Chapter 449: The first operation in Africa
It was an eye-opener.
It was the first time for Chen Qi to encounter such a trauma patient, and he was actually pierced through the stomach by a fish.
And this fish is so big, so big that Chen Qi couldn't help but look at it a few more times, and almost drooled in surprise, this is the seafood of the real sect.
Chen Qi is someone who has watched "Animal World", and he knows that this is a sailfish at a glance, but other Chinese doctors have never seen it.
The specialties of Haidong Province are small yellow croaker and hairtail fish, when have you ever seen such a giant fish, put it on a carriage, the visual impact is too great.
If this was a fishing guy in the previous life, he would not be crazy and pull the big fish three times through the door without entering.
Not to mention the little girls, the old ladies, even middle-aged men like Head Qi and He Fule were surprised:
"Hey,, what's this?"
"Such a big fish, you can eat it in a few days, good girl."
"I don't know if this fish is good or not, is it better to braise or steam?"
Where do Chinese people go, or when they see an animal or animal, the first thing that comes to mind is whether they can eat it? Is it delicious? It's really a foodie country.
Chen Qi had a black line on his face: "Please, shouldn't we first pay attention to this dying African fellow?" ”
"Oh~~~"
Only then did everyone react and hurriedly began to rescue.
Those who followed Vivian, except for a few fishermen, it is estimated that the people from the fishing village of the tribe where Vivian is located have come, at least more than a hundred people.
I don't know if these villagers really care about their compatriots, or if they just came to see the excitement.
Anyway, Africans don't have any employment rate to speak of, ploughing the fields, grazing cattle and sheep is a joke, purely relying on the weather for food, or eating relief food, it is estimated that they have a lot of free time.
A group of black family members were crying and shouting beside them, and Chen Qi couldn't understand a word after talking for a long time, so he pulled the translator:
"Let them stop arguing, their brains are big, and they ask how long they have been pricked by fish?"
The interpreter replied after a while: "They say, about 1 hour or more." ”
Chen Qi came to Vivian's side again, measured the artery, and found that the person was still alive, but no matter how much else, he couldn't see it.
The hemorrhagic shock written in the book will have a pale face, which can't be seen on Uncle Hei's face, and the whole body is black and can't be evaluated.
The family members were about to collapse at this time, and they already saw Vivian as a dead man.
In their poor understanding, unless Allah reappears, if the stomach is pierced by a sword, the pillar of this family must be dead.
In Serrarian, there is no such thing as subsistence allowance, and if Vivian dies and loses his financial resources, then the consequences for Vivi's family can be imagined.
Either forced to dig for diamonds in the mountains, or to be a slave for others, with a full meal and a hungry meal, there is no hope in this life.
So a black young woman with very majestic breasts hugged Chen Qi's thigh and cried:
"Doctor, please save my husband, we are willing to be your slaves, willing to serve you like a chief, please save my husband."
Chen Qi shook off a few times and didn't shake off this black sister-in-law, and hurriedly shouted at the translator:
"Let her stop howling, isn't it a delay, this injured person who was hit by a fish bone will bleed to death if he is not rescued."
A few women came over with the translator and persuaded the crazy black sister-in-law, while Chen Qi quickly commanded his subordinates:
"Xiao Yi, quick, I've cut off the length of this fish, you can't take the fish into the operating room, right?"
When Yi Zewen heard this, he took a machete from the side to clean up the yard and chopped it for a long time, but the tip of the swordfish's snout was too hard to cut off.
Seeing that the patient was dying, Chen Qi was also anxious:
"Lao Wang, hurry up, bring the chainsaw, cut and cut, be fast!"
The logistics Lao Wang hurriedly moved a huge cutting machine, which cut off the tip of the swordfish's snout, and Chen Qi shouted:
"Immediately sent to the operating room, Chen Li monitored vital signs, and Yang Xiuxiu prepared surgical instruments; Lao He, you immediately prepare emergency anesthesia, a dead horse as a live horse doctor, we must start the first shot, we have sailfish to eat, if we can't cure it, we eat corn paste every day! ”
The condition was an order, everyone acted immediately, and several doctors pushed the emergency bed and put Vivian on it.
As soon as Wei Wei'an moved, blood flowed out of the wound, and Chen Qi looked at the good guy, this black uncle's blood was really strong.
Yi Zewen was just about to hold gauze with his bare hands to compress and stop the bleeding, but was stopped by Chen Qi:
"Xiao Yi, wait, go back and wear gloves and come to the rescue, in the future, if you rescue your fellow Africans, everyone must wear gloves, have you heard?"
Although the doctors present did not understand very well, the words of the leader were orders, and they could only obey resolutely if they did not manage and did not understand.
Chen Qi turned back to look at the crowd of onlookers:
"Who, translated, you immediately notify the villagers, let them all line up, a few of you, immediately give them blood type, and then draw blood, I need a lot of blood for rescue here."
When Chen Qi was in Huangtan Health Center, he rescued a girl with heavy bleeding, asked everyone to donate blood, and then directly injected it into the patient's body.
当时他还是挺犹豫的,毕竟这是违规操作,虽然可以救命,但也有一定的风险。
Now it's a different story in Africa, a country that probably doesn't even have a legal order, let alone a medical practitioner's law.
With fewer medical restrictions, doctors are bold and dare to let go of their hands and feet to save patients and fight for a chance to survive.
Otherwise, there are too many rules and regulations, and doctors will not risk resuscitation in order to protect themselves.
If it is troublesome, almost 99% of doctors choose not to save between being able to save or not, and the patient has lost the last hope.
As soon as the interpreter heard that Vivian was in critical condition, he quickly ran to the fishing village by the sea to call for someone.
Chen Qi quickly ran to the operating room, ready to sterilize and operate.
It was his first surgery in Africa, and he was desperate for success. Besides, so many doctors in the Haidong Provincial Medical Corps are watching, and he has to show his hands, otherwise how can he control people in the next two years?
The operating room is not completely finished, and even the windows are not installed, and the African monsoon is accompanied by dust, and the humidity of the sea water blows into the operating room.
Chen Qi didn't care about these anymore, for him, it seemed like he was back in the simple operating room of Huangtan Health Center.
Oh no, it's actually better than the Huangtan Health Center, where all the equipment used is second-hand, and even the operating beds are built by the carpenters themselves.
Anyway, now it's foreign aid, all the equipment is brand new, the state provides it, and it will definitely not fool people.
Although it was the first time for everyone to work together, everyone was very skilled.
After Chen Qi finished detoxifying and put on the surgical gown with the help of Chen Li, He Fule reported:
"Dean Chen, the anesthesia has been completed, and the operation can begin."
Yi Zewen also reported on the side: "Dean Chen, the disinfection is complete." ”
Yang Xiuxiu acted as an instrument nurse and also said softly: "Dean Chen, all surgical instruments and equipment are ready to graduate." ”
Chen Qi nodded: "Okay, then the first operation of our Haidong Aid Africa Provincial Medical Corps will begin." ”
"Chen Li, the matter of infusion and blood transfusion is handed over to you, you must be fast!"
"Okay, Dean Chen!"
At this time, the head of the medical team, Qi, also rushed to the operating room, originally he was outside to discuss the follow-up work with the local Ministry of Health officials, but when he heard that there was an emergency rescue in the camp, he couldn't sit still and rushed back.
"Chen Qi, how is it, are you sure, this is our first operation, more than 100 African villagers outside are waiting for the results, and even the officials of the Cypriot Ministry of Health have already come."
Chen Qi thought to himself that I haven't had surgery yet, and the devil knows if it's sure.
One is that I don't know what the situation is inside the abdominal penetrating injury, and the second doesn't know how much blood loss has reached, how can this be said well?
But Chen Qi has been the dean for a few years, and he is not a straight man, so it is appropriate to give confidence to the leader.
"Qi, don't worry, I will definitely do my best, you see that the position of this fish bone is in the left abdomen, in terms of anatomy, in addition to the intestines, it is the kidney or spleen in the back, the patient is currently in shock, I need to open the abdomen immediately."
When Qi Yunming heard this, he nodded again and again:
"Okay, let's get started."
Chen Qi didn't say much, walked onto the operating table, picked up the scalpel, and then Chong Yi Zewen nodded, regardless of the fish bones, and opened the abdominal cavity first.
Blood flowed out, and the operating room was immediately filled with the smell of blood.
The first step is not to pull the fish bones, but to know which organs the fish bones have pierced, and then temporarily block the blood vessels that supply blood to the abdomen, so as to avoid heavy bleeding.
In any surgery, heavy bleeding is a natural enemy and often determines whether the operation will be successful or not, so it is very important.
After Chen Qi opened his abdominal cavity, he breathed a sigh of relief:
"It's okay, the kidneys and spleen are fine, but the sigmoid colon is pierced, it is estimated that the repair will not work, I have to cut off a broken intestine."
This operation is not very difficult for Chen Qi, even Yi Zewen should be able to win it easily.
As long as a large amount of blood and fluid are replenished during the operation, vital signs are maintained, and the anti-infection and anti-inflammatory drugs are carried out in time after surgery, most of them can still survive.
But what Chen Qi didn't know was that the operation that was not very difficult for him was simply as difficult as heaven for this group of black uncles who were basically in a primitive tribal state.
For them, an ordinary, small appendicitis and kidney stones may kill them.
In the camp, a group of black uncles all showed their arms and began to donate blood.
In the operating room, Chen Qi is like a flying knife, striving to remove the fish bones in the shortest possible time, remove part of the sigmoid colon, and then do intestinal anastomosis.
After this process, 3 hours passed.
When Chen Qi came out of the operating room, the camp was already densely packed with black African fellows, all of whom were eager to look at the chief surgeon.
A little old man dressed in colorful clothes and like a chief stepped forward and asked eagerly:
"Doctor, has the patient been saved?"
Chen Qi smiled: "I have been saved, but I haven't passed the danger period yet, I have to stay with us for anti-infection treatment, and I have to change the medicine every day." ”
Wow~~~~
When the interpreter passed Chen Qi's words to the villagers at the scene, the group of black villagers all jumped up, and then began to sing and dance under Chen Qi's stunned eyes.
The family members rushed up again, hugged Chen Qi's thighs, and said a lot of words of thanks.
Officials from the local Ministry of Health also held Qi's hand tightly:
"Thank you, thank you for sending such an excellent medical team, I thank you for my country, and we will definitely cherish the friendship between our two countries."
The other members of the Huaguo medical team also applauded.
The warm atmosphere is contagious, and when they come to an unfamiliar environment, these medical staff are actually not at ease in their hearts, they are afraid that they will not be able to adapt to the environment, and they are afraid that the locals will not be friendly.
Now Chen Qi has made a good start and has been strongly welcomed by African people and officials, which has also put down most of everyone's hanging hearts.
Chen Qi was wearing a surgical gown, and after watching the folk dance of this group of African villagers for a while, his face turned a little red in the end.
Because these African women don't have any clothes on their upper bodies, they just hang some ornaments there, and when they dance, the two lumps of flesh on their chests are all exposed, and they shake and shake with the dance, and they look like vibrato.
The Chinese people pay attention to indecency and don't look at it, Chen Qi quickly removed his eyes.
I don't know if I don't see this, but my eyes light up when I see it, because the chef Lao Zheng is sprinkling ice cubes on the swordfish to keep it fresh.
As a chef, the most unsightly thing is that the ingredients are wasted, especially the chefs in Huaguo, who have been hungry for a few years, how can they give up such a big fish to rot.
So Lao Zheng asked someone to help, put this giant swordfish of more than 200 catties into cold water, and took ice cubes from the freezer in the camp, and kept it fresh.
Chen Qi was excited when he saw it, this is a gift from nature, the freshest seafood delicacy that he can't usually eat.
So he called for a translator: "Go, help me ask, how much is that swordfish?" I bought it. ”
The interpreter ran over to ask the family, and the family members excitedly gestured with their hands, and then the interpreter said:
"They said they didn't want money, and they gave it to our medical team, which was their gratitude, and in addition, they said they didn't have money, so could they use the caught seafood to give it to our medical team as medicine?"
Chen Qi really didn't know whether the medical group charged for aiding Africa or not.
Anyway, he only knew that his subsidies for the past two years were all issued by the original unit, and all the drugs were provided by China.
At this time, Head Qi explained:
"In fact, we are helping the African people for free, but in order to ensure the normal medical order, we will still charge a certain fee, but all of them are cost prices and cannot make a penny. In addition, we also have to organize free free clinics on a regular basis, so that we can send doctors and medicines to them for free. ”
A doctor next to him asked:
"Then why don't we all do it for free? Looking at the conditions of the people of this country, it is estimated that they will not even be able to pay for the cost. ”
Head Qi smiled helplessly:
"It's not that it can't be free, but I don't dare to be free......"
