A 40-year-old mother of seven underwent prolonged resuscitation after suffering a rare, life-threatening complication during childbirth at Mayanei Hayeshua Medical Center in Bnei Brak. Her baby daughter was successfully delivered and is in good condition.

The woman, who had no known underlying medical conditions, suffered an amniotic fluid embolism, a rare and unpredictable obstetric emergency that can cause sudden cardiovascular collapse.

A senior multidisciplinary medical team at Mayanei Hayeshua immediately began extensive resuscitation efforts, working to save the mother’s life as her condition became critical.

During the emergency treatment, doctors connected the woman to an ECMO machine, which temporarily supports heart and lung function by circulating and oxygenating blood outside the body.

Following the emergency intervention, the mother was transferred to the intensive care unit at Sheba Medical Center in Tel Hashomer for continued treatment.

Despite the severe medical emergency, doctors successfully delivered her baby daughter, who remains in good condition under medical observation at Mayanei Hayeshua.

The public is asked to daven for the complete recovery of Miriam Bracha bas Chana (מרים ברכה בת חנה).
