The condition of Sathya Sai Baba is very critical with all his organs showing very poor response to treatment, doctors attending to him said on Thursday.
In view of the deteriorating health of Sathya Sai Baba, the Andhra Pradesh police have deployed additional forces in Puttaparthi 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. His breathing is still ventilator dependent and the process of slow hemodialysis has been started in the morning to assist the kidneys, he added.
"The doctors are putting their best efforts to improve his clinical condition," Dr Safaya said.
Eighty-six-year-old Sathya Sai Baba was hospitalised on March 28 following problems related to heart and respiration.
