Ping Response from the host name

Hi All,

I have the requirement where am pinging the server and matching the IP address with the existing IP address. Below code is returning me the IP address and my requirement is i have to see that also whether it is pinging or not

Code:
PING useipapd01 (172.22.32.87) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from useipapd01 (172.22.32.87): icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.028 ms
64 bytes from useipapd01 (172.22.32.87): icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.028 ms

below code is giving me the IP address of the first line. But i want to get the second line also which will tell me whether it is pinging the server or not.
Code:
ip1=$(ping -q -c 1 -t 1 "$host" |grep PING | grep -Eo '[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}')

I want to check the second line which should tell me whether it is pinging or not

Code:
64 bytes from hostname
