An Indore based doctor named Akhilesh Dubey on Indigo flight to Chennai on the night of December 14, miraculously saved a heart-attack patient at 35,000 feet in the air.

Around 9 in the morning, Chennai’s Ananthraman suffered a heart attack and slumped unconscious in his seat. His neighbour raised the alarm and the cabin crew immediately made an announcement, asking if there was a doctor on board. Dr. Dubey raised his hand and was taken to the man.

On examining Ananthraman, the doctor found that the fellow flier’s pulse was missing and he was not breathing. His body had also turned cold. Dubey then firstly unbuckled patient’s seat and decided to give him  cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) following which, Ananthraman’s pulse returned and he started breathing within about one and a half minutes of CPR.

On the doctor’s advice, the pilot sought permission for priority landing at Chennai, which was granted. An ambulance was waiting when the plane touched down and Ananthraman was taken to a hospital, where his condition is said to be out of danger.
