“My family is all I have. His situation is not good at all. We just found out he needed to be intubated quickly,” he lamented. OR Stadium contacted the hospital for an update on the singer’s health.
According to a press release, he is sedated and his state of health is serious: “Patient Marcio André presented cardiorespiratory arrest yesterday, requiring cardiac support by means of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation. He is currently sedated, on mechanical ventilation and haemodialysis. His condition is serious but stable.”
ECMO, used in Marcinho, is a pump that circulates blood through an artificial lung outside the body, then back into the bloodstream. The artist was already using a pacemaker to regulate his heartbeat and, in March of this year, he had to be hospitalized to have the device changed due to a malfunction.
