Chapter 143: Grandma Zhang's Sudden Illness

Dai Yunyang woke up groggy.

He turned on his mobile phone and found that the call showed that Grandma Zhang had called, so he quickly dialed back. After connecting, Grandma Zhang's voice was very weak, but she said with a sense of relief: "Xiao Dai, I didn't bother you when I called!" ”

"No, Grandma Zhang, I was just about to change shifts. It doesn't matter, what do you say, by the way, how is your illness? ”

"It's good, I called to tell you about this, thank you for saving me last time. I've been hospitalized here, and I found out that it was bacterial pneumonia, not COVID. Now that I'm getting better, I'll call you and thank you. If you hadn't saved me that day, I'm afraid I would have died. ”

"Auntie, don't say that, it's right to help each other, you can trust me to trust our doctor, you can rest well."

"Okay, then you should go to work too, I know you are very hard, very tired. I saw that the senior secretary of your hospital asked for help in the news, saying that you are very short of protective equipment, and it just so happens that we still have some masks and a few goggles at home, so I asked my daughter-in-law to wrap it into a bag and put it at the doorman of your emergency center, especially for you. You take it, don't give it to others, you are the most dangerous in intensive care, you should use the best, my mask river goggles are the best kind, you must not give it to others. ”

Dai Yunyang was very moved, the old lady's concern for herself was really from the heart, and she hurriedly comforted and said: "Thank you, old man, I will definitely keep it for myself and not give it to others." ”

Dai Yunyang hung up the phone and came to the janitor of the emergency department, and the janitor hurriedly gave him a package.

Dai Yunyang took the package and opened it, although Grandma Zhang said not to give masks or anything to others, but the donated materials were to be shared. In addition, their critical care equipment can still be guaranteed, and other medical staff have saved protective equipment and prioritized the use of medical staff in the intensive isolation ward, after all, they are the most dangerous front line.

So Dai Yunyang decided to hand over the package to the nurses and let them distribute them in accordance with the regulations on donated items.

He took the package and walked quickly back to the medical guidance desk of the emergency center, handed the package to the nurse on duty and said, "This is a pack of masks and goggles donated by citizens, you can take it." ”

The nurse hurriedly said, "Doctor Dai, please register the form." We are required to send WeChat or text messages to express our gratitude if donors are willing to leave their contact information. ”

Dai Yunyang had Grandma Zhang's contact number and address, so he took a pen and began to fill out the form.

Another nurse opened the package and checked the contents for sorting. When she opened it, she smiled and said, "It's funny, these donated items are so funny." ”

Dai Yunyang was stunned for a moment, quickly took a look, and couldn't help but smile. The mask is a medical mask, a few small packets, but those goggles are very fun, it turns out to be children's swimming goggles. The gloves are even more interesting, a large box of wide plastic gloves for kitchen cooking.

The nurse said: "The mask is no problem, this glove can also be used, at least we second-line doctors and nurses can use this glove." As long as it is not in contact with the patient, it can be used for cleaning or something. It's this goggles, why don't you return them to others, this child can use it for swimming, and the child can still use it for swimming. ”

Dai Yunyang smiled and said: "That's it, it's rare for people to have a piece of their minds, and it hurts people's hearts to go back, so keep it as a souvenir in the future." Hopefully, after the complete victory over the epidemic, we can open a museum to exhibit the things donated by the citizens, which is a piece of the citizens' hearts. ”

The nurse nodded and said: "That's good, the citizens send all kinds of things, such as masks, all kinds of them, including standard surgical masks and ordinary medical masks, as well as old line masks, dust masks and ordinary cloth masks, and there are also gas masks, I don't know where they got them." ”

"Yes, there has never been a hero who fell from the sky, only mortals who stepped forward."

When Dai Yunyang said this, he was very emotional.

Standing up in times of danger is the call of humanity.

As a doctor, looking at those patients who are struggling in pain on the hospital bed are still waiting for him to reach out and treat them, although there are not many methods he can use at this moment, and his treatment in many cases cannot achieve the goal, unable to save their lives, and the sense of helplessness and failure often tortures him madly. But he still had to come forward, because there was no one behind him, and although he might not be able to save him if he came to help, if he didn't, the patient would definitely die.

Thinking of this, Dai Yunyang dragged his tired body and continued to move forward.

In front of the patient, Dai Yunyang tried to show ease and fearlessness. The patients were already in a state of extreme despair, and if there was no hope in the doctor, they gave up completely, waiting for death to take their lives.

………………

Dai Yunyang was writing a doctor's order in front of the computer, and suddenly the call bell for the sixteenth bed rang, it was Aunt Huang.

Aunt Huang was intubated before, but her condition improved significantly, and Dai Yunyang pulled it out for her again. Changed to a non-invasive ventilator.

He hurried to the bedside and asked her, "Is there something wrong?" ”

This kind of answering the bell was supposed to be done by the nurses, but the nurses were too busy, even busier than their doctors. Because nurses need to do too much nursing work, especially in intensive care, every nurse is too busy to touch the ground. In comparison, doctors are more relaxed, so Dai Yunyang will actively share the work that can be shared whenever he is free, and use himself as half a nurse.

Aunt Huang flipped in pain and said, "I feel uncomfortable. ”

As he spoke, he moved the oxygen mask on his mouth and nose and flipped his head in pain.

Without waiting for Dai Yunyang to speak, in the seventeenth bed next to him, a silver-haired old man in his nineties removed the oxygen mask and said to her: "You have to adjust your breathing, and you have to follow the rhythm of the ventilator." You have to inhale when it blows, you have to exhale when it inhales, and if you don't do that, if you breathe at your own pace, you can't keep up with its rhythm, which is called man-machine confrontation, and then you will feel very breathless. ”

This old man just moved in, and he moved into this bed after Zhou Fatzi went to the toilet and collapsed.

He had two very serious lung infections, but due to his age, he was asked by his family and himself not to use invasive ventilators as much as possible. In the words of the old man, just go, more than ninety, the rest of the road in this life can be counted in days, there is no need to suffer again before dying.

Therefore, as the attending doctor, Dai Yunyang, although his condition has already indicated tracheal intubation, especially after the last meeting, the use of non-invasive breathing has no effect when the intubation is moved forward, so he should be intubated or tracheostomy. But Dai Yunyang did not do this, and still maintained a non-invasive ventilator, but worked hard to adjust the parameters of the ventilator to be more accurate and maximize oxygen supply.
