Hypoglycemia ,hyperglycemia, hyperketonemia hyper uremia, are some of the metabolic states causing homeostatic imbalance causing coma. Myxedema coma is caused by severe hypothyroidism. In all these comatose states feedback systems have actually failed.
In coma caused by trauma and poisoning a homeostatic profile helps doctors to correct any defective biofeedback mechanisms
