"A clinical and laboratory examination of the general ascertained
that in the past few days his blood pumping functions had
deteriorated and his heart rhythm has been disrupted. An ECG
indicated that he is vitally dependent on an electro-stimulator
with a rhythm of 20/min," the report said.
Despite being advised by the doctors' team to be hospitalised the
patient still will not allow to be admitted to hospital.
"The medical team has increased therapy of the disturbances in the
heart's pumping function and anti-rythmic therapy," the report
issued by the team headed by Dr. Mijo Bergovec said. The team also
consists of Dr. Velimir Bozikov, Academic Ivo Cikes, Dr.
Boris Starcevic and Dr. Berislav Radic.
