Practically, the patient’s lungs could no longer carry out the gas exchange between carbon dioxide and oxygen, and the result was a drastic reduction in breathing capacity. The greatest danger was the occurrence of organ failure, followed by death. She was immediately intubated and mechanically ventilated.The patient, a 40-year-old woman from a town near Timisoara, had an acute, contagious infectious disease, the AH1N1 flu.
Because her health worsened, the Intensive Care team, led by ATI primary doctor Mirela Porosnicu, decided to connect the patient to an “artificial lung”, ECMO, which provides extracorporeal oxygenation.
