but because of serious smoke inhalation, coma was induced. While not a standard protocol, an induced coma can be considered for severe smoke inhalation, particularly if the patient's airway is compromised or they are experiencing neurological complications like seizures. It's not a primary treatment, but a measure to protect the brain and provide time for the lungs to heal.

The article didn't give any other details other than it was serious. Hate to see these types of things happen to anyone and especially these young athletes.
