In Poland, Coma Day is celebrated annually on April 18. This date is dedicated to raising awareness of the condition of patients in a coma or minimally conscious state, as well as supporting their families and the medical staff who care for them.

A coma is a state of profound unconsciousness caused by brain damage due to trauma, stroke, infection or other causes. Patients in a coma often require:

- Constant care, including tube feeding and prevention of complications.
- Comprehensive rehabilitation aimed at stimulating brain activity and returning to a minimally conscious state.

Coma Day in Poland is an opportunity to draw attention to a problem that often goes unnoticed. It reminds society of the importance of support, empathy and efforts to help those in this difficult condition.
