Former Prime Minister and BNP Chairperson Begum Khaleda Zia underwent health check-ups at Evercare Hospital in the capital on Monday.
She arrived at the hospital from her Gulshan residence around 5:35 pm and stayed there for over one and a half hours.
The BNP chairperson underwent several tests at the hospital as per the advice of her medical board.
The BNP chief left the hospital around 7: 13 pm and reached her residence at 8:22 pm.
Khaleda’s personal physician AZM Zahid Hossain said the medical board formed earlier, led by Prof Shahabuddin Talukder, advised her to go under the health check-ups at the hospital.
"She underwent various necessary medical tests at the hospital. The test reports will be available by tomorrow (Tuesday),” he said.
Zahid said the medical board will decide her next course of treatment after assessing her health condition and test reports.
Asked about Khaleda’s physical condition, he said, "Her condition is as before and it remains unchanged.”
Khaleda, a 77-year-old former prime minister, has been suffering from various ailments, including liver cirrhosis, arthritis, diabetes, kidney, lung, heart, and eye problems.
She received treatment at the same hospital six times since she was infected with Coronavirus in April, 2021.
In November 2021, Khaleda Zia was diagnosed with liver cirrhosis.
On June 10 last, the BNP chief suffered a heart attack due to a 95 percent block in her left artery and a stent was placed there by removing the blockage at the same hospital the following day.
Doctors also found two more blocks in her blood vessels, but they could not remove those due to her health complications.
