0 in a coma
1 (of a person) unconscious and not able to wake up, usually because of illness or injury:
When compiling the records of activity all comatose and deadflieswere naturally left out of account.
Following the injury, the man was comatose for 10 days, remained in critical condition for another two weeks and then recovered.
Only patients who were deeply comatose did not receive such treatment.
He was comatose by the time he was carried to the tent.
All the hoppers were comatose and none was seen in the act of feeding.
The irregularities in the curves towards the extremes of temperature are probably due to the fact that here the flies are comatose, or nearly so.
Patient 1 was admitted in a febrile comatose state of unexplained origin.
Sometimes it is argued that anencephalics or the permanently comatose lack actual moral worth but have symbolic worth.
