“Unfortunately, and in spite of the progress she had made, her underlying health conditions inevitably meant that the risk of further problems always remained,” the consultant in intensive care medicine at London Bridge Hospital said.
“This is the most advanced level of support available and is the approach the best centres internationally would take in this situation. That this technology is available at Apollo in Chennai reflects the high degree of expertise of this Centre and, that at all times, madam has received exceptional care from the Apollo and AIIMS teams, which are the equal of any in the world,” he further added.
Dr Beale was in Chennai for several days after Jayalalithaa was admitted to Apollo Hospitals on September 22.
“My thoughts and prayers are with madam, her family, her carers, and the people of Tamil Nadu at this very difficult time,” he said.
