The condition of Sri Sathya Saibaba, who was admitted to hospital following lung and chest congestion, was improving but he continues to be on ventilator support, doctors attending on him said in Puttaparthi on Wednesday.

"Sri Sathya Sai Baba, who has entered his 10th day of treatment at this hospital, is in a stable state of health as he was yesterday. There are signs of improvement in the functioning of his kidneys although he is still on dialysis," a health bulletin issued on Wednesday morning by A N Safaya, director of Sri Sathya Sai Institute of Higher Medical Sciences, said.

"He continues to be on ventilator for assisting his respiration. Blood pressure and all other parameters are satisfactory. The panel of doctors treating him is keeping a constant watch over his health condition," it said.

85-year-old Sathya Saibaba was admitted to the super-speciality hospital on March 28 following complaints of lung and chest condition.
