Chapter 367: A Suspected Strange Disease [Asking for a Monthly Pass, Asking for a Subscription]
After seeing 100 emergency departments in one night, Liu Guolin was already so tired that his chest was pressed against his back, and as soon as he returned to the dormitory to clean up, he lay down on the bed and soon fell asleep.
His phone has been set to vibrate, he has a nurse girlfriend, who is also from this hospital, and is on duty now, so there is nothing to be done.
Sure enough, Liu Guolin slept until he didn't know when, until the door was slammed, and someone shouted louder and louder: "Lao Liu, Lao Liu!" ”
Who is it...... When, the third watch in the middle of the night called the soul......
Liu Guolin reluctantly opened his eyes, took the mobile phone on the bedside table and looked at it, but saw that it was already six o'clock in the morning, and there were 15 missed calls...... He was suddenly startled, and when he opened it, he saw that not all of them were called by his girlfriend, most of them were called by Director Li, and it was in this more than half an hour.
The spirit is excited, and he also heard clearly that it was Zhang Wenjun, a female colleague from the department, who called the door outside, didn't this guy want to take over the day shift......
Something went wrong? Liu Guolin's heart was shocked, looking at these missed calls, what happened......
"It's coming, it's coming." He hurriedly got up, put on a pair of pants, pulled over a shirt and put it on, and hurried to open the door.
I saw Zhang Wenjun standing anxiously outside the door, and when she saw him, she immediately complained: "Why don't you answer the phone, I thought you were missing, fall asleep, you sleep so deeply...... The Tianji Bureau is coming, hurry up and clean up, the director is in a hurry, the dean and they are all here, ouch, hurry up! ”
Liu Guolin was really confused when he heard it, what ......? Is there someone from the Tianji Bureau?
He then remembered the little girl in the last few clinics he had seen last night, blinking his eyes and making a strange noise...... Is this really related to supernatural forces?
How could it be, the patient looked at nothing and the vital signs were all normal...... Is that what kind of disease is it, is it contagious, there should be none, otherwise it should be a disease control officer wearing protective clothing who is knocking on the door now......
In the chaotic thoughts, Liu Guolin hurriedly went to the bathroom to wash up, put on a white coat, and followed Zhang Wenjun to the outpatient building.
Although the Third People's Hospital of Nanxiang City is a tertiary hospital, it has never been a big hospital even in the city, but early in the morning, with a phone call from the neighboring Dongzhou Tianji Bureau, the hospital was quickly blocked by the police and disease control, and there was a different scene here.
The dean, vice president and other high-level officials rushed to the hall of the isolation ward, including Zhang Dongliang, director of the emergency department, Zhou Guihong, director of pediatrics, and others. By the time Liu Guolin arrived and changed into light protective clothing, there was already a large group of big people here, and he, the little doctor, had become the one who arrived very late.
"Xiao Liu, you really are!" As soon as Director Zhang saw Liu Guolin, he was so anxious that he almost cursed, "You have stabbed a big basket." ”
"Director, I'm ......" Liu Guolin wanted to speak and stopped, but in the end he didn't say anything, and silently carried the pot on his back.
The dean not far away from them also cast their eyes, quite stern, Liu Guolin was really a little worried while carrying the blame, and felt unlucky.
"Don't be unconvinced, go see for yourself." Director Zhang sighed, "Three patients, with the same symptoms and the same epidemiological characteristics. ”
Liu Guolin was stunned, walked a few steps to the corridor, and looked at the three isolation wards, each of which contained a child, all accompanied by his parents anxiously, the three patients were all 5-7 years old, all girls, and Guo Qinying, who he saw last night, was one of them.
"What's the situation...... Liu Guolin asked Zhang Wenjun next to him gently, how does this look like an infectious disease......
Such a distinct group characteristic is already in line with the epidemiological outbreak of the epidemic.
"I don't know yet." Zhang Wenjun also whispered, his eyes behind the round-framed glasses were very puzzled, "Director Zhang and Director Zhou have a conventional judgment, which is very similar to Tourette's disease, but the incidence of Tourette's disease in preschool children is about 1%, one patient is nothing, one night we have three patients, this is not normal......"
Tourette's disease? Liu Guolin was startled, but he woke up the person in his dream with a word, yes, why didn't he think about this rare disease last night......
At this time, Zhang Wenjun handed him a stack of materials, "Hurry up and look, the people from the Dongzhou Tianji Bureau are here." ”
Liu Guolin took the information and immediately looked at it, and saw that cold sweat broke out more and more on his forehead, it's bad, it's really bad.
Tourette's disease, also known as Tourette syndrome in children.
Its etiology and pathology are not yet clear, it is more common in children, generally starts at the age of 5-8 years, and consists of two main symptoms, Tourette's syndrome and Tourette's syndrome.
Tics refer to convulsions in the movement, the patient will feel that the muscles have an unwanted but unbearable impulse, usually starting from blinking, to coughing, throat clearing, facial wrinkles, etc., often mistaken by others for grimacing, in severe cases, it will spread throughout the body, and symptoms similar to epilepsy appear during tic seizures.
Foul language is a convulsion of the voice, and the patient suddenly makes strange noises, such as scolding, learning to bark, and other strange sounds. However, the symptom of Tourette syndrome is only seen in a small number of people with Tourette's syndrome. Three patients in one night, all with two symptoms, is certainly not normal......
Normal Tourette is not contagious and does not adversely affect the patient's intelligence and life expectancy. Some celebrities have suffered from this disease, and some historians suspect that Mozart suffered from Tourist.
Most of the time, tics and foul language do not require treatment, and there are no good medications.
What patients need is psychotherapy and behaviour management, and how to participate in the normal world in this abnormal manner. However, patients will have comorbidities with a higher incidence of such as Asperger's syndrome, high-functioning autism, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, etc., and these comorbidities are often treated instead.
The problem is that, just like Director Zhang, they wondered......
The incidence of Tourette's disease is not so high, and after the onset of the disease, the patient does not have tics and strange sounds all the time, but intermittently attacks, how many times a day, or how many times a day, and some even have no seizures at all for one or two months in a year, but then it will be like that again.
And by the time most children reach puberty, the severity of symptoms decreases, and in many cases, symptoms disappear completely by adulthood. Therefore, patients with this disease are not easy to be correctly identified, and many patients with mild disease do not even know that they have this disease for life, but are considered by parents, teachers, friends, etc. that this guy has been naughty, eccentric, active, impolite, and has made faces and cursed for no reason.
Especially in China, the knowledge is not popular, the older generation of parents basically do not pay attention, and the younger parents do not know much.
Therefore, their doctors have not been able to diagnose a single patient with Tourette's for a long time, and now they have three at once......
What's going on? Liu Guolin looked at the three patients in different isolation wards with some confusion.
The disease is more common in men, 3-4 times more common than women, and some parents are culturally misled into believing that it is normal for boys to bear a little.
But now...... It's all little girls......
Before Liu Guolin finished reading all the information in his hand, it was just half past six in the morning, and the people from the Dongzhou Tianji Bureau arrived.
One team was doctors, a middle-aged man with a few young men, and another team, all dressed in protective suits. Seeing them coming, the dean, vice president, Director Zhang and others hurriedly greeted them, and Liu Guolin and Zhang Wenjun also followed.
