A woman in her 40s, with no prior medical conditions, developed a rare and life-threatening amniotic fluid embolism during childbirth at Mayanei Hayeshua Medical Center in Bnei Brak. The complication necessitated a prolonged resuscitation effort.
Due to the severity of her condition, medical teams from Sheba Medical Center were called to the scene to connect her to an ECMO machine, a device not available at Mayanei Hayeshua, which provides external support for heart and lung functions. Following connection to the ECMO, the mother was transferred to the intensive care unit at Sheba for further treatment. Sources indicate her condition is now considered very critical.
The baby was successfully delivered and is reported to be in good condition, remaining at Mayanei Hayeshua for ongoing care and observation.
Dr. Chagit Deutsch, an expert in women's medicine, explained that amniotic fluid embolism is a rare obstetric complication where amniotic fluid or fetal material enters the mother's bloodstream, potentially triggering a severe reaction that can lead to rapid organ system collapse, requiring resuscitation and intensive care. She noted it is an unpredictable complication that is usually impossible to identify in advance.
Dr. Haim David, director of the maternity and delivery room department at Hillel Yaffe Medical Center, added that survivors often experience memory loss of the traumatic event and may face long-term consequences, including neurological damage.
