The 35-year-old midwife, who was infected in Corona and hospitalized three weeks ago at Beilinson Hospital, has improved. This was reported today (Monday) by the hospital.
As a reminder, the patient was hospitalized in the 31st week of her pregnancy at Laniado Hospital, however following a deterioration in her condition she was transferred to Beilinson, where the medical staff decided to urgently breathe and give birth by caesarean section. She was subsequently hospitalized in critical condition in the Corona Intensive Care Unit.
Dr. Ilya Kagan, director of the Corona Intensive Care Unit at Beilinson, said, “In light of the improvement in her lung function, the midwife was disconnected from the acupressure machine. She is now being resuscitated and anesthetized in a chest-intensive care unit. “
The hospital noted that another Corona patient, a 33-year-old Jerusalem resident who gave birth about a month ago in the 31st week of her pregnancy, is still connected to the Acme machine, but her condition has also gradually improved. Both women have recovered from the virus, and are not hospitalized in the Corona ward. The condition of preterm infants, who are hospitalized prematurely at the Schneider Center for Pediatrics, is improving. It is defined as stable, and they do not need respiration.
