纳斯卡赛车明星凯尔·布施的家属周六发布声明称,他因重症肺炎发展为败血症去世。
“布施家族收到的医疗评估结果显示,重症肺炎发展为败血症,引发了快速且难以控制的相关并发症,”布施家族在声明中说道。
这位在纳斯卡三大顶级系列赛中胜场数历史第一的车手,于周四突然离世。此前一天,他在北卡罗来纳州康科德市通用汽车公司的驾驶模拟器中晕倒。
根据美国疾病控制与预防中心(CDC)的说法,败血症是一种危及生命的病症,当身体对感染产生极端反应时,会导致组织和器官受损。
这是布施家族自周四以来首次发表声明。周四他们曾在社交媒体上表示,他“身患重病需住院治疗”,将错过本赛季最重要赛事之一的本周末可口可乐600英里大赛。
据CBS新闻周五获取的一份911报警录音显示,这位41岁的车手在去世前一天出现呼吸急促、感觉身体过热并咳血的症状。
在紧急报警电话中,一名未透露身份的报警人平静地告诉调度员:“有一名男子呼吸急促,浑身发烫,感觉自己要晕倒了,还咳出了一点血。”
据卡巴鲁斯县警长办公室提供的录音,布施当时躺在该场所的浴室地板上,报警人告诉调度员:“他还醒着。”
两周前,在沃特金斯格伦参加杯系列赛时,有人通过无线电听到布施告诉车队,赛后要安排一名医生等候他。电视转播称,布施当时一直受鼻窦感冒困扰。
尽管身体不适,布施仍在5月15日的多佛赛道赢得了工匠卡车系列赛的冠军,这距他去世不到一周。
布施曾在乔·吉布斯车队效力期间,于2015年和2019年拿下杯系列赛总冠军。他在奥赖利汽车零件系列赛(102胜)和工匠卡车系列赛(69胜)中胜场数均为历史第一,这两项赛事分别被视为纳斯卡赛事的第二和第三级别。加上杯系列赛的63场胜利,他在纳斯卡三大顶级赛事中总共拿下234场胜场,为历史最多。

NASCAR star Kyle Busch died from severe pneumonia that progressed into sepsis, according to a statement released Saturday by his family.
“The medical evaluation provided to the Busch Family concluded that severe pneumonia progressed into sepsis, resulting in rapid and overwhelming associated complications,” according to the statement from the Busch family.
Busch, who won more races in NASCAR’s top three series than anyone in history, died suddenly on Thursday after passing out a day earlier in a driving simulator at General Motors facility in Concord, North Carolina.
Sepsis is a life-threatening medical condition that occurs when the body has an extreme response to an infection, causing damage to tissues and organs, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
This was the Busch family’s first statement since Thursday, when they wrote on social media that he “experienced a severe illness resulting in hospitalization” and would miss this weekend’s Coca-Cola 600, one of the biggest races of the season.

The 41-year-old experienced shortness of breath, felt he was overheating and was coughing up blood the day before his death, according to a 911 call obtained Friday by CBS News.
During the emergency call, an unidentified caller calmly told the dispatch: “I’ve got an individual that’s shortness of breath, very hot, thinks he’s going to pass out, and he’s producing a little bit of blood, coughing up some blood.”
Busch was lying on the bathroom floor inside the complex and the caller told dispatch, “he is awake,” according to audio provided by the Cabarrus County Sheriff’s Office.
Two weeks ago, while competing in a Cup race at Watkins Glen, Busch was heard on radio telling his team to have a doctor waiting for him when the race ended. The TV broadcast said Busch had been dealing with a sinus cold.
Despite the issues, Busch won the Craftsman Truck Series race on May 15 at Dover Motor Speedway, less than a week before his death.
Busch won Cup Series titles in 2015 and 2019 while driving for Joe Gibbs Racing. Busch is the all-time leader in wins in the O’Reilly Auto Parts Series (102) and Craftsman Truck Series (69), considered the second and third tier in the sport respectively. Combined with 63 wins in the Cup Series, he holds the most wins ever by a driver in NASCAR’s three top divisions (234).
