Download PDF Poet Shamsur Rahman lapsed into a very critical condition yesterday afternoon.
As his heart was having trouble functioning, he was put on a ventilator at around 3:00pm, said the doctors at Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University Hospital (BSMMUH).
The other vital organs of his body too were not working as well as they should, they added.
Earlier in the day, the poet was showing slight signs of improvement.
The nine-member medical team formed for the poet yesterday placed a tube in his throat to remove cough.
His blood pressure was constantly fluctuating and the level of oxygen fell alarmingly, added the medical sources.
A press release from the hospital said the medical team does not approve of the idea of sending the poet abroad for further treatment as it is highly precarious for him now to move.
Poet Shamsur Rahman was admitted to BSMMUH on August 6 with acute lever and kidney condition along with old age complications.
