Changes in breathing patterns, such as prolonged apneic periods and the 'death rattle', are indicators of imminent death.

“Um often times you get apnneic, so long periods of no breath at all. um you often hear something that's so it's like a frightful phrase, but the death rattle um so which often is sort of a a um a gurgling sound with breathing. That's just because your your oral ferings is no longer the reflexes are dying out. So you're no longer moving fluids as they pull in the back of your throat, which is an important note there. If your if your reflexes are no longer functioning, you're not likely feeling it. So a death rattle sounds pretty gnarly. It's but it's generally probably harder for the audience than the person dying.”
