Actually, no. You can die WHILE you're in a coma -- but you may also recover completely.
A coma is "simply" an unresponsive, unconscious state of indeterminate period. There are a lot of unknowns in this question (how old is the person; what was their health prior to entering the coma; was there a likely cause; etc). A person may or may not "come out" of a coma (i.e., become responsive and conscious again) -- but I believe (and I'm not a doctor, so I defer to medical opinion) that the longer a person is in a coma, the less likely that they will leave that state, or that they will be brain-damaged when they do.
But if you're asking about someone you know or love, please don't ask here. Talk to a medical professional who knows all the details of the case.

∙ 9y agoSister Aruna Shanbaug from India has been in coma from 27th November 1973. She has been under care of the nursing staff of KEM hospital Mumbai. This is the notable example of proper nursing care by sisters over the decades.

∙ 12y agomy mother-in law has been sugar coma since last saturday they she has no brain function her HR is at 145 and RR is 40-45 they say she has an blood infection what is going to happen
Wiki User
∙ 15y agowelll am sry but no one knows but only god doctors dont know but they can give an estimation when he/she might wake up
Wiki User
∙ 14y agoit depends how serious the injury was that the person the longest time for someone to stay in a coma is about 1 to 2 years

What phase required the longest time for completion?
Interphase takes the longest to complete
Which phase of mitosis requires the next largest time for completion?
The longest time is interphase. The next largest time for completion is prophase. The shortest amount of time for completion is telophase.
Which phase of mitosis takes the longest time period?
Prophase.
What stage in mitosis does cell spend the most time in?
MitosisIntroductionThere are five main phases of Mitosis, plus one that is included to certain cell types.They are listed in order from:InterphaseProphaseMetaphaseAnaphaseTelophaseCytokinesisPrecursor to MitosisBefore mitosis is the phase in the cell cycle called interphase. This takes up 78% of the time in a cell's division cycle, and is the longest phase in the cycle.Interphase consists of the three subphases called G1, Synthesis, and G2.Prophase14% of the time in a cell's cycle is spent in the prophase.This is the second longest phase in the cell cycle, but the longest phase in actual mitosis. In prophase, the DNA supercoils into chromosomes, the nuclear membrane breaks down, and the centrioles move towards the opposite poles of the cell. The spindle microtubules also assemble.Metaphase4% of the time in a cell's cycle is spent in the metaphase.In metaphase, the spindle microtubules then attach to the centromeres of the chromosomes and the chromosomes then line up along the equator of the cell.Anaphase0.8% of the time in a cell's cycle is spent in the anaphase.This is the shortest phase in the cell cycle. In anaphase, the spindle microtubules shorten, the sister chromatids (two individual chromosomes paired and attached at the centromere) split into two identical chromosomes. The chromosomes are then pulled to the opposite poles of the cell proportionately.TelophaseRoughly 3% of the time in a cell's cycle is spent in the telophase.In the telophase, the chromosomes then unwind at their poles, the spindle microtubules break down, and the nuclear membrane reforms.Cytokinesis (Not a separate phase)Cytokinesis occurs at the end of the cycle, but is not actually a phase. This step either occurs during telophase or never occurs at all, in which case the cell fails to divide. In cytokinesis, the cytoplasm divides into two.

Is coma can be detected after death?
No, death pretty much trumps coma...a person won't be in a coma after they die. You might have some evidence, in the form of bedsores and wasting, that the person had lingered in a coma if the coma persisted for some extended time prior to death. .
