"Liu Gong, don't shout. It's okay." Someone in the first-class cabin said.
It sounds like the patient is speaking for himself.
"Isn't there a more serious patient on board? Let the ambulance take him to a doctor first."
Is that so? Guo Zihao, who was following behind, felt that the patient could speak without any effort, as if his condition was not serious. Maybe he just called an ambulance to pick him up because of his higher status.
Xie Wanying did not dare to think so.
Boss Zhang cannot be the kind of person who treats his own hospital ambulance as a welcome car. Boss Zhang is a top doctor.
When I walked into the first class cabin, I saw an old man with silver-white temples half lying on the seat, with an airplane blanket covering his thighs to warm his feet.
Stop and listen, the old man's breathing rate is okay, he's not wheezing, his complexion is neither rosy nor as pale as the young man outside, and his lip color is okay. Overall, this patient is not like the three outside. He seems to be calm and collected even when he is ill.
old man.
It seems that this patient's condition may not be considered serious. This is what Guo Zihao thought based on the current situation.
"Bring another oxygen bag and give the patient oxygen." Xie Wanying gave the same instructions on the spot again.
What? Is this patient also hypoxic? Guo Zihao blinked twice, but he really didn't notice it this time.
"It's okay." Even the patient said so this time, telling the doctor that there was no need to make a fuss.
Xie Wanying walked over and persuaded the patient in a doctor's serious tone: "You probably have silent hypoxemia and you need oxygen."
Hypoxia does not necessarily lead to obvious symptoms. Hypoxia caused by different causes has different clinical symptoms. Silent hypoxemia is a special type of clinical manifestation. It does not show the normal symptoms of hypoxia in the early stage.
Oxygen deficiency usually has obvious symptoms of shortness of breath. On the contrary, when in a motionless state, it does not look much different from normal people at first glance. Therefore, it often causes clinical medical staff to miss the diagnosis and misdiagnosis of patients, and makes patients lose their awareness of their own bodies.
Alertness to problems.
Silent hypoxemia is more likely to occur in older people. A major feature of elderly patients is that the initial symptoms of many diseases are subtle and not obvious. Factors such as the aging of the organism and the decline of its own immunity may cause the body to be less susceptible to disease invasion.
The reaction speed is slow and insensitive.
The old man in front of him also had a fever, but his body temperature was temporarily not as high as that of the young patients outside. It was reflected as a low fever, and it was not easy for medical staff to detect it immediately.
Guo Zihao took out the forehead thermometer from the medicine box and hurried over to measure the patient's blood pressure. He saw: it was a moderate to low fever, about 38 degrees 2.
"What are you talking about about my hypoxemia? What's going on?" The old man looked up at the doctor and said.
This old man rides first class and can let Boss Zhang send a car. Even if he calls an ambulance himself, knowing that there are patients outside who need it, he is willing to give up his ambulance to others. How extraordinary is his magnanimity. He is obviously a great person.
big shot.
Therefore, when the old eyes in front of her looked at her as a doctor, there was a light of wisdom hidden underneath.
In front of such a smart and wise man, Xie Wanying said that every word must be explained more carefully and professionally. Only in this way can the patient listen to what she said as a doctor: "Your breath changed when you moved just now. This is a sign of low silence."
