Doctors performed urgent surgery on her, which included a mitigating skull incision and removal of a hematoma. A few days later, her cousin, Yana Andreeva, reported the seriousness of her condition, and asked her followers to help collect donations to cover the costs of treatment.

While Yekaterina did not have health insurance, so her family had to bear the treatment expenses themselves. Her mother had previously stated that the bill for medical services amounted to about one million rubles. The model's friends created a special page on Telegram to post updates about her condition and organize a donation campaign.

Blinova was later transferred to the intensive care ward, where her pulse and blood pressure stabilized, but the complications from her injuries were very serious.

On September 3, Ekaterina's relatives reported her death. The farewell ceremony is scheduled to be held on September 4.
