Suggest Treatment For Stage 4 Emphysema

My mom has stage 4 emphysema and is the hospital. She had a panic attack and could not breathe. They put tube down her throat and said they put her to sleep until they can check her lung status in the morning. ( I am sure more to it) Is that putting her in a coma? If not what is the difference of putting her to sleep and coma. Thank you
