At Can Tho Central General Hospital, patient Nguyen Thi My Dung (1993, Vinh Long province) suffered from septic shock with complications of acute myocarditis and respiratory failure and is being treated at the Intensive Care - Anti-Poison Department.
Previously, the patient was transferred from Vinh Long Provincial General Hospital to Can Tho Central General Hospital at around 20:30 on August 27, 2024 with a high fever for about 3 days, rapid pulse, respiratory failure, the patient quickly progressed to coma, and was on a ventilator.
Through examination, doctors determined that the patient had septic shock with complications of acute myocarditis. The optimal treatment method at this time is ECMO (extracorporeal membrane oxygenation). If delayed, the patient's life is at risk.
Sharing with us, Mr. Tran Minh Be Hai (Ms. Dung's husband) said that his family's circumstances are extremely difficult. Ms. Dung has a sandwich cart on the sidewalk and he works as a porter but his income is unstable. He and his wife have 3 children (the oldest is 12 years old, the twins are 6 years old). Both grandparents work for hire and grow crops.
"My wife and I have an unstable income, so the money we make is only enough to pay for our children's education. Therefore, when we are both sick, we just take medicine to get through it. I didn't expect that my wife would faint that day and I was even more shocked when the doctor announced that my wife was seriously ill. My wife was in a coma for several days. I didn't know what to do. I just hoped for everyone's help so that my wife would get well soon and I could rest assured to take care of our three children," Mr. Be Hai said emotionally.
The Social Work Department of Can Tho General Hospital said that this patient did not have health insurance. For now, the hospital decided to use ECMO intervention and continuous blood filtration to save the patient and the family will take care of the money later.
It is known that as of August 30, 2024, the hospital fee has reached 230 million VND, the family managed to borrow 100 million VND everywhere.
