What does critical but stable condition mean? Jeremy Renner snow plow accident sparks concern 

American actor Jeremy Renner is in a "critical but stable condition" after a snow plow accident on January 1, 2023. As per his spokesperson, the actor suffered injuries after the weather-related accident. Furthermore, Deadline reported that Renner was airlifted on Sunday, January 1, 2023, but is now receiving "excellent care."

The incident occurred when the Reno area got hit by a winter storm on New Year's Eve. The storm also resulted in 35,000 homes across Northern Nevada's Washoe, Carson, Douglas, Storey, and Lyon counties losing power. Renner, who owns a house in Reno, was in the area at the time.

In terms of Renner's condition, "critical but stable" particularly means that the patient is in a critical condition, but they are not likely to get worse in the short term. While most hospitals in the US use standard terms like undetermined, good, fair, serious, and critical, many hospitals, such as the George Washington University Hospital in Washington, use their own phrases like 'critical but stable.'

However, since the term is quite perplexing, many hospitals avoid using the phrase, as being critical means that the patient is serious and that their vital signs are "unstable."

Not much related to Renner's condition is known yet. Perhaps a formal announcement from his spokesperson or family could clear up many doubts, like what the injuries are, whether his vitals are stable, and what doctors are saying.
