The boss stared at the man and woman without moving his eyes. The nurse's alarm bells rang: What does this mean? Are these two people doctors? It should be. What doctor?
Zhang Huayao took off his jacket and threw it aside. He rolled up his sleeves and walked over to ask Cao Yong and Xie Wanying: "What's going on?"
Hearing that it was Teacher Zhang's voice, Xie Wanying, who was standing at the bedside and continuing to examine the child's mouth, raised her head and replied: "From the inside of the patient's mouth, it is initially determined that the obstruction is not in the child's mouth, and it should not be in the pharynx or throat."
Zhang Huayao stood beside her, listened to her report, opened the child's mouth and looked inside, and asked, "Did you pat his back? Did you do the Heimlich maneuver?"
The Heimlich maneuver is not a pat on the back, which is something many people misunderstand. Dr. Heimlich, who invented the Heimlich maneuver, has been engaged in academic debates over his abdominal impact method, the back patting method, and the chest impact method, arguing over which method is better at saving patients with airway obstruction. This has caused many disputes that have attracted much attention from society abroad.
To be more precise, the Heimlich maneuver is the abdominal impact method that Cao Yong just demonstrated. Many countries recommend the following order of first aid for airway obstruction to medical personnel: First, pat the back five times, then use abdominal impact method, and if that doesn't work, use chest impact method, both for five times. Repeat this process until the foreign body is expelled from the patient or the foreign body cannot be expelled. If the patient loses consciousness and his heart and respiratory system stop showing signs of arrest, the first thing to do is not to remove the foreign body but to perform cardiopulmonary resuscitation.
Hearing that the two of them had tried all three methods mentioned above without any effect, Zhang Huayao sighed inwardly: It is true that both of them are the best medical students in the National Medical Association, and they are executing the methods correctly in full accordance with the guidelines.
The best thing a doctor or medical student should do is to do the most sensible thing at the critical moment. What is the most sensible thing to do? Follow medical guidelines.
"Do you have a bronchoscope? Do you have a laryngoscope?" Zhang Huayao asked the same question as Xie Wanying.
...
...
The nurse who ran to ask him to come and save the patient never expected that the boss would say the same thing as the female doctor. Her tongue was tied and she stammered, "I, I'll go find--"
"Yes, the laryngoscope is here." Lin Liqiong answered loudly and ran over with a small box in her hand.
She was right. Believing Xie Wanying was equivalent to believing in the big boss.
A small black box was placed on the table nearby with the lid opened, revealing the laryngoscope device inside.
A laryngoscope and a bronchoscope are different. As the names suggest, the two have significantly different scopes of action. A laryngoscope is mainly used to examine the larynx, and a bronchoscope is used to examine the bronchi. It should be made clear that the bronchi are not the trachea; the bronchi are branches of the trachea. Why do we need to make this clear? Because a laryngoscope can be used to insert instruments into the trachea for operation, but it cannot reach the bronchi. If the foreign body is stuck in the bronchus, only bronchoscope can be used.
Several doctors glanced at the laryngoscope equipment in the box. Zhang Huayao was about to roll his eyes and said, "What kind of laryngoscope is this? Where did you find it from?"
In fact, Lin Liqiong, who was looking for a laryngoscope, didn't think much about it either. The situation was urgent. She just saw a box with the words "laryngoscope" written on it, and immediately took it over to save people. It is not easy to find a laryngoscope used by ENT specialists in the dental department. Seeing this now, Lin Liqiong was also dumbfounded.
