"The time between her falling down and me feeling her carotid artery and breathing was more than five minutes, which barely falls within the golden time for cardiac rescue. Thinking back, when I went there to check, I found a lot of foreign matter in her mouth. It seemed that the foreign matter blocked her throat, causing her sudden weak breathing, and external stimulation, which also caused her cardiac arrest caused by her own disease. So I quickly cleared the foreign matter out of her throat. The patient is old, and it is not ruled out that she has cardiovascular disease such as coronary heart disease."
All the medical staff at the scene listened to her clear analysis. Liu Jingyun was surprised: Junior Sister actually remembered every detail so clearly.
"What you mean is--" Dr. Wei put his hand to his chin and pondered her words.
Xie Wanying concluded: "Perhaps the time when her heart actually stopped beating and the time when I gave her the first CPR were less than one minute apart, so the CPR was very effective."
When a patient falls to the ground, some of them do not immediately stop their heart. For example, in the case of this patient, Xie Wanying found that this was not the case. Why should we emphasize the time difference between cardiac arrest and cardiac compression? This is helpful for doctors to predict the development of the patient's condition. Some of the heartbeats come back after compression, but it may be that they were delayed for too long and missed the golden time. It is hard to say whether other brain problems will occur in the future.
The reason why Dr. Wei had to ask her was because the patient's symptoms did not match what the patient's family said.
The patient's family said that the patient fell to the ground and did not respond when they called him. It took too long for the doctor to come and perform CPR on the patient. Under such circumstances, the patient's heartbeat and consciousness recovered very quickly, which made people feel a little incredible. Doctor Wei had many questions after listening to the patient's family's story.
Now after finding Xie Wanying and asking her, Dr. Wei understood: the patient did not respond when his family called him because there was something stuck in his throat. The patient's respiratory and cardiac arrest were not complete at that time, but only stopped later.
"Which hospital is she from? Is she a cardiovascular doctor or an emergency doctor?" a nurse asked Dr. Wei.
...
...
As soon as the professionals heard it, they knew that Xie Wanying was well-trained in describing the patient's condition in an orderly manner, and she might be a trained specialist.
Doctor Wei blinked and looked at Xie Wanying's face again: After all, the person in front of him claims to be a medical student.
Observing her face under the light, she looked very young, like a student. Doctor Wei asked, "You said you were studying. Are you going to graduate this year?"
"No, senior. I have just started clinical internship and I still have two to three years to graduation." Xie Wanying replied.
A newbie who just entered the clinic?
Not only Dr. Wei, but everyone else present turned around to look at her.
"An intern? Which medical school?"
A group of people were whispering.
"Doctor Wei." The nurse outside ran in and reported, "Should we notify the neurosurgery department to come down and treat the patient with the head injury?"
"Yes." Doctor Wei turned around and asked, "Why, they haven't come down yet?"
"They called and asked if you had done a head CT scan?"
"Let them come down first. He has been sent for a CT scan. They will clean and suture his wounds immediately. He is conscious and his pupil's light reflex is fine for the time being, but there is a lot of bleeding on his scalp and it's hard to stop it with pressure." Doctor Wei became very angry when he said the last part.
