The condition of veteran CPI(M) leader Jyoti Basu on Wednesday showed slight improvement but he continued to remain critical.
"Basu's blood pressure and pulse are stable at the moment and he has mild fever," AMRI Hospital Superintendent Dr Debashis Sharma said.
Basu continues to be on partial ventilation and is being administered blood pressure stabilising drugs ionotrops, he said, adding that his sensorium has shown little improvement.
Doctors have deferred the decision to go for a tracheotomy surgery to facilitate breathing.
The 95-year-old Marxist leader, who was admitted to the hospital for pneumonia on 1st January, will be given one more unit of blood today to raise his haemoglobin count, his personal physician Dr A K Maity said.
His urine output has improved a little and he is responding to treatment, he said.
A brain CT scan done on Tuesday had shown no change on the previous subdural haematoma. (SS-13/01)
