Jayalalitha Dies At 68 | Jayalalitha Dead: Amma no more | Tamil Nadu CM Jayalalithaa dies | Amma Dead
Chief
minister of Tamil Nadu Jayalalithaa who was admitted to hospital on September
22 with complaints of fever and dehydration, suffered a cardiac arrest on
Sunday evening and continued to be very critical. Apollo Hospital confirmed
that Amma last breathed at 11:30 PM and issued statement.
In
a statement issued after midnight on Tuesday, Apollo Hospitals said: "It
is with indescribable grief we announce the sad demise of our esteemed honourable
chief minister of Tamil Nadu Puratchi Thalavi Amma at 11.30pm today
(5.12.2016). Our honourable chief minister Selvi J Jayalalithaa+ was admitted
on 22.9.2016 with complaints of fever and dehydration and underlying
comorbidities. The honourable chief minister subsequently recovered
substantially to be able to take food orally.
"On
this basis honorable chief minister was shifted from the advanced critical care
unit to the high dependency unit where her health and vitals continued to
improve under the close monitoring by our expert panel of specialists."
It
said, "Unfortunately the honourable chief minister suffered a massive
cardiac arrest on December, 4 2016, even while our intensivist was in her room.
The honourable chief minister was immediately administered resuscitation (CPR)
and provided the ECMO support within the hour. ECMO is the most advanced
treatment currently available internationally. Every possible clinical attempt
was made to sustain her revival. However, despite our best efforts, our honourable
chief minister's underlying conditions rendered her unable to recover and she
passed away at 11.30pm today (5.12.2016)."
"Every
member of the Apollo Hospitals family, the clinicians, the nursing and
paramedical staff have strived hard to provide the highest standards of care to
our beloved chief minister. We have worked tirelessly combining the might of
the clinical and technological resources at our command with the spirit of
healing and compassion that inspires us. We join the nation and the people of
Tamil Nadu in deeply mourning her loss," it said.
RIP
Amma !!!
