Hello,
It is still unknown if these external stimuli in cases of deep coma, help in awakening or not. It could be tried since there is a known fact that there is no harm, but the situation seems unpredictable. Get an opinion from the treating Doctor for these issues.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
