Puttaparthi: Sathya Sai Baba remains critical because of erratic organ functioning and low BP. The 86-year-old godman was hospitalised on March 28.
The condition of Sai Baba deteriorated further on Thursday with doctors saying that the functioning of his organs was erratic and he was very critical and on ventilator support.
Lakhs of devotees have congregated at Puttaparthi, praying for a miracle. The prohibitory orders remain in force outside the Sathya Sai Institute of Higher Medical Sciences (SSIHMS) where Sai Baba is undergoing treatment.
The godman was very critical as his heart became quite weak due to intermittent episodes of low blood pressure, said Dr A N Safaya, director of Sri Sathya Sai Institute of Higher Sciences.
"The parameters of the functioning of the various organs of the body are also erratic and every attempt is being made to keep them in the normal limits by the administration of appropriate drugs," a health bulletin issued on Thursday evening said.
One successful cycle of low haemodialysis was conducted to assist the kidney functioning.
Doctors are continuing vigorous efforts to make the vital organs recommence their function, the bulletin said.
