Doctor saves life of woman who had cardiac arrest when she came to vote in #Bengaluru. Dr Ganesh Srinivasa Prasad, a Nephrologist at Narayana Health Centre, Bommasandra, was waiting patiently for his turn to vote at Jumbo Savari Dinne in JP Nagar 8th Phase when a woman in her fifties came to drink water from a can near the queue of voters around 9 am. She suddenly started falling when the Dr & another person in queue caught her. The Dr told TNIE, "I checked her pulse and found it was very low. There was an uprolling of eyes. Her body did not show any response and she was gasping for breath. I immediately performed CPR (Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation) and her condition improved." Those on election duty then rushed and offered her juice. An ambulance was called for which arrived in 5 mins and she was rushed to hospital. "We might have even lost her if there had been a delay" he added. She could not vote (Video shot by doc a little later shared with TNIE) #Bangalore #LSPollsWithTNIE #LokSabhaElections2024 The New Indian Express #KarnatakaElections TNIE Karnataka kannadaprabha Dr Deepak Krishnamurthy drdeepakguptans
