...oppure: heroic measures
"Heroic measures" are extensive medical procedures that involve significant discomfort and expense to the patient. The most widely known of these procedures are cardiopulmonary resuscitation, respirators, kidney dialysis, and organ transplantation. A number of other procedures, however, may constitute heroic measures depending upon the circumstances. These are extensive surgical procedures, the use of drugs or electric shock to treat rhythm disturbances of the heart, antibiotics to treat infections, cancer chemotherapy, intravenous nourishment or feeding tubes.

Medical staff often use "heroic measures" to mean "low likelihood of success," but lay people frequently equate "heroic" with "lifesaving."

<Therapeutic obstinacy> non ha tanti riferimenti in English UK/US, per questo direi che la soluzione dovrebbe essere <heroic measures>;
...un altro termine possibile è <extraordinary (lifesaving) measures>
...la scelta dipende dal contesto...
