Pinamar UTV Crash: 8-Year-Old Critical but Clinically Stable After Two Surgeries

Doctors await minimum hemodynamic stability to assess a safe transfer to a pediatric specialty center.

Overview

  • The hospital’s latest update says the child remains in intensive care in a clinically stable yet critical condition under inotropic support with no new complications reported.
  • He underwent two operations for intra-abdominal bleeding with a hepatic rupture and large-vessel involvement, and surgeons replaced the hepatic packing.
  • Since returning from surgery he has not needed a blood transfusion, though he received plasma, and today’s lab results will inform ongoing management.
  • A transfer to higher-complexity pediatric care will be considered once minimum stability is achieved, and he does not yet meet criteria for transport.
  • Relatives appealed for blood donors and reported a strong local response, and the grandmother said another operation could proceed if his condition holds.
