Christian Petersen Shows Reported Improvement After Lanín Emergency as Guides Detail Trek

The hospital has halted public updates at his family's request.

Overview

  • Christian Petersen remains in the intensive care unit of Hospital Dr. Ramón Carrillo in San Martín de los Andes under close monitoring.
  • The Neuquén Health Ministry’s sole official bulletin reported multiorgan failure and a reserved prognosis following his descompensation during the Lanín expedition.
  • Multiple media outlets, citing people close to the chef, report he was extubated, woke up, and responded to stimuli in recent hours, with no new official confirmation from the hospital.
  • The Argentine Mountain Guides Association issued a detailed timeline describing behavioral changes overnight, an early-morning descent, a call to Gendarmería over a "prepotent" attitude, and a descent completed in good general condition.
  • The guides publicly rejected claims of arrhythmia or a stroke during the guided segment, and some reports say a transfer to Buenos Aires is being evaluated depending on his clinical evolution.
