It's pretty implausible even given everything else.

Implausible? Yeah, it is, awfully implausible, but not because the probability of Ikuko finding Battler is terribly low. Well, I guess Ikuko's characterization and all is just... hmm, how should I put this, the author's personal 'taste'?
It could have worked just the same if Battler was found let's say by "Bob Smith" and taken to a hospital normally. Well, I'm okay with it, but in all fairness it is far-fetched.
