The Pope at Gemelli: clinical condition remains stable
He has alternated non-invasive mechanical ventilation with long periods of high-flow oxygen therapy, has continued to feed himself and has undergone respiratory physiotherapy
The Holy See Press Office reported on the evening of March 1 that “the Holy Father’s clinical condition remains stable. He alternated non-invasive mechanical ventilation with long periods of high-flow oxygen therapy, always maintaining a good response to gas exchange.”
It also indicated to the press that “the Holy Father is afebrile and does not present leucocytosis. His hemodynamic parameters have always remained stable; he has continued to feed himself and has regularly undergone respiratory physiotherapy, actively cooperating. He has not had any episodes of bronchospasm.”
“The Holy Father is always vigilant and oriented. In the afternoon he received the Eucharist and then dedicated himself to prayer. The prognosis remains reserved.”
