Sathya Sai Baba very critical: Hospital

Puttaparthi (AP), Apr 21 (PTI) The condition of Sathya
Sai Baba is very critical with all his organs showing very
poor response to treatment, doctors attending on him said
on Thursday.
In view of the deteriorating health of Sathya Sai
Baba, the Andhra Pradesh (a south Indian state) Police have
deployed additional forces here to maintain law and order.
"Non-functioning of the liver and persistent episodes
of low blood pressure are causing great worry to the doctors,"
Dr A N Safaya, Director, Sri Sathya Sai Institute of Higher
Sciences, said here.
His breathing is still ventilator dependent and the
process of slow hemodialysis has been started in the morning
to assist the kidneys, he said.
The doctors are putting their best efforts to improve
his clinical condition, Dr Safaya said.
86-year-old Sathya Sai Baba was hospitalised on
March 28 following problems related to heart and respiration.
