"The time between when she collapsed and when I touched her carotid artery and when she breathed was about more than five minutes, which was barely considered the prime time for cardiac resuscitation. When I think about it, when I went there to check, I found a foreign object in her mouth.
There were many symptoms, such as sudden weak breathing caused by a foreign body blocking the throat, coupled with external stimulation, which also caused cardiac arrest caused by her own disease. Therefore, the foreign body in her throat was quickly cleared out. The patient was old and could not
Exclude patients from having cardiovascular disease such as coronary heart disease."
All the medical staff at the scene listened to her clear analysis. Liu Jingyun was surprised: the junior sister actually remembered every detail so clearly.
"What do you mean-" Dr. Wei put her hand on her chin to ponder what she said.
Xie Wanying concluded: "Maybe the time when her heart actually stopped and the time when I gave her the first heart compressions were no more than one minute apart, so the heart compressions were very effective."
When a patient falls to the ground, sometimes it is not said that the heart stopped immediately. For example, like the patient in front of me, Xie Wanying analyzed that the situation at that time was not like this. Why should we emphasize the time difference between cardiac arrest and cardiac compression? This will help the doctor to deal with this patient.
Prediction of the disease development. Some heartbeat compressions have returned, but the delay may have been too long and the golden time has been missed. It is difficult to say whether other problems will develop in the brain 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 members said that the patient fell to the ground and did not respond to calls. The time lag between when a doctor came to perform cardiac compressions on the patient was too long. Under such circumstances, the patient's heartbeat and consciousness recovered quickly, which is a bit incredible.
.Dr. Wei had many questions after listening to the patient’s family members.
Now when he found Xie Wanying and asked, Dr. Wei understood: the patient's family members did not respond when they called him because the patient's throat was stuck. At that time, the patient did not completely stop breathing and went into cardiac arrest, which was stopped later.
"Which hospital is she a cardiovascular doctor or an emergency doctor?" a nurse asked Dr. Wei.
As long as professionals listen to it, they will know that the orderly manner in which Xie Wanying describes the patient's condition belongs to a well-trained doctor, and she may be a trained specialist.
Dr. Wei blinked and looked at Xie Wanying's face again: Why, the person in front of him claimed to be a medical student.
Looking at her face under the light, she looked very young and looked like a student. Dr. 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 left before graduation." Xie Wanying answered.
New to clinical practice?
Not only Dr. Wei, but also everyone present turned to look at her.
"Intern? Which medical school?"
A group of people were whispering.
"Doctor Wei." The nurse outside came in and reported, "Have you notified the neurosurgery department to come down and deal with the head injury?"
"Yes." Doctor Wei turned around and asked, "Why, haven't they come down yet?"
"They called and asked if they had done a head CT scan?"
"Let them come down first. Now he is sent for CT. They will debridement and suture him immediately. He is conscious and his pupil's light reflex is fine for the time being, but his scalp is bleeding a lot and he can't stop it with pressure."
