Chapter 122: The Last Shift

After several hours of hard resuscitation, the patient's condition was finally stabilized. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing that his condition was stabilizing, Wu Hao said, "Okay, let's go down." ”

Dai Yunyang followed Wu Hao downstairs, but as soon as they arrived at the staircase, they heard the rapid monitor siren in the ward behind them, and the nurse shouted: "Oh no, Director, the patient's heart has stopped!" ”

Wu Hao rushed back urgently, and after seeing the situation, he immediately said to Dai Yunyang: "Immediately perform tracheotomy and cardiac resuscitation." ”

Dai Yunyang performed a tracheostomy and was connected to an invasive ventilator.

Wu Hao personally performed cardiac compressions on the patient, trying to make his heart that had stopped beating again, but this time they spent half a day of effort, and finally maintained a straight line and could not resume beating.

Wu Hao reluctantly announced his death.

Everybody was extremely heavy.

It's too fast, only a few minutes. Just before that, the patient was saved, and when they thought they could breathe a sigh of relief, death quickly took the patient's life. It's like a cat catching a mouse, making the mouse think it has a chance to escape, only to be swallowed by the cat in one bite, destroying all hope.

Wu Hao and the others returned to the second floor with a heavy heart, and Li Yanling also felt very heavy after asking.

………………

Wu Hao had time to take a break from shifts.

I stayed up for another thirteen hours.

After Wu Hao went downstairs, he first came to the laboratory department and asked if his report had come out.

The laboratory doctor told him to wait until tomorrow to come out because there are so many people doing the tests now that he can't be busy. They have prioritized their medical staff to the front, but even so, there are many medical staff who need to be tested.

Wu Hao shook his head helplessly, ready to go back to sleep first.

Wu Hao is better than other doctors, he at least has his own office as the head of the department, he returned to the office dizzily, closed the door and took off his coat, climbed into the steel frame bed and fell asleep.

But before he fell asleep, the phone rang, he was very sleepy, and wanted to sleep well, but according to the regulations, he could not turn off the phone, or even turn it on silent, he had to stay on call. I grabbed my phone helplessly, praying in my heart that nothing would happen to me, I really needed to sleep for a while, I was too sleepy and tired.

He grabbed his phone and looked at it, and found that it was his college classmate who ran a private hospital in the southern coastal area, and he was stunned for a moment before connecting. Without waiting for the other party to speak, he said strangely: "How do you know that I am off work now?" You're so godly, I just got back from work and was about to come back to bed, and your call came. ”

The old classmate on the other side of the phone said angrily: "You asked me to call you at this time, you said that you just got off work at this time, why did you forget this stubble?" ”

Wu Hao patted his head, and then remembered that before going to work, the old classmate in a private hospital in Shenzhen called him to ask him about changing jobs. He was in a hurry to go to work, saying that he would call at this time, and he just got off work.

But I didn't expect that after the old classmate called, Wu Hao was so tired that he forgot about it. Wu Hao patted his head and said, "Yes, yes, I'm sorry, I'm completely confused." ”

As soon as he said this, Wu Hao couldn't help but cough again, and waited for him to stop coughing on the other side of the phone before saying, "You seem to be sick, didn't you get hit?" ”

"I'm fine, although there is an infection in the CT scan of the lungs, the nucleic acid test was negative twice. But there was another time when the results didn't come out. ”

"Oh, that's fine, by the way, do you think about it, my suggestion?"

When the old classmate told him before, he was in a hurry to go to work and didn't listen carefully, and he forgot about the stubble in a dizzy state, and he didn't remember what the old classmate's suggestion was, so he had to ask: "You know that I am now dizzy and have a bad memory." What do you suggest? ”

The old classmate said angrily: "Alas, you actually forgot about the important matter of human life? Well, let me tell you, I learned from the news and various sources that your Wuhan epidemic is quite serious, and the hospitals are crowded with new crown pneumonia patients. Not to mention other diseases, even if many new crown pneumonia patients are seriously ill, they can only be isolated at home. You're sick again, have you ever thought about leaving? I know you said that you will come to me after the New Year, and now I think you should be in advance, it is best to bring your wife and daughter tomorrow to buy the first flight and come back quickly, even if it is first class, I will reimburse you. ”

"It doesn't matter if you're COVID or not, if you come here, at least there are doctors and nurses here who can treat you and get you very good treatment. You stay in Wuhan, what if it's really Covid? If you can't go to the hospital, you will die without doctors and nurses, and you can't save yourself if you are a doctor! This disease requires a ventilator, ECG monitoring, ECMO artificial heart-lung machine rescue, a variety of instruments, and enough experienced doctors and nurses. Now that your medical care in Wuhan is overcrowded, who will take care of you if you are sick? Old classmate, you know all this! ”

Wu Hao nodded heavily and said, "I know." ”

"It's good to know, now immediately take your wife and children, don't bring anything, buy the first class of the nearest flight and fly over immediately, and I will arrange a hospitalization examination for you." We have also found cases, but very few and there are enough of the best medical resources to treat you. ”

Wu Hao was silent for a long time before saying: "Thank you old classmates for caring for me, but I can't come for the time being, at least I can't resign until this epidemic is over." ”

"Why? At this time, you still have to carry forward the spirit of fearlessness, and do you still want to talk about saving lives and helping the wounded? It's important to save your life! ”

"You're right, it's important to save your life. But I'm a doctor, and saving lives is not just empty talk, but something to do. In the past few days, I have seen too much sadness in life, and my deputy, an old doctor who is about to retire, has just been diagnosed with severe new crown pneumonia. Like you said, he can't live in without a bed, and even if he's the deputy director of the hospital's emergency center, he can't give him a bed, he has to wait in line. ”

"Now, Wuhan's medical resources have been completely squeezed, and the more I can't leave at this time, who made me choose to practice medicine. I don't talk about sacrificing the big and empty things, I just really feel that these patients need me to stay, and I need to do everything I can to save them. The number of patients is increasing, and the doctors and nurses are falling one after another. ”

"Just now, one of our anesthesiologists died of an inflammatory storm and was not saved, and I watched him die. A small nurse in the urology department is very sick and is also in intensive care in our ward. Another intern also died of illness today, and his heart suddenly stopped. He has severe COVID, and similarly, there are no beds in the intensive isolation unit, so he cannot go to the intensive care area for monitoring. He was transferred from the mild ward to the emergency center and was delayed for more than 10 minutes, and his heart could not beat again after the sudden stoppage. ”

"I don't know if there will be more and more cases in the future, and many doctors and nurses are showing symptoms of the coronavirus. In the early days, we didn't know much about the disease, and we didn't even know how contagious it was, so many doctors and nurses were infected and many people fell ill. And now, countless patients come to the hospital like waves to ask for help, old classmates, you don't see how helpless these people are. It is said that if a soldier is afraid of death and retreats, then expose the people behind him to the enemy and let the enemy slaughter. ”

"And we doctors and nurses are peacetime soldiers, and when we retreat and become deserters, the patients behind us will be directly exposed to the disease, and let the butcher's knife of death cut their lives. I really can't do this, I'm not very noble, I don't have much greatness, I'm just an ordinary doctor, if you are a doctor, you have to save lives, it's not a slogan. So let me stay and stand on the last shift. ”
