At around eleven o'clock in the evening, Yu Zhiming, accompanied by Qing Ning and Wang Shuisu, rushed to the emergency department of Huashan Hospital.
Feng Sisi chattered and wanted to come along too.
Yu Zhiming considered that her immunity was a little low and the hospital was a place where all kinds of pathogens gathered, so he let her stay at home to rest.
As soon as Yu Zhiming got out of the car, Shen Qi walked quickly towards him.
"Doctor Yu, this patient is 52 years old and has three highs and coronary heart disease. He had a heart attack this afternoon and came to the hospital for thrombolytic therapy."
Shen Qi introduced this in a quick tone and saw Wang Shuisu coming over from another car.
Shen Qi gave her an awkward smile as a greeting, then continued to explain to Yu Zhiming, "The thrombolytic treatment went quite smoothly. Judging from various tests, the myocardial infarction has been effectively cleared."
"However, the patient has been in a coma since receiving thrombolytic treatment at around 5 pm until now."
"We shook him, shouted, and even used pain stimulation, but we couldn't wake him up."
Shen Qi accompanied Yu Zhiming as they hurried into the emergency room building, explaining, "Although the patient's physiological values are within a reasonable range, they are all hovering near the lowest values."
"Electroencephalograms show that the patient is in a deep coma."
"We're worried that the heart attack might have caused brain damage or triggered other pathologies in the body."
Having said that, Yu Zhiming followed Shen Qi into an observation room. Beside the bed, a girl with fashionable clothes, delicate makeup and pretty face came forward in two steps.
"Doctor Yu, thank you very much for coming. Could you please take the trouble to examine my father? Why has he been unconscious?"
Faced with such a girl with outstanding appearance, Yu Zhiming couldn't help but glance at Shen Qi beside him.
Shen Qi introduced with an embarrassed look on his face: "Doctor Yu, this is my friend Qian Ya, a neighbor in the same community."
During his introduction, Yu Zhiming put on medical gloves and began to examine the chubby man on the hospital bed...
Qing Ning and Wang Shuisu stopped outside the observation room together and did not follow Yu Zhiming in.
However, they both saw the girl and heard Shen Qi's introduction of the girl.
Qing Ning looked at the girl critically, moved closer to Wang Shuisu, and lowered her voice.
"Without makeup, I'm definitely not as pretty as you. Maybe I'm not even considered average looking."
"My figure is incomparable to yours."
"Look at her. She's five centimeters shorter than you. Her chest is like an airport, not as curvy as yours."
Wang Shuisu nudged Qing Ning with his shoulder and gently reminded her, "Keep your voice down. It would be embarrassing if someone heard you."
“Didn’t you hear what Dr. Shen said? We live in the same community, and this is the relationship between childhood sweethearts.”
Qing Ning snorted softly and said, "Childhood sweethearts are only as beautiful and flawless as they appear in novels. In real life, it's considered a good thing if ten pairs of childhood sweethearts can become a couple."
"Couples who have been married for 10 to 20 years and then divorce are common. Childhood sweethearts are too familiar with each other and are more susceptible to external temptations."
Qing Ning persuaded again: “Shui Su, if you have feelings for Dr. Shen, be more proactive.”
"I'll have Zhiming create more opportunities for you. It will definitely be no problem to capture Dr. Shen."
Wang Shuisu had been observing Shen Qi, and noticed his concerned look towards the girl Qian Ya, and shook his head slightly.
"Forget it, when it comes to love, let's just go with the flow."
"The past two years have been a critical period for the herbal medicine company. I don't have time for a relationship, and I don't want a relationship to distract me and lower my IQ, which would affect the company's development."
Qing Ning uttered a soft "oh" and chuckled, "It seems you really don't have much feeling for Dr. Shen."
"Otherwise I wouldn't give up so easily."
Wang Shuisu smiled and asked, "When did you develop feelings for Dr. Yu?"
"Have you decided from the bottom of your heart that he is the only one?"
Qing Ning recalled, "I can't really say when I started to feel this way. At first, I was resistant to him, but gradually I stopped being resistant and started to like being with him."
Wang Shuisu said slowly: "This is what love is like, you don't know where it comes from, but it's so deep and lasting."
At this point, she noticed that Yu Zhiming's exploring hands had left the patient's body, so she closed her mouth and listened carefully to what Yu Zhiming had to say.
"Doctor Shen, what are the causes of fainting?"
When Shen Qi heard Yu Zhiming's question, he was stunned. After a moment, he reacted and answered.
"Syncope is a state of transient loss of consciousness caused by insufficient blood supply to the brain. It can be caused by a variety of factors, which can be divided into physiological factors, pathological factors and drug factors."
“The main pathological causes are…”
"Reflex syncope, due to abnormal blood pressure regulation and autonomic nervous system dysfunction, causes the patient's heart rate to slow down, the amount of blood returning to the heart and cardiac output to decrease, and blood pressure to drop..."
Shen Qi's serious answer made Qian Ya very anxious.
She endured it again and again, but finally couldn't help it anymore and interrupted Shen Qi to ask Yu Zhiming.
"Doctor Yu, you've finished examining my dad. What's his condition?"
"Why are you still unconscious?"
Shen Qi spoke first, persuading her, "Qian Ya, don't be anxious or worried. The fact that Dr. Yu had the leisure to examine my basic knowledge proves that your father isn't in serious trouble. We're the ones making a fuss and worrying too much."
"Is that so, Doctor Yu?"
Yu Zhiming snorted twice, and instead of answering, he asked, "What are the physiological causes of fainting?"
Shen Qi replied honestly: "Physiological reasons can be divided into two categories. One is environmental factors."
"Long-term exposure to dry, crowded, and hot environments may cause vasovagal syncope."
After listening to Shen Qi's explanation, Qian Ya was still worried and anxious, but she did not dare to interrupt Shen Qi again.
She patiently listened to Shen Qi continue to answer: "The second is lifestyle. For example, standing for long periods of time, excessive fatigue, excessive stress, hunger, etc., may also cause fainting."
At this point, Shen Qi suddenly reacted.
"Doctor Yu, are you saying that Uncle Qian is in a coma due to physiological reasons?"
Yu Zhiming said unhappily, "There's not a single drop of food in the patient's stomach. Judging from the state of his stomach, he hasn't eaten for at least 24 hours."
Qian Ya gasped in shock at this and questioned, "How is that possible? How could my dad not have eaten anything all day?"
"I called my dad this afternoon and he said he had a small bowl of rice, a serving of mushrooms and choy sum, a serving of stewed tofu, a serving of dried shrimp and winter melon soup, and an apple."
"I also told him not to eat the meat secretly."
Shen Qi quickly stopped her and said, "Qian Ya, don't doubt Dr. Yu's examination results. Dr. Yu said your father hasn't eaten for 24 hours, so he definitely hasn't eaten."
"This also explains why so many of your father's physiological values are hovering at low levels. It's because he's hungry."
Qian Ya couldn't help but ask again: "The question is, why didn't my dad eat for 24 hours?"
"Doesn't he feel hungry?"
Yu Zhiming said softly, "We need to wait until your father wakes up and then ask him."
After a pause, he continued, "Your father's myocardial infarction has been effectively resolved."
"However, the stenosis of his cardiovascular and cerebral blood vessels exceeds 50% in many areas, and in some places reaches 70%. He needs proper treatment."
"Otherwise, myocardial infarction and cerebral infarction may occur."
As people age, blood vessels become harder due to factors such as high blood pressure, atherosclerosis, and diabetes, which can cause severe intimal damage and intimal hyperplasia, which can lead to vascular stenosis.
Generally, if the degree of blockage and stenosis of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases exceeds 50%, treatment is required, and if it exceeds 75%, symptoms may appear.
Depending on the patient's symptoms and the degree of stenosis, treatment such as medication or surgical intervention may be required.
Qian Ya smiled bitterly and said, "It's because my father has serious cardiovascular problems that I strictly control his diet and try not to let him eat meat."
"I didn't expect a heart attack to happen, and I never thought my dad would go a whole day and a night without eating."
After a pause, Qian Ya bowed again and said, "Doctor Yu, thank you for your examination. It has made me feel much more at ease and no longer anxious."
Yu Zhiming nodded lightly, glanced at Shen Qi, and strode out of the observation room.
Shen Qi and Qian Ya hurriedly followed him out and accompanied him all the way to the emergency room building. They then watched Yu Zhiming, Qing Ning, and Wang Shuisu leave in two cars.
Shen Qi sighed lightly and smiled bitterly, "Doctor Yu is going to be angry with me. I made a fuss out of nothing and made him run all this trouble."
Qian Ya apologized: "Shen Qi, I was wrong..."
Shen Qi interrupted, "I don't blame you. You're worried and confused. My medical skills are not yet up to par, and I've disappointed Doctor Yu."
Qian Ya smiled apologetically and then said, "Shen Qi, tell me, why didn't my dad eat for a whole day and night?"
Shen Qi pondered and said, "Long-term dietary control has a certain chance of causing anorexia."
“Anorexia?”
Qian Ya frowned and listened to Shen Qi continue: "Some emotional problems, such as encountering unhappy things."
"Problems with brain nerves, endocrine system, or tumors can also cause anorexia."
Qian Ya continued, "Just now, Doctor Yu only mentioned my father's cardiovascular problems, but didn't say that he had any other problems?"
While they were talking, Shen Qi and Qian Ya returned to the observation room.
Shen Qi looked at the several monitoring instruments in the observation room, including those for heart, brain waves, and blood oxygen saturation, as well as the chaotic noise outside. He said, "Compared to Dr. Yu's dedicated soundproof examination room, this is much too noisy. It's seriously affecting Dr. Yu's examination results."
Qian Ya blinked her eyes and asked expectantly, "Can we wait until my dad wakes up and feels better before asking Dr. Yu to give him a more detailed physical examination?"
this……
Shen Qi said vaguely: "Let's wait until Uncle Qian wakes up and ask him about the specific situation before we discuss the next step."
"If I find any other serious unknown problems, I will ask Dr. Yu to give Uncle Qian a physical examination..."
