1:13Now PlayingFormer President Bill Clinton was hospitalized in California this week after a urinary tract infection spread to his bloodstream, according to his doctors.
The 42nd commander-in-chief was taken to University of California Irvine Medical Center on Tuesday for “close monitoring” and given IV antibiotics and fluids, according to a joint statement from Dr. Alpesh Amin and Dr. Lisa Bardack.
The 75-year-old ex-president had been in California for an event for his foundation when he started feeling unwell and fatigued that day, his doctors and staff told CNN medical correspondent Sanjay Gupta.
He went to the hospital for testing, which ruled out COVID-19 as well as heart-related problems that have troubled him since he had quadruple bypass surgery in 2004, Gupta said.
Instead, he was found to have a urologic infection, which is common in older people but can be dangerous if it spreads, Gupta said.
“What they think is going on with the former president now is a blood infection. Sometimes known as sepsis,” Gupta told viewers late Thursday.
