Chapter 42: Food Poisoning
At 15 o'clock in the afternoon, the ambulance left Yuncheng Safety and Health Hospital.
This is the 8th emergency patient they sent off today.
In the ambulance, Li Xiyang took off his mask, and his movements and words suddenly slowed down.
Nie Rou and Liu Guodong were also so tired that they were about to collapse.
Sun Xin asked the driver to stop on the side of the road, "I haven't had time to eat since the morning, you are waiting in the car, and I will buy you food." ”
It's past dinner, and many shops on the street are closed, except for one beef soup shop that is still open.
Sun Xin ordered five soups and 10 baked cakes, and several people sat on the side of the road and ate them.
But as soon as I took two bites here, the dispatch room sent a message again: "Transfer a patient with gastrointestinal bleeding caused by stomach cancer to the People's Hospital for blood transfusion." ”
Get in!
Without a trace of hesitation, everyone put down the food in their hands and rushed to the rescue scene.
But unfortunately, when he arrived at the scene, the old man had no vital signs.
The family members wept and heartbreaked.
Li Xiyang desperately called for the system in his heart, but the patient was too old, and all the organs in his body were exhausted.
On the way back, the car was depressed.
Everybody wondered if it would have been different if they had gone a little faster.
At this time, the driver in front of him woke everyone up with a sentence, "Emergency doctor, it's a business that forcibly tamperes with the book of life and death, and it is not 100% successful!" ”
"I failed this time, try again next time!"
The four of them looked at each other and nodded heavily.
Soon, the dispatch room sent a task again: at the Brother Hot Pot Restaurant on Jing'an East Road, a waiter suddenly fainted, please go immediately.
Everyone gathered up their mood and entered the standby state again.
Li Xiyang called the hot pot restaurant and learned that the waiter was vomiting before he fainted.
7 minutes later, the ambulance stopped in front of the hot pot restaurant,
As soon as the four of them got out of the car with their equipment, it rained heavily.
didn't have time to hold an umbrella, Li Xiyang and a few people were drenched in the rain, picked up the first aid kit and wheelchair and ran into the hot pot restaurant.
"It's coming, it's coming, 120 is coming!"
"You're so timely, we're going to die."
The owner of the hot pot restaurant hurriedly introduced Li Xiyang and a few people into their back kitchen.
At this moment, the patient is holding his chin with his hand, bending over and arching on the chair, and the whole person is limp.
Li Xiyang motioned to Nie Rou to prepare a blood pressure monitor and blood glucose meter, and stepped forward to ask, "Where are you uncomfortable?" ”
The patient very weakly squeezed out a few words, "I'm so dizzy!" ”
After saying that, he passed out.
"Auscultation!"
"Draw blood!"
"Take your blood pressure!"
"Quick!"
Li Xiyang quickly assigned tasks.
After a day of running-in, the four of them already have a very tacit understanding.
Soon the results came in, "Captain, all indicators are normal. ”
"It seems that we need to be sent to a nearby hospital for further tests to find out the cause." ”
Li Xiyang shook his head, he had already noticed that the patient's stomach was in a hurry.
[Stomach: This sixth child really dares to eat anything]
[Brain: so confused]
"It's food poisoning, and you have to do gastric lavage right away!"
"Food poisoning?"
The boss's face changed, "Impossible, absolutely impossible!" ”
They are in the hot pot restaurant business, and if the news of food poisoning among employees spreads, the business will not be done.
Li Xiyang ignored the boss, but quickly opened the cabinet on the side.
"Captain, what are you looking for?"
"Salt!"
A man in a chef's uniform on the side hurriedly said, "Here's the salt!" ”
Li Xiyang took the salt bag, "Is there warm water?" ”
"Yes, yes!"
The food delivery man on the other side hurriedly ran over with a kettle.
The boss looked confused, "What the hell are you going to do?" ”
Li Xiyang poured the salt into the warm water and stirred it quickly, while explaining, "Food poisoning is generally characterized by a short incubation period, concentrated time, sudden outbreak, and ferocity.
The clinical manifestations are acute gastroenteritis symptoms mainly of vomiting, diarrhea and abdominal pain, and in severe cases, it can be life-threatening due to dehydration, shock and circulatory failure.
If food poisoning symptoms appear within one to three hours of eating the food, the method of emetic inducing vomiting with salt water can be used to eliminate the toxic food in time to reduce the poisoning.
Add 20 grams of salt to 200ml of warm water, cool and drink at one time, which can achieve the purpose of rapid vomiting. ”
Time is tight, and it's too late to wait for it to cool down.
Li Xiyang directly opened the refrigerator next to him and poured some ice chips into the salt water.
"Open your mouth!"
Sun Xin hurriedly broke the patient's mouth.
Li Xiyang directly poured the cooled salt water into the patient's mouth.
"Gott~"
In the next second, the patient vomited.
But
"Captain, the patient is in a coma again!"
Li Xiyang frowned, "It's very likely to be acidosis." ”
"Nie Rou, inject atropine under the skin."
"Sun Xin, intravenous drip of sugar saline."
"Infusion to maintain electrolyte balance and anti-shock solution."
"Liu Guodong, prepare a wheelchair!"
Quickly assigning tasks to several people, Li Xiyang turned to the chef and said, "Is there milk?" ”
"Yes, yes!" The chef hurried to the back of the counter to get it.
"Captain, why milk?"
After getting along for this day, Nie Rou found that Li Xiyang's every action was meaningful.
Li Xiyang explained, "Milk can protect the gastric mucosa and reduce the irritation of toxic substances to the gastric mucosa. ”
"And the proteins in milk can compete for heavy metal ions, so that the denatured protein is no longer the protein of the human body but the protein of milk,
In the event of heavy metal poisoning, high-protein substances such as egg white, milk, and soy milk can be taken in time to reduce the harm of human protein denaturation caused by heavy metal salts. ”
"So you suspect he's a heavy metal poisoner?"
Li Xiyang shook his head, "It's still uncertain, you need to pass a chemical test to know." ”
"Captain, it's alright!"
Sun Xin's side has opened an infusion channel, and Liu Guodong also hugged the unconscious patient into a wheelchair.
"Wait a minute!"
Li Xiyang braved the rain, rushed out of the store, and returned to the ambulance to get an umbrella.
When the umbrella was retrieved, Li Xiyang's clothes were already soaked, and his trousers were splashed with muddy water.
"Captain, you..."
"The patient can't get wet in the rain, let's go!"
Li Xiyang gave the umbrellas to Nie Rou and Liu Guodong, and he held two umbrellas for the patient and Sun Xin, who was pushing a wheelchair.
Li Xiyang himself was still standing in the rain, and he only held an umbrella for them throughout the whole process.
Ten minutes later, an ambulance took the patient to the nearest Anjian Hospital.
Back in the ambulance, Li Xiyang was soaked, with rain and sweat.
But leaning in the carriage, I can breathe a long sigh of relief.
At this moment, he really felt the words of the driver's master, the emergency doctor is the profession that forcibly tampered with the book of life and death.
Whenever a patient is safely admitted to the emergency room, there is always great satisfaction in the heart.
