extreme but I have often thought my son would have been better off if he was put into a general anesthesis state like you are in surgery for a few days and then gradually awakened and this would of prevented alot of our troubles. This is just a random thought!!
