For Example: 41 years old, JKLF chairman, Mohammed Yasin Malik's condition remained critical but stable as he declined to break his fast. Yasin Malik went on fast unto death against the "economic blockade" of Kashmir and harms/harassment of Muslims. Case of aortic valve disease, with aortic valve replacement performed in the year 1992, Malik continues to refuse to take anything orally despite doctors doing their best to convince him, sources said. Malik's blood chemistry is grossly abnormal. Overnight he was stable and passed a total of 650 ml of urine. Pulse ranged between 80-90/min, BP 110/80-100/70. At present he is hemodynamically stable, however, in view of his continuing fast we are managing him on IV fluids and anticoagulants. JKLF asked people to hold peaceful demonstrations on August 9 and also extended its support to the Muzaffarabad Chalo programme. He appealed to the international community to take notice of the situation and come to the rescue of Kashmiris. What are at least five possible causes of this patient's problem? Deprivation of rights under the color of law. Political abuse. Intentional inflicting of emotional distress. Discrimination. Exclusion. What's the management plan? Do you have any recommendations? Monitor vitals 24/7. Continue IV fluids, and consider parenteral nutrition as required. Team of Psychologists/counselors, to persuade Malik to resume orals in view of anticipated related complications and his cardiac ailment. Do you have Muslim counselors? Is the counselor fully trained in handling such cases? Ambassadors, External Affairs minister Kashmir. Who is willing to fulfill these duties and responsibilities? Keep OIC (Organization of islamic conferance) UN updated.
