Chapter 2 Night Emergency Care

On a hot summer night, the weather is sweltering, and the camphor tree at the west end of the ward is singing and singing, and the "squeaky" insects are constantly heard in the grass of the flower bed, adding a feeling of heat to the hot air.

In the duty room, a desktop fan was shaking its head on the table, and Xia Wei and Dr. Qin were still sweating and sorting out their medical records. Suddenly, there was a lot of noise outside, crying and shouting, and Dr. Qin immediately got up and said to Xia Wei: "Hurry up and prepare for rescue, there must be an emergency patient coming." As they spoke, they reached the hall and saw a group of people approaching the ward from a distance. In a few moments, many people had gathered in the hall, and they were shouting, "Doctor, help them!" "Please, doctor, save them." Someone actually knelt on the ground and begged Xia Wei to do it.

Dr. Qin asked, "What's wrong?" Put it down and let me check. As she spoke, she approached the patient, who had been carried in the chaise longue and the door panel, and saw six patients on the door and chaise longue, their lips were blue, their breath was short, and they were sweating profusely. When the people saw that the doctor was coming, they consciously gave up the space to walk.

"Doctor, they were poisoned when they were spraying ** pesticides in the field." It was a family member of a patient who was accompanying him. Someone else said, "yes, yes, it must have been poisoned." Another person said, "They sprayed pesticides in the afternoon, and when they got home, it was like that for a while, and it scared us to death." ”

"Are you sure it's a **pesticide? Did you bring any medicines? Dr. Qin looked at the crowd and asked.

I saw a woman in the crowd shouting: "I'm here with a potion bottle, it's **, look." ”

Dr. Qin took the medicine bottle, carefully checked the trademark and drug name, and said, "That's right, it's **, are everyone else using the same pesticide?" ”

"Yes, this time our village bought this pesticide." "Yes, our family is also this pesticide." "Our family too, you can't be wrong." The crowd began to shout.

Dr. Qin examined the patients one by one, and saw that the patients' pupils were the size of pinpoints, so he instructed Xia Wei and the patient's family: "Quick, make a basin of water to scrub the skin of each patient with soapy water, and the family members will help wash it, Xia Wei will quickly go and dispense medicine, add one gram of five percent sugar saline to pralidolytic, and hang up a bottle of infusion for each person first." ”

At this moment, two nurses and a pharmacist who lived in the outpatient building of the hospital ran to the ward, and they were stunned by the scene in front of them, and they came to Dr. Qin together: "What do you need us to do?" ”

Doctor Qin didn't wait for them to finish his words before he ordered: "Xiao Wang, go and help Xia Wei give each patient's infusion, and Xiao Li quickly go and give each pesticide poisoning patient an intravenous bolus of five milligrams of atropine." Then he turned to the pharmacist: "Xiao Lu, you go and help observe the pupil size of each patient, once every half an hour, and record the results on the observation sheet." Be careful not to directly irradiate the eyes with the light of the flashlight, and use the afterglow of the flashlight to see the size of the pupil, otherwise it will hurt the eyes. ”

Dr. Qin calmly assigns everyone's work, observing and auscultating each patient, changing the dosage of medication at any time.

Xia Wei dispensed medicine in the treatment room, and came to the hall for a while to observe the situation of each patient, and check whether the records of the record sheet were complete and timely; For a while, he instructed the family members to scrub the patient's body with soap; After a while, she lay on the table to record the dosage and time of medication, and double-checked the size of the patient's pupils, Xiao Lu is not a clinician after all, she is afraid that Xiao Lu will not observe carefully enough, so as not to affect the medication. Everyone is working in an orderly manner and doing their own work.

After a while, several more patients with pesticide poisoning came, and Xia Wei and Dr. Qin led everyone to be busy. On this night, a total of more than 10 patients who were poisoned by spraying pesticides were admitted, and none of the people involved in the rescue withdrew halfway, and they all insisted until all the patients were in stable condition and out of danger of life, and it was already the second half of the night when they went back to sleep.

At one o'clock in the evening, the two nurses who helped had already left and went back to the dormitory to rest. Only Xiao Lu sat in the nurse duty room with Xia Wei, Xia Wei put down the work in her hand, looked at Xiao Lu, and said in surprise: "Xiao Lu, why don't you go back to rest?" You're going to work tomorrow, it's not early, go back and rest, thank you. ”

"I'll help you observe the patient again, you're too busy." Xiao Lu tried to stay.

"No need, I'll give Xiao Wang a gang class, she can't be busy alone on the night shift, so you can go back."

Xiao Lu wanted to say something, but was pushed and pushed away by Xia Wei.

Xiao Wang glanced at Xia Wei and said, "He may want to spend a little more time with you, but you don't understand." ”

"you, maybe he's taking a fancy to you." Xia Wei also gave Xiao Wang a wicked look.

At two o'clock in the evening, Xia Wei dragged her tired body back to the dormitory. The roommate was sleeping sweetly, Xia Wei tiptoed to make a few pieces of pot bought in the cafeteria with boiling water and ate it, washed up, and then lay down to sleep.

The next day, Xia Wei woke up and looked at the watch on the bedside, it was already ten o'clock in the morning, the scorching sun shone in through the window, and the clothes on her body were already soaked with sweat. She stretched out, sat up quickly, opened the window, fanned wildly with goose feathers, and then went downstairs to fetch a bucket of well water and scrub herself. It is said that this well was drilled when the hospital was built in the early days of liberation, and the well is located at the back of the ward, and there is a small power generation equipment next to the well, which pumps up the water from the well and sends it to each department through the tap water pipeline to supply water for the whole hospital. There is a tap water faucet and pool in the yard of the family area, and the workers' household water is to go to the pool to receive water and store it at home for backup, and the small generator has been working until the workers get off work after eight o'clock at night. The water in this well is warm in winter and cool in summer. In summer, take a sip, it is cool and sweet, and it is quite comfortable to wipe your body with well water, Xia Wei rubbed her body with well water, and suddenly felt cool all over, and her mood was particularly comfortable and leisurely.

She lit the stove, cooked some gruel, and ate the meat sauce she had brought with her. was eating, I heard the sound of "dong dong dong" climbing the stairs, and the footsteps stopped directly in front of my door, and then I only heard the voice of Aunt Liu: "Xia Wei, there is your letter." Xia Wei immediately opened the door, took the letter with a smile and said, "Thank you, Auntie!" ”

"No thanks! You've just had breakfast. Aunt Liu smiled and looked at Xia Wei's room.

"Well, I just woke up after sleeping on the night shift. Come in and sit down. ”

"No, there's something going on down there, you're busy, I'll go down." After Aunt Liu finished speaking, she walked downstairs.

Xia Wei smiled and watched Aunt Liu's departure, until the footsteps of "dong dong" disappeared, and then closed the door.
