  • Italy - Chieti: Three deaths in a few hours for high fever

    LAUNCH. Very high fever, and within a few hours, death. There are three cases of death for likely hyperthermia in recent days: two in Lanciano, of two respondents who did not find a place in the resuscitation of the San Pio Hospital and were transferred to Renzetti, and one at the Chieti polyclinic. Three patients with the same symptoms, ie high fever, fatigue, loss of consciousness, resistance to any therapy made to lower body temperature and then death.
    The woman, according to the first investigation, felt bad Sunday evening, August 6th. He began to accuse fatigue, then the very high fever was reached; He lost consciousness. It was so carried by family members at the San Pio Hospital in Vasto. His condition, however, has deteriorated hour by hour to coma. There were no seats in the resuscitation department of the garrison and therefore, at 5:10 on Monday, the woman was taken, already intubated and sedated, to Lanciano. Here he died the evening at 22.50. Every attempt to save it has been useless. He would not react to the therapies to lower the temperature, the refrigerated blankets, the ice. Nothing. The fever reached 42.8, then dropped slightly to 42.3, to rise again and cause the death of the woman.

    Also because the death of D'Aloisio follows that of a woman of San Salvo who has had the same course: I come to Renzetti da Vasto in coma, with very high fever and death in a few hours. But the picture of San Salvo's woman was much more complex, having also several basic pathologies.

    But the autopsy did not reveal the causes of D'Aloisio's death. It was a "white autopsy": that is, macroscopic levels did not reveal obvious causes, pathological elements that could address the doctor to a diagnosis, give precise answers. Dr. Falco then carried out tissue and liquid tests for histological and toxicological tests, the response of which would take 60 days. Assisting the autopsy also an expert appointed by the D'Aloisio family.
