Dreams & Hallucinations
Many ARDS patients have reported experiencing very vivid,
intense dreams while in a coma. The nature of these
dreams vary. Sometimes they can serve to reassure,
comfort and soothe the patient. At other times they
provoke anxiety, fear, even terror. Some are more like
hallucinations. Others actually seem to be near-death
experiences. Whatever their nature, one thing they have
in common--they seem all too real.

patients. These have been categorized as follows:
