[Coma, dream and thinking: a semiotic approach].
The notion of "frontier-dream", with a high perceptive direct content, is defined from accounts of dream experienced during coma. Then, from discussions with nursing-team working in units for comatose patients in a wakeful state, a protocol is proposed based on semiotic and psychoanalytical factors which aims at ensuring the global care of the comatose patient considered as a person.
