for patients with cerebral hemorrhage, if the amount of bleeding is particularly large or the bleeding is located in key parts such as the brain stem, it may directly lead to coma or death in severe cases. if the amount of cerebral hemorrhage is more than 50-60ml or the brainstem hemorrhage is more than 5-10ml, these symptoms may occur.

the patient cannot be awakened when he is in a coma. if it is a light coma, various mild reflexes may exist, and the vital signs are still stable. when he enters a deep coma, all physiological reflexes and pathological reflexes disappear, and the vital signs are extremely unstable and may occur at any time. death can occur.
when patients present with this symptom, they are accompanied by brain herniation. observing the patient's pupils can reveal that the pupils are unequal or both pupils are dilated, and the light reflex is slow or completely absent. when pain stimulation is given to patients, relatively mild patients only have slight retraction of their limbs, while severe patients have no response to painful stimulation. after that, the patient's vital signs gradually fluctuate, the breathing rhythm becomes slow or extremely fast, the heartbeat first becomes fast and then slows down, the blood pressure progressively drops, and the oxygen saturation progressively drops. ultimately, if active rescue treatment is not carried out, the patient may die within a short period of time. .
