The situation at the scene was that crushing injuries were everywhere, which was significantly different from the crushing injuries in car accidents. Crushing injuries are much more serious than crushing injuries because they involve pressure on a large area of the human body.
Complications that are relatively rare in car accidents have become common and often fatal in crush injuries. The most famous one here is the crush syndrome, which is bound to become famous every time an earthquake occurs. The essence of crush syndrome is Rhabdomyolysis occurs when muscles are injured when the body's limbs or trunk are put under pressure, and harmful substances accumulate in the blood of the injured limb. Once the pressure object is removed during rescue, the injured limb will
The body's blood reopens to the whole body, bringing harmful substances to the whole body, which can easily cause the patient's hypovolemic shock, acute kidney injury and death from hyperkalemia.
Compression injuries such as crush syndrome include compartment syndrome, fat embolism syndrome, etc.
Like crush syndrome and compartment syndrome, in order to save the patient's life, amputation is often used in clinical practice.
Even if these complications do not exist, some patients who suffer severe blood loss after their limbs are crushed and buried can only save their lives by on-site amputation to reduce blood loss.
It can be seen that the place where the pressure injury occurred is indeed the main work place of orthopedics.
The death of the injured person is the pain caused by the crushing injury, and the disability of the injured person is also the pain caused by the crushing injury.
This is why Dr. Guan wanted to cry after seeing the scene.
From the looks of it, I'm afraid there are many people at the scene who may not be able to save their hands and feet.
"You know what to do." Grandma Zheng and Grandma Cao knew that the two people who came with her were orthopedic surgeons, so stop talking nonsense.
You must be very careful during rescue operations to avoid secondary injuries to the injured. The most important thing to avoid here are the various fatal complications mentioned above.
Orthopedic surgeons need to look around for usable tools on site. If you have been to an orthopedic ward, you will know that orthopedics without tools is not orthopedics.
The so-called orthopedic tools can be called orthopedic braces or orthopedic brackets. They are orthopedic fixation auxiliary tools that should be considered as much as possible when thanking my classmate for saving his deskmate last time.
In the hospital, the ambulance may bring some professional braces. But at such a scene, they are not available. The doctor can only find some things to use as quasi-braces.
The problem is that it’s dark and the ground is messy, so it’s hard to find anything useful. For example, doctors use the most commonly used and favorite fabrics that can be used as substitutes for bandages and tourniquets. If you don’t have clean towels, you may have to tear off your clothes.
The doctor was busy looking around for something to save the patient.
Xie Wanying heard her father being called out.
"Thank you!"
"Save me, Lao Xie——"
It was the voice of Zhou Sheng and others. It can be seen that Zhou Sheng and his friends were driving ahead and were unable to avoid the accident and were crushed.
Xie Changrong scratched his head with his left hand, wondering if he had heard wrongly. The group of people who looked down on him were calling him for help.
Then, another voice was heard.
"Xie Wanying."
It was the cries of her high school classmates.
"Xie Wanying, come and save Teacher Liu and the monitor." She absolutely didn't believe it. When the minibus her classmates were riding in encountered a sudden accident, the driver braked the car. After the door opened, Captain Jia, who was sitting at the door of the car, was the first to rush out and again
Taking the lead, Liu Hui, as the class teacher, followed closely. Then an incredible scene happened. The landslide directly buried the car door. Her other classmates and the driver were trapped in the car but were saved. The two people who rushed out first were crushed and buried. .
