Title: Official Sources Provide Health Update on Volleyball Star Saber Kazemi, Urge Public to Disregard Rumors
Health Officials Address Athlete’s Critical Condition
In an official statement, Seyed Sajjad Razavi, a deputy at the Ministry of Health, provided a detailed medical update on the condition of former national volleyball team player, Saber Kazemi. The comments were made to directly address and dispel widespread rumors circulating on social media regarding the athlete’s status.
Medical Team’s Efforts and Current Status
Razavi confirmed that the hospital’s medical team and intensive care unit have been making extensive efforts to improve Kazemi’s condition. He reported that an echocardiogram has been performed and that the patient’s heart is in a good state.
However, he clarified that from a neurological perspective, the athlete remains in a coma. “We are waiting to see how he will respond to the treatment,” Razavi stated, indicating that the coming period is critical for his recovery.
Clarification on Kidney Function
Addressing the function of Kazemi’s kidneys, the health official explained that the athlete’s creatinine levels had risen, a consequence of the cardiorespiratory arrest he suffered. To address this and support the recovery of his kidneys, dialysis has been successfully performed.
Appeal to the Public
Razavi explicitly urged the public not to pay attention to unverified rumors on social media claiming the athlete had passed away. This official clarification comes amid previous reports from the country’s Volleyball Federation, which had stated that a medical commission had confirmed brain death. The latest statements from health officials provide a current and authoritative perspective on the ongoing medical efforts.
