BCCI President Sourav Ganguly will be discharged from the Woodlands Hospital on Wednesday, the MD & CEO of Woodlands Hospital, Kolkata, Dr Rupali Basu, confirmed on Tuesday. Ganguly will be monitored daily at his home, Dr Basu added.
“The discussion was on the two other coronary blockages that need to be treated by angioplasty in this admission vis-a-vis at an immediate later stage,” said Dr Basu.
“The consensus of the board was that deferring the angioplasty is deemed to be a safer option and Mr Ganguly is stable without any chest pain and is on very optimal medical management. The family members (of Ganguly) were also present during the board meeting and were explained about the disease process and further therapeutic plan,” said Basu. “Treating doctors will be keeping a constant vigil on his health situation and taking appropriate measures daily at home, once discharged,” said Basu.
Earlier, Ganguly was hospitalised after complaining of chest pain and underwent angioplasty.
“Sourav Ganguly has undergone angioplasty. He is stable now. He will be monitored for 24 hours. He is completely conscious. There are two blockages in his heart for which he will be treated. As of now, he is stable. We will have a meeting on Monday and then we will decide what needs to be done further. Priority is to let him settle down after a heart attack. He is risk-free and he is talking as well,” Dr Aftab told reporters, according to news agency ANI.
