Chapter 124: Calm
"As soon as I got dressed, the doorbell rang outside. I pressed the button to open the electric door to the CT room and saw the gown-wearing doctor and patient standing in the doorway. I beckoned to the patient and told him to come in. When he heard this, he walked in and stood quietly while the doctor waited outside the door. ”
"The patient's top was a down jacket with a zipper, and as usual, I asked him to take it off and hang it on the coat hook. After saying this, I suddenly reacted and hurriedly stopped him, asking him not to put it there, but to put it on the blue sheet on the bed. The patient was stunned for a moment, and obediently took off his coat and put it where I had said. He was very well-behaved, and he lay down on the bed at my command, and raised his hands up. I raised the examination table, set the position, and walked to the operation room. ”
"I don't know if he was infected with the new coronavirus, and if so, how it was transmitted, I relied on my instincts to try to keep him in the examination room as little as possible. After the scan, I glanced at the image and chuckled. The images show that there are many patchy high-density shadows in the lungs, which look whitish but are different from the signs of infection that have been seen before. ”
"I told him over the intercom in the operation room that he was ready to get up. He got out of bed, got dressed, and walked to the door, ready to reach out and press the door button. I hurriedly opened the door between the operation room and the examination room, and shouted at him: Don't touch it, I'll open it!"
He silently took his hand back, and I actually felt very sorry in my heart, feeling that I had hurt him! But I couldn't say anything more, and after opening the door, the doctor was waiting at the door, probably thinking that the examination room was full of viruses, and across the examination room, the doctor shouted to me: How is it? I won't go in to see it. I shouted back: there is a problem, the image has been uploaded, you can go back and see the specifics yourself. ”
"Because reading films is not my specialty after all, I can only feel the difference in the image this time through experience. The doctor agreed, walked ahead, and took him for other tests. I called my diagnostic colleague, and the colleague on duty today was a little brother who had just joined the company, and after watching the film on the system, he also said that he had not seen such an image before, and he could only determine the infection, but not whether it was the new coronavirus. ”
"That's where my work ended, but I'm a little curious. I turned on my phone and tried to see if there were any CT images of similar cases before, and luckily found one. In contrast, except for the difference in the area of infection, they all look like ground glass, which is a common feature of viral pneumonia CT. I thought to myself, it's over, it's over. ”
After that, I still found a cleaner as usual, and disinfected it thoroughly, I watched the cleaning aunt continue to spray disinfectant in the examination room, and wipe it with a rag, I sat on the chair, and my mind was empty, until I heard someone ring the doorbell outside. ”
"I went out to look and found that there was a patient with a leg injury outside, and the family was clamoring for a check-up. I told her to wait a little while she came in when the disinfection was over. The family members shouted impatiently and asked me viciously why they wanted to disinfect now, why they couldn't do it immediately because it was an emergency. ”
"I don't know how to explain it, I know that the reason I can't tell him about the disinfection is that the last patient is very likely to be infected with the new coronavirus, and he is very likely to be infected when he goes in. There are no diagnoses now, and if I did, it would have caused panic. It can only be repeated over and over again, just wait. ”
The family stared at me viciously, and although he didn't speak, it seemed to reveal from his eyes that if I didn't agree immediately, he would beat me to death, and I ignored his reaction and returned to the operation room. The doorbell rang again, and I walked out, still him. The family still asked me when I could go in. I can only tell him that it will be fine after the disinfection, and I can't be sure of the exact time. With that, I walked back again. ”
"A few minutes later, the doorbell rang one after another, and four or five patients came in for check-ups, mostly with fever or headache, and I told them to wait outside. At this time, there is no other way but to wait. The cleaning aunt continued to spray disinfectant in the CT room, and wiped the CT machine repeatedly, and after a while, the disinfection was finished and people could enter. ”
"I laughed in my heart, I have been working for more than a year, and there are too many similar scenes, people are actually only willing to believe what they believe. Luckily, there was a back door in the room, so if he was going to rush up and hit me, I could still escape. Fortunately, he just scolded and didn't do anything. After examining this patient, the pressure was much less and the pace slowed down a bit. ”
"The other patients waiting outside the door were quietly playing with their phones, and I only put them away and came in after I called. After dealing with this wave of patients, I received a call from the hospital's infection control office. The Infection Control Office asked me in detail about my situation, whether I had done protection, and what I had done, and I answered them one by one. ”
"Presumably the patient's condition has already been reported. I put down the phone and had a bad premonition in my heart. This night shift, patients with dizziness and abdominal pain, drunken trauma came for examinations, and they were busy and sleepless all night. It was already past nine o'clock in the morning when I got home from the night shift, so I took a careful shower and called home. My family was very worried and told me to pay attention to safety, and after comforting my family, I fell asleep. ”
"On the third day, during the morning meeting, I learned that the patient had been diagnosed. Immediately, the nurse who first came into contact with the patient in the fever clinic was quarantined. The department has prepared all the protective equipment, formulated a series of prevention and control procedures, and the whole hospital has entered a state of high alert. ”
"After that, the first thing I do every morning is to turn on my mobile phone, the number of infected people continues to rise, no one in the provinces and cities across the country is spared, there is a shortage of materials across the country, and colleagues in the circle of friends have forwarded how to make their own protective equipment, even the use of masks is restricted, and the masks and alcohol gloves bought for the family cannot be shipped. ”
"I also often receive calls from the infection control office, asking if I have a fever, and I know that I have been put on the list of people to pay close attention to. Two days ago, my classmate told us that she was coming to Wubei to help. In this battle, no one can be immune to it, and all we can do is win. ”
"At the time of SARS, I was only in elementary school, and my whole impression of SARS was that I didn't have to go to school, and my parents could be at home every day. When I was in college, I learned that 17 years ago, we had such a terrible experience. Seventeen years later, here I stand, the course of time as if repeating itself. ”
"As a healthcare worker, I had to come to terms with the fact that I was facing a new virus for the first time. Like as a former child, I had to grow up. I have anxiety and fear, but I also know that fear comes from ignorance, and what is more terrible than fear is contempt. ”
