Thiago Medina Awake, Eating, on Nasal Oxygen as Thoracic Wound Cleaning Is Scheduled

Clinicians track day-to-day recovery in intensive care, prioritizing infection prevention through the planned toilette.

Overview

  • Family updates on Oct. 1–2 report a favorable evolution: he is conscious, taking food, and receiving supplemental oxygen via nasal cannula at Hospital Mariano y Luciano de la Vega.
  • The procedure planned for Thursday is a toilette of the thoracic surgical wound, a deep cleaning and possible debridement intended to support healing and reduce infection risk.
  • His sister, Camila Deniz, said he came off the respirator, can speak, and asked about his daughters, with relatives limiting stimuli to avoid setbacks.
  • A new account on Oct. 2 described episodes of confusion and delirium after awakening from a coma, which clinicians cited in coverage as common during neurological recovery.
  • Daniela Celis urged supporters to continue a prayer chain and thanked the medical team, noting she will gradually resume work responsibilities while caring for their children.
