Chapter 378: Like an Ant
"Hey, I don't feel right, there seem to be a lot of ants crawling on my body."
He said that he was uncomfortable, and he wanted to wait for the concern of his companions, but the workers sitting next to him also began to complain, "I'm not right, I'm flustered, it can't be that I drank too much, I've drunk three glasses." ”
Another worker said, "I've had three and a half drinks, and I'm a little flustered now, and my eyes look blurry, and I'm not drinking so much." ”
"I'm also flustered, my heart is beating hard."
"I feel disgusting and don't want to eat it, the more I eat this mutton, the more disgusting it becomes......"
A table of 6 people was originally eating hotly, but now they are all starting to feel uncomfortable.
6 people feel that something is wrong, is there a problem with the food?
The person who had eaten the most suddenly began to vomit, vomiting most of what he had just eaten, and the whole person slid down the chair to the bottom of the table.
The people at the next table noticed something strange and went up to check one after another, and found that the person who had just slipped to the bottom of the table was already pale, and he only had air out but no air in.
Looking at the other people at the same table, they were also pale.
"Boss, what do you think is wrong with these people?" The man at the next table shouted at the back kitchen.
The boss heard the panicked shout, hurriedly ran out, and when he saw this scene, he was immediately shocked into a cold sweat.
Could it be that there is a problem with your own food? Don't kill yourself.
"120, call 120 to save people."
Soon, 120 ambulances roared.
First responders checked the symptoms of the sick workers and found that the man who first vomited and slipped on the ground was no longer alive.
After a few minutes of first aid at the scene, the ambulance crew gave up, pronounced dead, and only put the remaining five symptomatic workers at the same table into the ambulance.
The restaurant owner was anxious, "Comrade doctor, you can't just leave, you take him to the hospital for first aid, he must be saved, he can't die in my restaurant." ”
First responder: "It's too late for you to call, he has no vital signs when we see him, and first aid measures have been taken just now, so you should notify the police about the rest of the matter." ”
The restaurant owner's heart was completely cold, and he thought to himself, this is the end, there are people dead in his restaurant, whether it has anything to do with his own food or not, but this responsibility must not be escaped.
The boss froze in place and didn't dial 110 for a long time, just stared at the first responders with a blank expression and lifted the five symptomatic workers into the ambulance one by one.
Suddenly, the guest at the next table grabbed the emergency worker and asked, "Doctor, I feel numb in my fingers and numb in my mouth, do I have a problem?" You see that everyone at this table is sick, and I don't feel well, I don't know if it's because I got food poisoning from eating something from this restaurant? ”
The emergency doctor was sensitive to the fact that this was likely to be a case of collective food poisoning, since they were eating in the same restaurant, they were likely to eat the same poisonous things, and the person at this table also began to show symptoms, although the symptoms were not obvious, but the course of the disease may be the same as the person just now, and there may be deaths.
The emergency doctor asked the others, "Do you have any discomfort?" ”
The remaining customers in the restaurant didn't know whether they were infected by the atmosphere or really uncomfortable, and began to echo, "It's not comfortable, I'm not feeling well, dizzy, nauseous, and panicked." ”
"I was also flustered, and my mouth was numb."
The ambulance was already overcrowded, so the emergency doctor instructed the others, "You should also go to the hospital, go to the emergency department of the First People's Hospital, and take a taxi yourself, the sooner the better, without delay." ”
——
Lianhai First People's Hospital, emergency room.
The ambulance arrives first, and the chief physician of the emergency department examines the patient's symptoms first.
All 5 were pale, their limbs were cold, and their blood pressure dropped.
Three of them developed severe arrhythmias.
"First give these two people gastric lavage, and the remaining three people with arrhythmia symptoms are filled with 100 grams of activated charcoal with a gastric tube, and atropine, two milligrams."
The chief doctor of the emergency department gave medical orders, and the young doctors and nurses were busy, gastric lavage, gastric tubes, activated charcoal, and atropine injections, and a series of actions were quickly completed.
Suddenly, a young emergency doctor shouted at the chief doctor, "Director, this patient has no heartbeat!" ”
Cardiac arrest?!
The director of the emergency department hurriedly walked up to the patient, and after the examination, he dragged the electric shock defibrillator over to the patient, and the patient's heartbeat was restored after two times.
As soon as the patient's heartbeat returned, another emergency doctor shouted, "Director, this patient has started to go into shock." ”
Before they could deal with the shock patients, the emergency room was flooded with patients who had taken taxis themselves.
When the triage doctor asked, the patients were all from Mengzu Village in the western suburbs, and all of them had eaten in the same restaurant, and suddenly became ill while eating, and the five people who had just been sent had serious symptoms, and the seven or eight people who came later had mild symptoms, but they all had symptoms of numbness of the lips, nausea, and palpitations.
The situation was reported to the head of the emergency department, who asked one of the patients, "What did you just eat?" ”
"It's just that I ate medicinal food in a restaurant, a perfect tonic soup, and mutton stewed with various medicinal herbs, and before I finished eating, I felt numb and panicked."
The director of the emergency department thought to himself, medicinal diet? It's medicinal food again! Yesterday, I just cured a patient who was poisoned by drinking medicinal wine, but I didn't expect more than a dozen people to be poisoned by medicinal food today.
Heart rate disturbances, a drop in blood pressure, a decrease in body temperature, respiratory depression, muscle paralysis, central nervous system disorders, these are typical symptoms of aconitine poisoning.
There is no need to guess, the patients who were cured yesterday and the patients who just came in today must have eaten something mixed with Chinese medicine such as aconitum .
Aconitum contains highly poisonous, although it can be used as a traditional Chinese medicine to treat diseases, but once the amount is not well controlled, it will often eat the dead, and the five workers who just came in look very bad, and it is still unknown whether they can be saved.
The director of the emergency department sighed invisibly and instructed other doctors, "Give oxygen and gastric lavage to patients with mild symptoms, and symptomatic treatment for severe patients. ”
The young doctor, who heard the order, looked out the window at the sky, it was already dark, and asked, "Do you call the CDC now?" Will they come at such a late hour? ”
"Call now, our emergency department is 24 hours, of course their disease control is 24 hours, you explain the situation here, the source of the poisoning is not clear now, maybe more patients will come." This is a public health emergency, and it is their disease control responsibility to let their disease control people investigate. If the number of patients continues to increase, our emergency room will not be able to fit in. ”
