Are all patients in a coma also brain dead?

0

No. Brain death is quite rare. Patients can have severe brain damage or be in a coma, but still have some brain function. Most patients in a coma are not brain dead, and some comatose patients do recover. Patients who are brain dead (whole brain dead and brain-stem dead), on the other hand, have no chance of recovery.
