Doctor Zheng provided a professional diagnosis and concluded, "He died of organ failure due to being hungry for too long and then suddenly eating too much. This caused a metabolic breakdown in his body."
Refeeding syndrome.
Then they need to control their diet, and you can inform them to do so.
But the problem is that not everyone has a severe case. Severe cases are only a minority. If the notice is issued, mild cases will develop into moderate cases if they are controlled again, and moderate cases will develop into severe cases if they are controlled again.
Zhao Xian: "It's still caused by malnutrition. She's not the only one suffering from malnutrition."
There was no need for a doctor to point out the malnutrition problem among the new arrivals. Anyone who opened their eyes could see that most of them were skin and bones, with sunken cheeks and pale skin.
Doctor Zheng pulled out a chair and sat down, his brow furrowed. "Someone came to see me, and he's seriously malnourished. His weight is far below the minimum standard, he doesn't have enough subcutaneous fat, he's deficient in protein and vitamins, and he has iron-deficiency anemia... he has a lot of problems."
Zhao Xian: "Does the medical department have enough medicine?"
Doctor Zheng shook his head and said, "It's not optimistic. If all the patients are critically ill, our medical department's medication can only sustain the treatment of a maximum of 100 people."
100 people.
Qiao Xuejun listened quietly beside him.
The system previously reported 104 critically ill patients. That meant drug resources were nearly sufficient. All she needed to do was prevent mild and moderate cases from developing into severe cases.
Doctor Zheng: "We don't know how many critically ill people there are in the city right now. Before the disaster, we could have done blood tests on everyone, but now we don't have that kind of resources."
Zhao Xian gave clear instructions: "First, use the crude method to investigate. Find out the specifics and treat accordingly. Measure weight, feel pulses, whatever you want. First, find out the severity of this group of people. Then, provide them with medical intervention and dietary guidelines."
Doctor Zheng hesitated: "What if we find out that there are too many..."
He didn't dare to investigate. He had finally managed to bring back so many people. If this was the case, then... he couldn't imagine it. Too many patients would be a huge blow to the stability of the base.
Zhao Xian left no room for doubt: "Don't prejudge the outcome, find out first. If there's a problem, solve it."
The people were brought back, no matter how stupid it was.
Doctor Zheng: "Got it!"
With Zhao Xian's support, Doctor Zheng could do his job with full confidence.
