Hi, Thank you for posting your query. Based on your symptoms, it seems as though your friend has suffered severe brain injury. The answer regarding the outcome can be given, if you can upload his CT scan brain report. A person can be kept on ventilator for a long period of time. Another aspect is to see whether he had breathing problems leading to hypoxic injury to brain (leading to brain damage). Please get back if you require any additional information.
