While looking up at the clothing wholesale market building from outside, Xie Wanying was counting the floors.
When she heard the firefighters confirm that the building really only had seven floors, she thought that if she ran from the fourth floor to the rooftop, she would only have to climb three or four flights of stairs. The junior sisters should have run to the rooftop very quickly, but for some reason, there was no news of them reaching the rooftop.
This cast an unpredictable shadow over her heart.
Friends and relatives were trapped inside, and I couldn’t get out, and I was helpless from outside, feeling extremely anxious.
Calm down, calm down. This was all she could say to herself. She patiently waited for good news from the firefighters and her junior sister, then turned around and walked towards the ambulance.
As mentioned before, most of the first wave of people who were able to walk were lightly wounded and walked away on their own. After that, some of them came out slowly on their own or were rescued, or they could not walk and needed help. It is conceivable that their injuries were all serious.
Two ambulances, one with sirens blaring, quickly sent the seriously injured person back to the hospital for emergency treatment.
The doctors at Pinghuai Hospital were delayed due to the incident of the man jumping from the building, and they were ready to bring another seriously injured person back to the hospital at any time.
Before other ambulances arrived, the scene would become a vacuum of emergency care. After consulting with the doctors at his own hospital, Cao Dong immediately unloaded some of the first aid items from the ambulance so that other medical staff who stayed at the scene could help with the initial treatment of the injured.

Xie Wanying quickly joined the first aid team of her seniors and teachers.
The first thing the medical staff on the scene have to do, as in the last accident, is to make an initial diagnosis and prioritize the patient's condition.
The casualties in fire accidents are basically inseparable from burns.
First look at the classification of burn wounds, which are generally divided into four levels according to depth, namely first degree, second degree, third degree and fourth degree.
The simplest and most intuitive way to define these degrees is to observe the surface of the burned skin.
The injured person's skin only shows first-degree erythema, which is the lightest injury and can be healed in a few days.
If there are blisters on the wound surface, it is considered second degree, which can be further divided into superficial second degree and deep second degree.
Third and fourth degree burns will directly change the color of the victim's skin.
If you ask the injured person how he feels, severe burns such as third and fourth degree burns have burned through the nerves, and there is definitely no pain in the wound.
The above is the depth classification. If you want to classify the severity of the injury, you need to make a comprehensive judgment based on the patient's overall condition. The most important reference factor for doctors is the burn area.
The burn area is estimated in China using the nine-point method. For example, the head, face, and neck together account for 9% of the human body surface area, and the lower limbs can account for up to 46%.
Combined with the burn area, burns can be divided into mild, moderate, severe, and extremely severe burns. For example, a third-degree burn area of more than 20% is considered an extremely severe burn.
In fact, we have mentioned before that the most terrible type of burn injury is inhalation injury. In this case, the body surface may not seem to be burned by the fire, and there may be no burn wounds on the body surface. Therefore, as long as the injured person inhales harmful gases that turn into fire lungs and endanger the injured person's life, it is still considered a severe burn.
I saw a firefighter carrying a wounded person. There was no blood or wounds on his skin, but he could hardly move and had to be carried by someone.
"We found him at the back door, lying on the ground motionless," said the firefighter.
In this case, there seems to be no need for a doctor to make a judgment. Firefighters know from experience that it is 99% likely to be carbon monoxide poisoning.
The doctor squatted down and examined the injured person carefully.
