Eight-year-old Sri Tej is under intensive care as his neurological condition shows no improvement.
The child, who was injured in the December 4 stamped at Hyderabad's Sandhya Theatre ahead of the premier show of Pushpa 2, remains critical and on ventilator support.
As per a health bulletin released on Tuesday by Hyderabad's KIMS Cuddles Hospital, eight-year-old Sri Tej is under intensive care as his neurological condition shows no improvement.
According to doctors, he was on mechanical ventilation with minimal support of oxygen and pressures. Further a tracheostomy, a procedure where a pipe is inserted surgically into the windpipe to facilitate breathing, is being considered to wean him off ventilator. "His fever is reducing and on minimal inotropes, his vital parameters are stable. He is tolerating feeds well," said a statement from the hospital.
