In addition to obvious therapeutic targets, ICU staff has to control the psycho-emotional conditions of COVID-19 patients, e.g. intensive care unit syndrome and post-intensive care syndrome. Case presentation: Patient M., Uzbek, 24 years old, gravida 1 (27 weeks) was admitted to the Maternity Department of Zangiota hospital on 19.07.2021 with the diagnosis of extremely severe COVID-19 pneumonia and respiratory failure with psychomotor agitation. On day 4 her general condition deteriorated due to the progression of pneumonia and involvement of abdominal organs associated with 27-week pregnancy. On that day the fetus had no signs of life, and the caesarean delivery was performed;the child was stillborn. For the next two weeks the patient had been in medical coma due to the progression of respiratory and multi-organ failure. The patient had two separate cardiac arrests. Cardio-pulmonary resuscitation was successful. By day 20, the dynamics of her cardiac activity has been completely restored. The brain function restored to 15 on the Glasgow Coma Scale. Conclusion: Special measures of prevention and treatment of multi-organ failure, intensive care unit syndrome and post-intensive care syndrome should be taken in an ICU for pregnant women with COVID-19 pneumonia.展开更多
