Due to a lack of published case reports regarding the somatic support of brain dead pregnant patients, each one adds to the limited knowledge that directs care for this patient population. A young woman experienced a cardiac arrest and was subsequently determined to be approximately 20 weeks pregnant following cardio pulmonary resuscitation. Soon after, she was diagnosed as brain dead, but her family chose to keep her supported in hopes of the delivery of a healthy child. She was transferred to our facility, where she was supported after being diagnosed as brain dead for a total of 90 days and delivered a healthy baby boy at almost 32 weeks gestational age. Following delivery, the pregnant patient expired per brain death protocol. The following case report outlines the details of her care and the outcome of our somatic support to share and collaborate with other healthcare professionals caring for this rare patient population.
由于缺乏关于脑死亡孕妇躯体支持的已发表病例报告,每一份此类报告都增加了指导照料这一患者群体的有限知识。一名年轻女性发生心脏骤停,在心肺复苏后被确定怀孕约20周。此后不久,她被诊断为脑死亡,但她的家人选择维持对她的支持,希望能生下一个健康的孩子。她被转至我们的机构,在被诊断为脑死亡后得到了90天的支持,并在孕龄近32周时产下一名健康男婴。分娩后,该孕妇按照脑死亡协议死亡。以下病例报告概述了她的护理细节以及我们躯体支持的结果,以便与照料这一罕见患者群体的其他医疗专业人员分享并开展合作。
