hiI am AnilMy maasi(Aunt) is 42 years old and she is having hypoxic brain Injury due to acute respiratory failure and she is on a ventilatory support. She was on support initially for 15days and was off venti for 07days but then the tube was blocked and she had effortful breathing since yesterday so she was put on venti back yesterdayI want to know the prognosis as she is not etting her consciousness since last 25days..Please help rest all her parametres are fine
Prognosis in such patients is guarded and considering ventilator dependence in this case seems to be poor. Some patients do recover esp those with minimal hypoxic brain damage. And those don't improve by 3 months, land into vegetative state. Mail me imaging findings. Hope my answer will help you. Take care.don't forget to rate me.
