A woman declared dead by a coroner after her husband found her unconscious in bed was being prepared for burial when funeral workers made a shocking discovery – she was alive.
A horrific situation occurred in the Czech Republic when an 88-year-old woman, believed to be dead, was found showing signs of life in her coffin.
As reported by Blesk.cz, the husband of the woman who was believed to be dead contacted the Pilsen rescue service in the hope of helping his wife.
According to the report, the husband told the emergency dispatcher that “she was not moving or breathing.”

Upon arrival of paramedics, the woman was pronounced dead and coroners were dispatched to the scene.
The coroner also confirmed the woman's death and funeral directors were called to transport the body to a casket.
The husband also told Blesk that “the workers moved her into the coffin, and when they were right there in the apartment, in the hallway by the door, they discovered that she was alive.”

An ambulance soon arrived at the scene and the woman was taken to a medical facility.
While this may sound like a scene from a horror movie, a similar rare medical case has already occurred.
According to the Cleveland Clinic, this phenomenon is called the Lazarus effect.
Named after the biblical account of Jesus' raising of Lazarus, this phenomenon is usually seen after CPR is completed.

This usually occurs after the patient's heart has stopped and CPR has been performed.
This medical phenomenon occurs after a patient has been declared clinically dead.
After some time, the patient begins to show signs of life, and these should persist for more than a few seconds.
According to the National Institutes of Health, there have been 74 cases of this phenomenon reported in the United States from 1982 to 2022.
It is still unclear how and why the Lazarus effect occurs.
