The woman was placed on a respirator with serious lung failure, Karolinska University Hospital informed in a report to the Swedish Health Inspectorate Ivo, according to the newspaper Aftonbladet.
Additional complications led to an emergency cesarean section at the same time as cardiopulmonary resuscitation was in progress, the news agency Siren writes.
