By the time Jiang Yanyan brought the lard, the 120 ambulance had not arrived yet, and the child's parents were already extremely anxious.
The child was placed on the table. Although there was a down jacket underneath, he was not allowed to move. The child kept crying, which made people even more worried.
If a nail is swallowed by such a young child, it may affect the stomach and intestines whether the child moves around or cries.
Yun Heng ground lard, honey, saltpeter and magnet into powder and mixed them together to form a sticky paste.
"Give it to the child."
Yun Heng handed the porcelain bowl to the child's mother, who fed it to the child with a spoon. Because honey was added, it was very sweet. The child stopped crying after taking a bite and seemed very interested, finishing it up quickly.
Five or six minutes after the child finished eating, the ambulance finally came roaring in, and a doctor and two nurses got out of the car.
"Who called the emergency number?"
“I, I…”
The child's mother hurriedly said
"Did this child swallow the nail?"
The doctor walked forward and took a look, somewhat skeptical.
Because the child had just taken the medicine made by Yun Heng, which was sweet with honey, he was very happy to take it. At this moment, the child seemed very well-behaved. The child's mother also wiped the child's face with a wet wipe, and the blood on the nose disappeared.
With a fair face and rolling eyes, he is such a well-behaved child that he doesn't look like he has swallowed a nail.
Although there were some doubts, after getting confirmation, the doctor and the nurse helped put the child on the ambulance. Considering the danger, they asked the child's mother to hold the child and try not to move him.
Although the child had taken Yun Heng's medicine, his parents were still unsure and anxious. They didn't even have time to say hello to Yun Heng before following the ambulance.
"Okay, it's okay, let's all go eat."
After waiting for the ambulance to drive away, Zhou Suyun greeted everyone.
The nurses then dispersed and went to eat.
Zhou Suyun glanced at Yun Heng and said with a smile, "Xiao Yun, you can think of this method. No wonder Doctor Ren wants to learn from you."
"I think I've read it in a book before, and I suddenly remembered it." Yun Heng smiled.
"Okay, let's go eat."
Zhou Suyun smiled. She felt that Yun Heng was becoming more and more mysterious.
When they first arrived, many of them only paid attention to Yun Heng's appearance and actually looked down on him. However, they never expected that this handsome young man would surprise them again and again.
He Haipeng stood by and looked at Yun Heng for a long time, then sighed and went to eat.
After everyone left, Ren Xuedong asked, "Doctor Yun, what was the principle behind that method you just used?"
Zhou Suyun is experienced and although she is not a Chinese medicine practitioner, she guessed it. However, Ren Xuedong did not understand it for a while.
"Iron is afraid of saltpeter."
Yun Heng explained with a smile, "It's actually very simple. The nail is made of iron. I mixed saltpeter and active magnet powder with lard and honey. The food the child ate just now will naturally wrap around the nail due to the attraction of the magnet. With the protection of those things, the originally sharp nail will not be very lethal. In addition, lard can lubricate the intestines, so surgery may not be necessary. The nail can be expelled through natural bowel movements."
The principle is indeed simple, but it was not easy to think of this method under the circumstances at that time.
"Doctor Yun, I'm convinced."
Ren Xuedong was convinced.
He had indeed learned some things from watching Yun Heng perform treatments before, but Yun Heng's performance was always mediocre. It was only with this first aid that Ren Xuedong was truly impressed by Yun Heng.
"Go back to bed."
Yun Heng smiled at Ren Xuedong and then walked towards Liu Jianzhong's mother's house.
On the other side, the ambulance roared all the way and arrived at Xihua City Third Hospital in about 20 minutes. It stopped at the door of the emergency department. A doctor in the emergency department had already been notified and was waiting.
After the car stopped, the doctor in the ambulance got out and explained the situation.
"A boy, one year and six months old, accidentally swallowed a large drawing pin."
The child's situation is not complicated, it can be solved with just one sentence.
The patient was treated by Shi Haihang, the attending physician of the emergency department of Xihua City Third Hospital, a 40-year-old senior attending physician.
After understanding the situation, Shi Haihang first conducted an inspection.
"The nail should be out of the throat. It should have been swallowed. Be careful not to let the child move drastically. Keep him as quiet as possible. I'll arrange an ultrasound first. Go get the order and I'll do it myself."
"By the way, inform the general surgeon that surgery may be necessary."
An intern and a nurse hurriedly took the child's father to go through the payment procedures. The child's mother accompanied him and was still very anxious. She didn't know whether the method at the community hospital would work.
The doctor and nurse took the child to the ultrasound room, where Shi Haihang was already waiting.
After applying the coupling agent, Shi Haihang began to explore the child's abdomen very carefully.
An old thumbtack that is slightly larger than a drawing pin is still very conspicuous to a one-and-a-half-year-old child, so Shi Haihang easily discovered what was in the child's stomach.
But after discovering this, Shi Haihang was stunned.
"Doctor Shi, such a big nail?"
A resident doctor nearby was also stunned. The display screen did show that there was a mushroom-shaped object in the child's abdomen, but this object was much larger than what the child's parents described.
"Look more carefully."
Shi Haihang said unhappily.
