QUÉ SIGNIFICA COMA EN INGLÉS

Coma

Coma

En medicina, el coma es un estado de inconsciencia que dura más de seis horas, en el cual una persona: no puede ser despertada; Falla en responder normalmente a los estímulos dolorosos, la luz o el sonido; Carece de un ciclo normal sueño-vigilia; Y, no inicia acciones voluntarias. Una persona en estado de coma es descrita como comatosa. Una persona comatosa muestra una ausencia completa de vigilia y es incapaz de sentir, hablar, oír o moverse conscientemente. Para que un paciente mantenga la conciencia, dos importantes componentes neurológicos deben funcionar. La primera es la corteza cerebral, la materia gris que cubre la capa externa del cerebro. La otra es una estructura ubicada en el tronco encefálico, llamada sistema de activación reticular. Una lesión a cualquiera o ambos de estos componentes es suficiente para hacer que un paciente experimente un coma. La corteza cerebral es un grupo de "materia gris" apretada y densa, compuesta por el núcleo de las neuronas cuyos axones forman la "materia blanca", y es responsable de la percepción, del relé de la entrada sensorial a través de la vía talámica y de muchos Otras funciones neurológicas, incluyendo el pensamiento complejo.

In medicine, a coma is a state of unconsciousness lasting more than six hours, in which a person: cannot be awakened; fails to respond normally to painful stimuli, light, or sound; lacks a normal sleep-wake cycle; and, does not initiate voluntary actions. A person in a state of coma is described as being comatose. A comatose person exhibits a complete absence of wakefulness and is unable to consciously feel, speak, hear, or move. For a patient to maintain consciousness, two important neurological components must function. The first is the cerebral cortex—the gray matter that covers the outer layer of the brain. The other is a structure located in the brainstem, called reticular activating system. Injury to either or both of these components is sufficient to cause a patient to experience a coma. The cerebral cortex is a group of tight, dense, "gray matter" composed of the nucleus of the neurons whose axons then form the "white matter", and is responsible for perception, relay of the sensory input via the thalamic pathway, and many other neurological functions, including complex thinking.
