This depends on what the patient's pathology is, and how dependent on the life support equipment they are for sustaining life. There have been rare cases where, once removed from the life support equipment, the patient started breathing and eventually recovered to a point where they didn't need the life support equipment to survive. More often, mortality occurs minutes, hours or days after disconnect. Again, it depends on the patient.

Morphine may be administered to someone being taken off life support to manage pain and alleviate discomfort during the process.

Additionally, morphine can help ensure a peaceful transition, allowing the patient to pass away with dignity. Ultimately, the goal is to prioritize comfort and quality of life in their final moments.
