And Meng Tiantian also knows that the patient who just left, even if he has an artificial lung, it may be difficult to rescue him, the patient has hypertension and diabetes, and ECMO can only be equivalent to a life-saving straw.

"The use of artificial lungs is also easy to cause a lot of complications, he has a history of diabetes, there is no way, and besides, he is already so old, we have not yet developed a special drug for the virus, there is really no way. Dr. Gao was also very depressed, he took a deep breath and tried to relieve his emotions, these doctors have naturally seen a lot of deaths after fighting for so many days, but every new death will still affect their hearts.

The alarm of the monitoring instrument has stopped, and the patient's struggle and cry for help have also stopped, and the ward has almost fallen into silence, Meng Tiantian said softly, "Do your best, don't blame yourself." ”

Dr. Gao shook his head a little tiredly, "It's not that I blame myself, it's just that I feel quite weak when I see that the patient's condition is urgent but I can't do anything, he already has respiratory failure, and his lungs are also failing because of diabetes." ”

Jiang Wei also sighed on the phone: "When this patient was first transferred to the ICU yesterday, I was quite worried, diabetes for many years, the body's immune system has been destroyed, and now I am infected with the virus...... There's no way, I've done my best, and my lungs really can't work properly, so pack up and get out of the hospital!"

The two doctors exchanged some more questions about treating the patient over the phone before hanging up.

Meng Tiantian and Zhang Yue began to pack up the patient's body and relics, the 71-year-old man, when he entered the hospital, he should have been in a hurry, plus most of the subsequent comas survived on nutrient solution, and there were few things to pack up, so they were quickly sorted out.

Closing the blue curtain again, helping to disinfect and wrap the body inside, Meng Tiantian's mood is still not calm, now there are still about 100 seriously ill patients dying every day, and as Dr. Gao said, there is no specific drug for viral infection, and sometimes the treatment is very weak.

The blue curtain opened, the patient's body had been wrapped, the two people sent the body out and rushed back to the ward, the atmosphere in the ward was still very dull, Li Xianglan saw the patient in the same ward again failed to rescue and died, and asked Meng Tiantian in a frightened whisper, "Nurse, I don't have any diabetes, right?

Meng Tiantian didn't know how to answer, so he could only try to comfort and comfort, "This depends on whether the diabetes symptoms are serious, and some complications are more serious, besides, you don't have a history of this, and now your lung condition is improving, don't worry." ”

"That's good, that's good...... It's scary! Fortunately, I didn't like sweets before, and I didn't have this disease!"

Li Xianglan thought about it for a while, and indeed as Meng Tiantian said, she stopped making noise, the last time she saw the death of a patient in the ordinary ward, she was almost always worried that she would suddenly have an accident, but after a few days of recuperation, she was not so scared.

Although many patients have died since coming to support, Meng Tiantian is still affected by his mood, and the patients who are dying now will become an ordinary data among the new deaths tomorrow.

Until the shift change, Meng Tiantian was still a little depressed.

"I see patients before they die trying to reach up for help every time, like ...... It's like a drowning person trying to grab a piece of driftwood...... Just looking at me makes me feel bad. Before leaving the infected area, Meng Tiantian's eyes kept flashing the appearance of the dead patient just now, and his mood was inevitably low.

Hu Yang, the head nurse, patted her shoulder, "After all, in the end, I can't breathe normally, and my lungs can't work normally, for example, the patient just now, even if he gets on a ventilator and has tracheal intubation, but in the end it is their lungs that have to cooperate with the work, and the lungs can't be used, no matter how much they toss, it's in vain, alas! These are all things that can't be helped." ”

"If you use ECMO, can you still delay it a little longer?" Meng Tiantian was still a little uncomfortable.

"The first, the cost is too great, the cost of using an artificial heart-lung machine is high, and a professional medical team is required, and the second, it is said that there are many complicated complications, bleeding, blood clots, infection, liver and kidney function may be damaged, diabetic patients have poor kidney function, they have tried their best, don't think about things that can't be helped, we have to look forward, now as long as it is not this kind of particularly critical patients, there is generally a way to pull it back." ”

Meng Tiantian nodded, "I just feel a little uncomfortable, especially when I saw the news the day before yesterday, a doctor shared the feelings of a critically ill patient before he died, saying that the patient was very awake a few minutes before he died, and called the doctor for help, saying that he couldn't breathe as if he was submerged in water, I just saw the patient, I thought of this, and I felt very uncomfortable, it was equivalent to watching a drowning person sink, but I couldn't reach out and pull him ashore." ”

"The cause of death from viral infection is essentially the same as drowning, drowning people die because a large amount of water enters the lungs, oxygen can't enter, and viral infection is that the lungs are filled with jelly-like secretions caused by the virus, the ventilation function is completely lost, and no matter how thick the oxygen is, it can't get in, even if you just helped suck sputum, it's useless, you can't reach the end of the terminal by tracheoscope, and now you don't use special drugs, there's no way!"

The head nurse, Hu Yang, sighed as she spoke, Meng Tiantian still felt a little uncomfortable in her heart, but this feeling of powerlessness was quite torturous.

When I returned to the hotel in the evening, the head nurse immediately informed everyone in the group of what I had told Meng Tiantian today: to support the cabin hospital and Huoshenshan Hospital.

Wang Mengxue also saw the news for the first time, and immediately said, "No matter where I go to support, I will definitely obey the arrangement!" Everyone also responded to the head nurse in the group and collectively obeyed the arrangement.

Meng Tiantian immediately opened a video with Sun Han, "I have returned to Xi'an in the afternoon, and now I am in centralized isolation in a hotel not far from home, I am in a room with Lin Hu, show you the room...... It's very clean and hygienic, except that you can't go out. ”

"Do you have a thermometer? I measure my body temperature every day for the past few days, and I must tell you if I have any cough and fever symptoms. Meng Tiantian was not at ease.

"Yes, I will test it once in the morning and evening, you don't have to worry, do you have dinner at night? Try to eat as much as you can when you come back from work, you will eat such two meals a day in the morning and one night, and you will not have much time to rest, so it is strange that people are not thin. ”

"Definitely eat more," Meng Tiantian thought for a while and confirmed with Sun Han, "Are the meat buns donated to our hotel near your home?"

Sun Han didn't deny it, "How does it taste? I don't know if the vacuum packaging will change its taste." ”

Meng Tiantian nodded again and again, and told Sun Han that they might have to be transferred to the cabin hospital, Sun Han still supported her as always, and the two talked for a while, Meng Tiantian's depressed mood today because of the patient's failure to rescue and die was finally relieved a lot.

And Wang Mengxue was in a daze after making a phone call with her grandmother, and when she saw Meng Tiantian finish the video, she turned her face and asked, "Sister Tiantian, I want to open a video with my grandmother, I heard her voice quite panting when she spoke just now, but she obviously didn't want me to know that she was transferred to the ICU, what should I do, I want to see grandma." ”

"Then turn on the video, grandma is afraid that you are worried, you have to be optimistic, grandma may be infected by your emotions!" Meng Tiantian encouraged Wang Mengxue, in the ICU ward, she saw a lot of patients, and some of them were discharged in another form when they went in and out.

When I first went in, maybe the situation was not so serious, and I could call my family and talk to my family on the phone while being treated, but as the condition became serious, I might not be able to slowly breathe failure, organ failure, and slowly I couldn't even make a phone call, and I couldn't say it completely, so I could only lie in a coma and let the doctor rescue and treat her, no matter what the situation of Wang Mengxue's grandmother was, Meng Tiantian still didn't want her to leave regrets.

Wang Mengxue hesitated, and finally sent a video to her grandmother.

"Sister Tiantian, can you stay by my side with me? I'm afraid that I can't help crying when I see grandma in a bad condition, so grandma must be very worried. ”

Meng Tiantian nodded, sat beside her and held her hand tightly.

The last time I saw Wang Mengxue's grandmother, she was in an ordinary ward, she looked in a good mental state, and she spoke more neutrally, but this time under Wang Mengxue's repeated insistence, even Meng Tiantian was startled, the old man was already on a breathing mask, and his face was not very good-looking, and the nurse who was monitoring next to him helped to open the video with his mobile phone.

"Grandma......" As soon as Wang Mengxue said two words, she was a little choked up and couldn't help herself, and her hand was tightly grasping Meng Tiantian's hand.

The grandmother was smiling, breathing slowly and faintly through the breathing mask.

"Good boy, what are you crying about, grandma is fine!"

"I'm not crying, grandma, are you feeling very uncomfortable now? Isn't there anything wrong? I can't go back to take care of you in Wuhan now. Wang Mengxue tried to hold back her tears, but her voice kept trembling.

"I don't need you to take care of me, it's good for us to take care of me in the ward, you work hard in Wuhan. Grandma's voice was weak, but there was a relieved smile on her face, "I told people that my granddaughter is in Wuhan, everyone said that you are amazing, and they all praise you, haven't you opened that video tonight...... Grandma will see later!"

Wang Mengxue rubbed her eyes and forced a smile, "I'll watch it later, I'm a little tired today, and I may not have much energy to do a live broadcast, but if grandma wants to watch it, I'll broadcast it live later." ”

Grandma smiled and shook her head slightly, "Let's not make videos when we're tired, it's a waste of time, you have to go to bed early, you can sleep more to get better, grandma now sleeps a lot a day." ”

"Eun, I listen to grandma, but grandma ...... I still have a long time to go home, there are still a lot of patients in Wuhan, I can't go back to Xi'an now, even if I want to go back, I have to quarantine for more than ten days, I can't go home to see you, grandma, I'm sorry!"
