Church officials said the Pontiff spent the night on "non-invasive mechanical ventilation".

The update comes after the Vatican said on Tuesday evening that the Pope was stable after suffering two episodes of respiratory failure on Monday. Tuesday's statement said that Pope Francis "remained afebrile, always alert, co-operative with therapies and well-oriented".

The 88-year-old pontiff has been in hospital since mid-February, undergoing treatment for pneumonia.

After Monday's episodes, the Pope had begun using an oxygen mask and ventilator to assist his breathing.
