Sathya Sai Baba continues to be critical

Puttaparthi (AP), April 20: Sathya Sai Baba, who has been undergoing treatment for multi-organ dysfunction, continues to be in a critical condition, doctors attending on him said today (April 20).

"Although his vital parameters and indices are near normal, yet the condition of his liver and intermittent episodes of low blood pressure are still a cause of worry," Dr A N Safaya, Director, Sri Sathya Sai Institute of Higher Medical Sciences, said in a medical bulletin here.

Sai Baba continues to be on ventilation to help his lungs.

A panel of doctors are monitoring him round-the-clock and giving all the necessary treatment to keep him in a stable state of health, Dr Safaya said.

86-year-old Sathya Sai Baba was hospitalised on March 28 following problems related to heart and respiration.
