Patient Hoang Van H., 30 years old, is the main breadwinner of a poor family in Dong Di village, Kien Thiet commune, Yen Son district, one of the poorest communes in Tuyen Quang province. His wife is currently unemployed, and they have two young children.
His family's already difficult life became even worse when, more than two weeks ago, he suddenly developed a high fever, shortness of breath, and coughed up blood.
Mr. Hoat was admitted to Tuyen Quang Provincial General Hospital and then immediately transferred to the National Lung Hospital with an extremely critical diagnosis: respiratory failure, septic shock, hemoptysis, severe pneumonia complicated by ARDS, and acute kidney failure.
With extremely low blood oxygen levels despite maximum mechanical ventilation support, the prognosis for survival is only a matter of hours.

The patient's life is in critical condition due to severe complications from pneumonia. |
The on-call team at the National Lung Hospital immediately implemented ECMO and continuous hemodialysis techniques, along with other special care measures, in a very short time. However, the cost of these techniques in the intensive care of critically ill patients is quite high, exceeding the family's ability to pay.
The application of the most advanced techniques by the medical team has given the patient a chance to live. After 10 days of treatment, the patient was able to breathe ambient air on their own, respiratory indicators stabilized, and they were discharged from the hospital on October 10, 2024.
Besides the hospital's efforts, thanks to the support and appeals from the Social Work and Communications Department, philanthropists have joined hands to help his family overcome difficulties and focus on treatment.
