Soroka defined the child's condition upon arrival at the hospital as serious. He was anesthetized and ventilated and transferred to the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit for further treatment.

MDA paramedic Najem Zaid said: "When we entered the supermarket, we saw the boy lying unconscious, without a pulse and without breathing while basic CPR was being performed. We were told that he ate grape and began to gasp. We immediately began advanced medical treatment and performed CPR, including medication and ventilation, and evacuated him to the hospital while continuing CPR while his condition was critical."
