Designer Rohit Bal on life support at Medanta Hospital following heart failure
Fashion designer Rohit Bal is currently in critical condition and has been placed on ventilator support at Medanta Hospital in Delhi NCR. The 61-year-old was admitted on November 23 with complications, including dilated cardiomyopathy, uncontrolled diabetes, and acute kidney failure. Doctors describe his condition as 'critical,' and he is under the care of cardiologist Dr. Praveen Chandra. Dilated cardiomyopathy, a condition where the heart muscle weakens and enlarges, has been identified as a primary concern. This condition results in the heart's inability to pump enough blood to the body. Rohit Bal had previously received treatment at Medanta last November for related health issues. In February 2010, he underwent emergency angioplasty following a heart attack. His current deteriorating health is attributed to a pre-existing cardiac condition exacerbated by alcohol abuse. Friend Arjun Rampal has visited him in the hospital.
