There are no changes in the condition of the Olympic champion in ice dancing Roman Kostomarov, who was admitted to intensive care with pneumonia, Oksana Domnina, the figure skater’s wife, told RBC.
“The novel is still in the same state,” Domnina said.
January 14 Domnina refuted information “RIA Novosti” that the health of 45-year-old Kostomarov has deteriorated and pneumonia is progressing into a bilateral one. According to Domnina, Kostomarov remained in a stable, serious condition.
Skater since January 10 is at the Kommunarka Clinical Center. “RIA Novosti” and TASS citing sources, they reported that he was connected to an ECMO (extracorporeal membrane oxygenation) machine, which is used in the development of severe respiratory failure. It was also reported that Kostomarov had unilateral pneumonia and influenza.
Kostomarov, in a duet with Tatyana Navka, won the Turin Games, the 2004 and 2005 World Championships, and also won three European Championships.
