Happiness knows no bounds when we witness a miraculous recovery! Join us in celebrating the success story of our patient who faced a challenging case of P. Falciparum Malaria who came in respiratory arrest state, immediately put on ventilator, turned out to be Babesiosis, guided back to health by the expertise of Dr. Vitrag Shah and his amazing team. 🎉

Complicated Babesiosis /Falciparum Malaria with respiratory arrest with pulmonary edema - One more Life saved!

81 yr old NRI female patient, admitted in private hospital in small town with Complicated P.Falciparum Malaria, developed Low BP and low oxygen level, after 6 days shifted to Velocity Hospital under Dr Vitrag Shah , on the way just before reaching patient became unconscious and laboured breathing and on arrival was in respiratory arrest, resuscitation done by Dr Vitrag Shah & ICU Team and taken on ventilator, removed ventilator in day 3, shifted to ward on day 4, removed oxygen on day 5 & discharged on day 6 in absolutely stable condition with normal oxygen.

Interesting thing in this case was patient was already treated for malaria but was not improving so antimalarial treatment was stopped after 3 days at first hospital and on arrival at velocity hospital, on smear P.Falciparum malaria ring form +3 were there and standard treatment (Inj artesunate + IV clindamycin) was started, malarial antigen and PCR (PCR & antigen both tested in two labs) both were negative, patient had history of travel from USA 1 month back and feverish and low appetite since a month on retrospective history, so babesiosis was suspected, peripheral smear was reviewed by 4 different pathologist and all were in favour of malaria but as antigen and PCR both were negative and travel history of USA and delayed response of antimalarial treatment (which can work in babesiosis as well), We considered it can be Babesiosis which was not recognized early and due to incomplete treatment patient was not improving earlier. So this case highlights the importance of checking malarial pcr and antigen in malaria cases where gametocytes are not visible and travel history to africa/US, particularly if Malarial parasite is not cleared after 72 hours of treatment and high index of suspicion of babesiosis as it requires clindamycin/azithromycin along with artesunate/quinine.
