On September 4, Quang carried out three diving sessions at the depths of 40–43 meters. After the last dive, he remained conscious, but fell into a deep coma and became completely paralyzed in both lower limbs about an hour later.

The patient is transferred to Song Tu Tay Island's infirmary.

At 6:30 a.m. on September 5, he was admitted to the infirmary in a critical condition, with deep coma, no measurable pulse or blood pressure, and required cardiopulmonary resuscitation. Doctors immediately administered emergency measures, including fluid infusion, oxygen therapy, urinary catheterization, and vasopressor medications. After five minutes, the patient regained a pulse, and his condition partially improved.

Doctors diagnosed the patient with coma and multiple organ failure (circulatory, respiratory, and acute renal failure) caused by a deep-diving accident. The infirmary consulted remotely with the Naval Medical Institute to determine an appropriate treatment regimen. His condition remains extremely critical and requires close monitoring.
