London, Jan 6 (PTI) A British Indian liver specialist battled for five hours to save the life of a passenger on a long-haul flight from London to Bangalore, a media report said.
Dr Vishwaraj Vemala, 48, who works at Birmingham’s Queen Elizabeth Hospital, was on his way to India with his mother when a fellow passenger went into cardiac arrest, BBC reported.
Aided by medical supplies on board, including a pace monitoring device and blood pressure monitoring machine, and other items from passengers, Dr Vemala twice resuscitated the 43-year-old in November.
