    SalamAir flight makes emergency landing in Nagpur due to medical emergency

    Nagpur: An Oman-bound SalamAir flight from Bangladesh’s Chittagong made an emergency landing at Nagpur Airport following a medical emergency involving a passenger, an official said.

    According to Aejaz Shami, General Manager (GM) Communication, KIIMS Kingsway Hospital, a 33-year-old passenger named Mohammed Khair experienced two episodes of seizures mid-flight, prompting immediate intervention and emergency medical assistance.

    Upon landing, the medical response team from KIIMS Kingsway Hospital, Nagpur, led by Dr Rupesh Bokade, Consultant, Emergency Medicine, boarded the aircraft. Khair was found to be conscious, coherent, and orientated. His vital signs were within normal limits at the time of examination, GM Shami said.

    As per information provided by the cabin crew, the patient had suffered two seizure episodes during the flight–one of which involved frothing at the mouth, while the second episode occurred without frothing.

    Khair was promptly transferred to KIMS-KINGSWAY Hospitals, where he is currently receiving further evaluation and treatment under Dr. Rupesh Bokade, consultant at the emergency medicine department, KIIMs Kingsway Hospitals, Nagpur.

    The incident was reported to Shami, the general manager, who confirmed that the patient is being closely monitored and is undergoing necessary medical care.
