Sonam Wangchuk stable despite weakness from fasting, hospital confirms
Sonam Wangchuk remains in stable condition despite suffering from dehydration and physical weakness caused by a prolonged fast, Safdarjung Hospital confirmed.
Current Medical Status
Medical professionals at Safdarjung Hospital reported on Saturday that the activist is currently stable. However, the extended period of fasting has led to significant physiological strain, specifically manifesting as dehydration and general bodily weakness.
Clinical teams are monitoring his vital signs closely to manage the effects of the nutritional deficit. While his condition is being categorised as stable, the medical staff noted that the lack of sustenance has impacted his physical strength.
Health Monitoring and Care
The hospital's medical team is focused on rehydration and stabilising his electrolyte levels. The following factors are being prioritised in his clinical management:
- Fluid Resuscitation: Addressing the acute dehydration resulting from the fast.
- Vital Sign Monitoring: Continuous assessment of cardiac and respiratory functions.
- Nutritional Support: Managing the transition back to oral intake as his body recovers.
Medical updates regarding his progress are being released as new clinical data becomes available. The hospital has not yet provided a definitive timeline for his full recovery or the resumption of his activities.
