Hanging is one of the most common methods of suicide in India in which death of the individual occurs instantaneously. However, a few cases have been reported in literature in which death has occurred after a certain period of time or the patient has survived after prolonged resuscitative measures. A case of a 20-year-old female is described who survived for nine days after hanging, remaining unconscious throughout in the hospital. She died due to cerebral damage caused by cerebral anoxia.
在印度，上吊是最常见的自杀方式之一，个体通常会即刻死亡。然而，文献中曾报道过一些案例，个体在一段时间后才死亡，或者经过长时间的复苏措施后患者存活了下来。本文描述了一例20岁女性的病例，她上吊后存活了九天，在医院期间一直昏迷不醒。她因脑缺氧导致脑损伤而死亡。
