The RSAU confirmed that the deceased received maximum medical\nassistance.<\/p>\n
The incident began on Friday (25\/09\/2026) at 09:30 WIB, as the\ndeceased was completing the first session of the Latsarmil closing. As\nhe was about to enter the second training session, he complained of\nblurred vision and dizziness before losing consciousness.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe Pusdikkes Health Team, which was on standby at the training site\nunder the leadership of dr. Iriane Dewi, immediately performed first aid\non the spot,\u201d stated Colonel Kes dr. Iman Fathurrohman, Head of RSAU dr.\nEsnawan Antariksa, in a written statement on Sunday (27\/09\/2026).<\/p>\n
\u201cInitial examinations showed hypotension and an increase in body\ntemperature, indicating a heatstroke attack due to physical response to\nweather exposure and exhaustion. Field officers immediately provided\nemergency treatment including cooling\/cold compresses, intravenous fluid\nresuscitation, and oxygen therapy before referring the deceased to the\nEmergency Department of RSAU dr. Esnawan Antariksa Halim Perdanakusuma,\u201d\nhe continued.<\/p>\n
Upon arrival at the RSAU dr.

Observations until that night\nreportedly showed positive progress.<\/p>\n

However, on Saturday (26\/09) at approximately 04:30 WIB, a change in\nhealth condition occurred as recurrent seizures triggered a further\ndecline in consciousness. This condition was a systemic complication of\nheatstroke affecting vital organ functions.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe RSAU medical team immediately took swift action by coordinating\nwith RSPAD Gatot Soebroto to facilitate a referral for advanced\nneuro-intensive care,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
