The details of the last days of Irina Miroshnichenko became known. Recall that the Soviet actress died at the age of 81 in Moscow. The legendary beauty of Soviet cinema spent the last days of her life in the intensive care unit of the Moscow Hospital for Infectious Diseases. It was reported that she was hospitalized there on July 30 in serious condition with influenza. Doctors put Irina Miroshnichenko into a medically induced coma, but were unable to save the actress’s life. She passed away on August 3.
It all started with a cold
A medical source told Mash: “The cause of death is multiple organ failure due to septic shock.”
In other words, sepsis, as a result of which all organs failed, and tissues passed almost no oxygen. The diagnosis is similar to that given by doctors to Olympic champion Roman Kostomarov. They fought for his life for six months. He survived thanks to a miracle, an athletic body and a relatively young age.
Irina Miroshnichenko had a severe infection complicated by concomitant diseases. When one overlaps the other, especially at 81, don’t expect anything good.
It all started with a common cold. Since the beginning of the year, she had been sick with bronchitis, which then subsided, and then flared up again. In the last two weeks, the bronchitis turned into pneumonia.
Prolonged treatment in a private clinic.
Now her colleagues say: if she went to the doctor immediately… She did. And regularly. As a close friend of Irina Miroshnichenko told KP.RU, she was treated in a private medical clinic, which our famous artists love so much. Unfortunately, we believe that if she paid the money, she will definitely be cured. But there they did not cope with the treatment. She was in the hospital for two weeks at which time an infectious process developed in her lungs.
When it became clear that they could not save her in a private clinic, they sent her to a public one. But what could the doctors there do when she had already started sepsis? Nothing. Irina Miroshnichenko spent a few more days in intensive care in a medically induced coma. And that is.
