"Hello, I am Chen Wen's attending doctor." Dr. Cao Yanhua nodded towards Chen Wen's mother as a greeting. "Are you Chen Wen's mother?"
"Yes." Mother Chen nodded, "My name is Shen Qingmei, and I am the chairman of Yuhua Group." She introduced her job position emphatically, "Please don't worry about the cost of treatment. As long as you are interested in the treatment, If it’s beneficial, feel free to use it, I just want my daughter to be healthy.”
Cao Yanhua put down the pen in his hand and said seriously, "You can't buy health. What do you usually feed your child? Do you know how much overweight she is?"
Shen Qingmei's face darkened, "She...is sick this time because of her weight?"
"We can't fully confirm this yet." Zhou Jun came over and said to Cao Yanhua with a frown, "Don't say anything irrelevant to the condition."
Cao Yanhua scratched his head, "Your daughter's condition is basically under control now. But when we performed coronary intervention, we discovered more problems."
"We found a huge thrombus in her renal vein. The effect of surgical removal of the thrombus in this location is not ideal, and we believe that the thrombus came from the veins of her lower extremities, that is, the legs. After finding the cause Before, she was likely to continue to generate more blood clots. Once these blood clots continue to rise with the blood flow, they may cause pulmonary embolism after entering the lungs, which is fatal."
Shen Qingmei's expression became more and more nervous, and the strength of her hand holding the leather bag became stronger and stronger. The blood in her hands, which were originally fat and red, faded little by little, and the veins became prominent.
"We decided to treat conservatively, using low-molecular-weight heparin and warfarin to prolong the coagulation time of blood in Chen Wen's body. Of course, this is also risky." Cao Yanhua took out two pieces of paper from a stack of documents and faced them opposite Shen Qingmei handed it over. "This is the consent form, which lists the risks. The main reason is that the coagulation function is suppressed, so once she develops symptoms of bleeding, the situation will become very dangerous."
"In order to treat my daughter's disease, you need to make her condition more dangerous?" Shen Qingmei said with difficulty, "I don't understand why."
"You can ask a familiar doctor or medical worker." Zhou Jun interjected, "Yuhua Group is a well-known large enterprise in our province, and I believe you know a lot of medical experts. You can definitely go Consult their opinions. However, they will not have any other method. This is the only method we can take at present."
Shen Qingmei took a long breath and tried to calm down, "What happens after that?" she asked, "When will you find out the cause of her illness? I don't think it's a matter of weight, so I'll take her there. I have seen many professional nutritionists..."
"We cannot confirm that weight is the main cause of her illness for the time being, but it is too early to rule out weight as a factor." Zhou Jun shook his head, "Let's put it this way, your daughter's weight is definitely pathological, but we don't know this yet. Whether the illness affects the coagulation function?"
At this point, Sun Lien, who had been listening to the conversation, suddenly noticed something strange. After exchanging glances with the two doctors, Sun Lien asked, "Have you used any weight loss pills for Chen Wen?"
"Slimming pills? No." Shen Qingmei answered firmly, "Although she is a little fat, she is only ten years old! It is impossible for me to give my ten-year-old daughter weight-loss pills..."
"Some over-the-counter weight loss drugs containing additives can also cause these symptoms." Sun Lien interrupted her defense, "For example, some weight loss pills that claim to be all-natural may add senna, rhubarb, knotweed, etc. Drugs. The main active ingredients of these herbal medicines are anthraquinone compounds, which may cause her to have systemic coagulation symptoms..."
"I have never used diet pills for my daughter!" Shen Qingmei's reaction was very violent, even a little angry. She glared at Sun Lien, "She is only ten years old!"
"Weight loss pills?" Chen Wen's head teacher walked into the emergency room, ready to hand over the information in her hand to Shen Qingmei. After hearing Sun Lien's words, she suddenly said, "I have seen her taking pills. At that time, I thought she might have What kind of physical discomfort..."
Zhou Jun suddenly said, "That's enough!" He stood up suddenly and said expressionlessly, "First, follow the treatment plan for acute poisoning of anthraquinone compounds. Intravenous infusion of glucose saline, plus ten milligrams of dexamethasone."
Sun Lien nodded. This is the standard method for treating senna poisoning. Because Chen Wen was given warfarin for anticoagulation, the common vitamin C in the compatibility of dexamethasone injection was deliberately removed by Zhou Jun. The two effects conflict with each other. , which may cause the clotting time to continue to shorten.
Zhou Jun looked at Shen Qingmei, who looked angry, and explained calmly, "We still need to consider the possibility that Chen Wen bought and took weight-loss drugs privately. The treatment of acute poisoning by anthraquinone compounds does not have serious side effects. If Of course it's best if it's effective. Even if it's ineffective, the damage to her will be within an acceptable range."
"I have never used any weight loss products for her. I don't think there is anything wrong with my daughter." Shen Qingmei calmed down. She wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and said with a trembling voice, "Her diet has A dedicated nutritionist is in charge, and the amount of exercise every day can ensure that she is fully consumed, but she just... just can't lose weight."
"Pre-adolescent obesity is not a disease." Now it was Sun Lien's turn to comfort the sad mother. He scratched his hair and tried to find words to comfort Shen Qingmei from the knowledge he had learned. "Most pre-pubertal obesity will resolve on its own after puberty. As long as we cure Chen Wen's current problem, she will still have a lot of youth to spend in the future."
"Do you really believe what she said?" Shen Qingmei signed the treatment consent form after the three people took turns persuading her. Then she wiped her tears and left the emergency room. Cao Yanhua was obviously not convinced, "Children will buy weight loss pills by themselves. Eat? Those are not jelly beans!"
"From a medical point of view, controlling a child's excessive weight is definitely not considered child abuse." Sun Lien was very optimistic. "She can detect abnormalities in the child's physical condition, which is already a good performance. It is better than those who feed their children into balls." , I think the parents who are quite cute should be stronger.”
Zhou Jun showed no expression at all. He just shook his head gently and said, "Just do our part. As for other things, let's not worry about them for the time being."
