BANGKOK (Reuters) -Thailand's Princess Bajrakitiyabha Narendira Debyavati developed a severe bloodstream infection and remains under medical care, the royal palace said on Friday in its first announcement about her condition since 2023.

The 46-year-old princess, the oldest child of King Maha Vajiralongkorn, was hospitalised in December 2022 after losing consciousness as a result of a heart condition, the palace said in a statement.

The palace said medication and equipment were being used to support her lung and kidney function.

Last week, a medical team administered antibiotics after detecting a severe infection in her bloodstream. Blood pressure medication was also administered, the palace said.
