Lệ Hà |

A 3-year-old patient is in critical condition after his hat string got caught on a slide and then strangled around his neck.

The child was hospitalized in a state of respiratory failure, respiratory arrest, and cardiac arrest.

Taking the medical history, the family said that the child was playing on the slide in a downward position when unfortunately the child's hood got caught on the side of the slide, the cord inside the hood retracted, causing the child to be held in a suffocating position. After about 10 minutes, the child was discovered in a state of cyanosis and stopped breathing.

Immediately, the child was taken to the nearest medical facility for emergency cardiopulmonary resuscitation and intubation, then transferred to the Emergency and Poison Control Department, National Children's Hospital.

The child was admitted to the hospital in critical condition, comatose, convulsing, and secreting a lot of phlegm through the endotracheal tube. Doctors quickly performed emergency and intensive resuscitation measures to save the child. However, the patient's prognosis is currently very poor, with respiratory failure, multiple organ failure, and the risk of neurological sequelae due to prolonged extra-hospital circulatory arrest causing a lack of oxygen to the brain.
