Seeing the serious condition of the patient, he was admitted to the Trauma Center of AIIMS. During treatment, the doctor declared him brain dead.
The patient who donated was older
Dr. Krishna said that the woman’s family was informed about organ donation. The family had given approval for organ donation. Dr. Krishna told that during this time a challenge arose before him.

The patient to whom the kidney was transplanted by the doctor is 51 years old.
