A one-year-old baby died last night at the hospital in Vasto, in the province of Chieti, where he had been admitted in cardiac arrest. His mother took her son to the hospital around 7:10 PM, where he was immediately intubated and given all resuscitation measures, unfortunately with negative results . According to reports, there were no external signs of injury on his body.
The child apparently fell asleep after eating, but at a certain point his mother, of Romanian origin, saw him vomiting and intervened to help him. It remains unclear whether she attempted any maneuver before taking him to the hospital. The Carabinieri are investigating the case, having reportedly already interviewed the woman.
According to what has been learned, the child had also eaten a biscuit, so the possibility that aspiration pneumonia could be the cause of death cannot be ruled out.
The hospital itself requested an autopsy, which the Vasto Prosecutor's Office ordered. The body was seized and will be transferred to the hospital in Chieti.
