Chapter 427 Another experiment [seeking a monthly ticket
After Wang Jinbo vomited violently, the medical team performed a gastric lavage on him to clean out all the 50 grams of soil he had eaten. After that, his heart rate, blood pressure and other vital signs slowly dropped to normal and high levels.
All ten patients who participated in the experiment had this result. After eating soil, they developed food poisoning symptoms, abdominal pain, and vomiting, and six patients were accompanied by vomiting blood.
The medical team then performed gastroscopy on all ten patients and found that the esophagus and gastric mucosa of the patients who vomited hemorrhage had ruptured bleeding sites. This should be acute upper gastrointestinal bleeding caused by them swallowing soil too quickly. The medical team immediately stopped the bleeding.
treatment, and infusion of plasma and glucose.
Acute upper gastrointestinal bleeding is not a serious matter, but what is more serious is the change in the patient's mental state.
After the experiment, ten patients were so agitated that they were close to losing their minds. Five patients, including Wang Jinbo, needed diazepam injections. They had previously shouted that they wanted to eat not this kind of dirt, but another kind, and they cursed the doctors and nurses.
By deceiving them, you want them to die, and you are killing them.
If the patient simply has no appetite or even cannot eat, he or she can still survive by injecting intravenous nutrition solution.
But mental psychology is another aspect. In addition to sedation treatment, the next step is to immobilize the patient's whole body, artificially coma, and damage the nerves...
Even though the medical team has the best resources, it doesn’t have many means.
Si Kouxian has experienced this kind of dilemma again. Patients with epilepsy have to scratch when they feel itchy, while patients with locustosis feel hungry and have to eat specific soil. The two may be based on the same principle.
The patient's spirit is affected by some kind of ritual and some kind of power.
In fact, this influence comes from the mutated area.
The mutated area is there, no matter what role it is playing, the Tianji Bureau has no way to end it for the time being.
Should the patient be given that abnormal soil to eat? What kind of nerve damage should be done? A lobotomy?
The plans for these clinical experimental projects have been put on the command center's podium. Destruction and resection will cause irreversible and permanent damage, and feeding abnormal soil may cause the patient's condition to progress to the next stage.
Through the previous autopsy of Principal Cui, the medical team had a question: Did the patient eat mud because he was infected with parasites, or was he infected with parasites due to eating mud?
Now Director Wang and his colleagues have another question about their symptoms. The patient desires to eat abnormal soil. Is it because of the insect eggs in the mud, or is the soil just fine?
The abnormal wasteland was quite large, and there were a lot of insect eggs in some soils, but not all of them.
The first question cannot be clarified directly now. A normal person would not suddenly eat mud, and there are more than 300 missing people. They should have been mentally affected before eating mud. But there is no clue to show that Principal Cui
What was your state before eating mud? When did you eat mud for the first time?
But if we can figure out the second question, then we almost have the answer to the first question.
If the patient is mentally affected and is driven to eat the eggs of different locusts, the eggs will be infected with parasites, and the parasites will drive the patient to eat more soil.
If it is such a pathological process, then no matter how much ordinary soil or abnormal soil is eaten, as long as the eggs are not eaten, it will not develop to the next stage. This also means that these patients infected by Principal Cui do not yet have heterolocust parasites in their bodies.
Or any physically transmissible pathogen.
In this case, as long as they are not exposed to the eggs of the different locusts and these patients are transported out of Mobei, their epidemic situation will be controlled.
As for treatment, you can also look at the abnormal soil and whether Mobei soil can satisfy them.
However, if these patients are mentally affected and have parasites in their bodies, they can hatch, grow and reproduce as long as they eat the corresponding soil.
Or Principal Cui became infected after eating the eggs and became a carrier, but new patients infected by him do not need to inhale the eggs for the parasites to appear in their bodies...
This is the worst case scenario, harder to understand and harder to control.
The Secret Bureau has no control over where the more than 300 missing people have gone, nor is it sure what is special about the abnormal soil other than the presence of insect eggs.
Because judging from the results of soil composition testing, the "abnormal soil" is no different from other wasteland soil in Mobei, and there is no nuclear radiation.
In view of the current critical situation, the command center still issued an order to conduct this clinical experiment.
We need to do experiments to know what the results will be.
It was past ten o'clock in the evening on March 17, and the isolation base was still busy. Wang Ruoxiang rubbed her temples and continued to cheer up.
There are six patients participating in this experiment. Four have just done the experiment of eating ordinary soil, two have vomited blood, two have not, one of them has been injected with diazepam, and two patients have never eaten ordinary soil.
of.
Since the mechanism of locust disease transmission is unknown, teachers and students witnessed and listened to Principal Cui's self-destruction.
Patients who eat abnormal soil may produce bugs, which may then self-explode and cause infection, so this experiment must be conducted carefully. Monitoring of the high-level isolation ward where the six patients are located will continue, but the command center will not watch the real-time situation.
Not even everyone on the medical team is watching or walking into the ward whenever something happens.
There were only three people on the front line of this operation. They were all watching the surveillance and entering the ward, and they were all mentally prepared for the possibility of being infected.
"I can see the patient's condition, I can do magic, and I also know first aid."
One of them is Wang Ruoxiang who volunteered. She wanted to make some contribution. After being imprisoned for so long, the situation is so serious at the moment. Gu Jun is missing, Wu Shiyu has lost his soul, and the dose equivalents of Deng Ximei and many others on the front line have been exhausted. It is time to
She did something.
Tong Ye agreed to her request. This operation was no less dangerous than walking into a mutated area, but this was what the staff of the Magic Department were here to do.
In addition to Wang Ruoxiang, the other two people are nurse Lin Shizhe and investigator Chen Xiang, both of whom know the old seal.
The six patients are not undergoing experiments at the same time. If there is a big problem at the beginning, there is no need to conduct subsequent experiments.
The first patient in the experiment is named Zhou Kewen, male, 18 years old, a senior high school student. He has eaten ordinary soil, vomited blood and injected diazepam.
At this time, Zhou Kewen was sitting semi-fixed on the hospital bed, his feet were tied and locked, and his hands could move. Although he was sedated, he still couldn't calm down. The door of the ward opened with a bang, and an unmanned car drove in. The door
It was closed again, and the car was empty except for 50 grams of abnormal yellow-brown soil without insect eggs.
"Ah, ah..." Zhou Kewen's heart rate suddenly increased rapidly, and he struggled excitedly. Before the car reached the bedside, he reached out to explore the small ball of soil.
Wang Ruoxiang's voice came from the loudspeaker in the corner of the ward: "Classmate Zhou, you can start eating, try to eat as slowly as possible, so as not to hurt the esophagus again..."
But Zhou Wen didn't seem to hear it. He grabbed the dirt with his trembling hands and stuffed it into his mouth, his expression almost crazy.
