BNP Chairperson Khaleda Zia has a heart and lung infection. She is undergoing treatment under close observation by hospital doctors. Professor Dr. FM Siddiqui, a member of the medical board formed for the BNP Chairperson, told reporters in front of Evercare Hospital in the capital on Sunday (November 23) night. He said, ‘She had been getting infections frequently for the past few months. The reason we admitted her here (to Evercare Hospital) today is because she has several problems at once. That is, she has a chest infection.’
\nIn the words of Professor FM Siddiqui, ‘Because she already had heart problems. She has a permanent pacemaker in her heart and her heart was stopped, so a ring was inserted. Even then, she has a disease called mitral stenosis. That is why the chest infection affected both her heart and lungs at the same time and she was in severe respiratory distress. That is why we brought her here very quickly.\u2019
\nReferring to keeping Khaleda Zia in the 24-hour intensive care unit, the medical board member said, \u201cAfter bringing her to the hospital, we did the necessary tests very quickly. Based on the initial report we received, all the members of the medical board sat down and initially gave her antibiotics and provided her with the necessary primary, rapid and emergency treatment.\u201d
\nHe said, \u201cWe are expecting some more reports within 24 hours. She is under our close observation. We think it is very important what happens to her next condition in the next 12 hours. Right now, she is under our highest medical care and what we call very close observation. She is in the cabin.\u201d Earlier, Khaleda Zia was admitted to Evercare Hospital at 8 pm yesterday. She is under the supervision of Professor Shahabuddin Talukder, a specialist doctor at Evercare Hospital.
\nSeveral tests were conducted after the BNP Chairperson was taken to the hospital. Afterwards, a medical board meeting was held under the chairmanship of Professor Shahabuddin Talukder. The meeting was attended by Professor FS Siddiqui, Dr Zafar Iqbal, Dr Ziaul Haque, Dr Mamun Ahmed, retired Brigadier General Saiful Islam and Dr Zubaida Rahman, who joined virtually from London, and some specialist doctors from Johns Hopkins Hospital from the United States.
\nProfessor FM Siddiqui said, “Madam’s treatment has started as per the unanimous decision of the medical board.” Meanwhile, BNP Chairperson’s personal physician Professor AZM Zahid Hossain said, “We would like to say that proper measures are definitely being taken regarding Madam’s physical condition and intensive treatment is being given with utmost caution. We don’t think there is anything to worry about too much.”
\nHe said, ‘We think that if her treatment has started as it is now, Alhamdulillah. Then the medical board will meet again after the next 12 hours. After the meeting, the board will monitor his health condition and take action accordingly on what changes can be made in his treatment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
