What Are The Chances Of Recovery From Damaged Spleen?
My friend was just admitted into the ICU for internal bleeding and liver failure. He lost 75% of his blood and his liver functions continue to fail. He is on a ventilator and in an induced coma. When he passed out at home, he pulled down an armoir on top of him. His stomach lining is gone and he damaged his spleen. What are his chances of recovery?

Hello,
He needs blood transfusion as soon as possible to regain some of the functions. He may need to do surgery as soon as possible and to regain the organ functions.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
