I'm having a hard time playing on hard combat extra riddle in Silent Hill 2. In the hospital basement, the woman dies in three hits, even if I run all the way without bumping into a wall. Do I have to get a perfect run through the hallway? The difficulty spike jumped way too high here.
How to get through the hospital basement with the woman alive

Running away from the monster only applies to beginner and normal difficulty. On hard mode, running off wont be enough. The woman will get killed before you reach the elevator no matter what.
What you need to do is to shoot the monster until your gun is empty as soon as he shows up, reload on inventory, be careful not to hit the woman. And finally when you reach the red area of the hallway, shoot the monster through the fenced wall, the woman will catch up while the monster slows down, as soon as you empty your gun, you will now be able to run away safely to the elevator.
