According to the hospital director, Bruno Moroni, the 47-year-old patient began to show positive responses: she opened her eyes and reacts to stimuli.

These signs of improvement led the medical team to begin the process of withdrawing the artificial respirator, allowing her to experience periods of spontaneous breathing.
"The patient Oliveras Alejandra, 47 years old, is on her twelfth day of hospitalization in the Intensive Care Unit at Dr. José María Cullen Hospital, where she was admitted due to an ischemic stroke," details the official report released by the institution.
The report highlights that, from a clinical standpoint, Oliveras is hemodynamically stable.

Regarding her neurological progress, she presents periods of motor response and eye opening, both spontaneously and on command.
This progress has been decisive for the doctors to begin a gradual disconnection from mechanical respiratory assistance.
Despite these advances, the prognosis remains guarded. The former athlete continues under constant monitoring by the intensive care team, which closely evaluates each new sign of recovery.
What is an ischemic stroke, which is what La Locomotora suffered?
An ischemic stroke occurs when blood flow to a part of the brain is interrupted due to an artery blockage, usually by a clot.
This interruption prevents oxygen and nutrients from reaching brain tissue, which can cause cell death within minutes.
This is the most common type of stroke, and its severity depends on the affected area and the time elapsed before receiving medical attention.
The most frequent symptoms include difficulty speaking, loss of strength on one side of the body, sudden confusion, or blurred vision.
