Chapter 198
Cough cough cough!
A violent coughing sound sounded in the rescue room. The old man was trembling and his face turned red.
Seeing this scene, Xiao Chenguang didn't stop, and even slapped harder.
The withered body crackled as Xiao Chenguang patted it, and the crisp sound echoed in the room.
Lin Gaoyang watched with fear, and the nurses did not dare to say anything. They could only operate according to Xiao Chenguang's doctor's instructions just now.
Only Gong Liang was explaining something to his family members in a low voice, seeming to soothe his excited emotions.
"Gao Yang, bring the paper, the patient's phlegm is coming up."
As soon as he finished speaking, the old man coughed violently again, and then he coughed out the things blocked in his lungs.
"Slow down, slow down."
Thanks to Xiao Chenguang's reminder, Lin Gaoyang reacted and helped the old man wipe the corners of his mouth.
At this time, the old man had slowly opened his eyes.
"I...what's wrong?"
The old man was breathing heavily, as if he had just come to his senses, and the wheezing sound gradually became quieter.
This scene made everyone amazed.
Director Xiao just patted the old man who was originally unconscious. He woke up even before many rescue measures could be used. This was incredible.
"Boss, is this lung vibrating and phlegm elimination and postural drainage?"
It was also the first time Lin Gaoyang saw him, so he asked.
Seeing that the old man's condition was gradually recovering and the remaining measures were being taken, Xiao Chenguang said a few words.
"Although the old man was sweating a lot because he was holding his breath just now, his body temperature is very high and he has a lung infection."
Speaking of this, the nurse who was taking the temperature on the side took the thermometer out of the old man's armpit, looked at the scale, and immediately said in surprise.
"Director Xiao, the old man's body temperature is 41°C, which is already in the ultra-high fever category."
According to the classification of human body temperature, fever is also divided into low fever, moderate fever, high fever and ultra-high fever.
The old man's current body temperature is already at the highest level, indicating that the infection is serious.
"Boss, that means his coma is related to the fever?"
"more than."
Xiao Chenguang continued: "The old man has chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and the carbon dioxide in his lungs is discharged slowly. Now due to lung infection, sputum accumulation will accumulate in the lungs, causing carbon dioxide that cannot be discharged, leading to coma. "
After hearing this, Lin Gaoyang suddenly realized.
"So, apart from having a fever, the old man's red face is mostly caused by carbon dioxide retention."
"Yes, that's true."
Xiao Chenguang nodded. At this moment, the old man's intravenous access has been established. With the symptomatic treatment of drugs, the situation is much better than before.
"Old man, did you feel like you had phlegm that you couldn't expel just now, and you were feeling uncomfortable holding it in?"
Xiao Chenguang leaned into the old man's ear and asked about the situation.
"Yes, yes, yes, I had a stomachache. I just came to the hospital and suddenly felt out of breath. It was like I had been to the King of Hell."
The old man talked about his feelings just now, with a bit of fear in his eyes, as if he had a feeling of surviving a disaster.
"Doctor, thank you. I was panicking just now. Fortunately, I am in the hospital. If I were at home, I would never dare to think about it."
The family members on the side quickly came over to thank him.
He didn't know that patting on the back was also rescuing a patient. He almost became anxious when he saw Xiao Chenguang patting the old man just now.
If it weren't for the explanation from the doctor next to him, he would have rolled up his sleeves and looked for trouble as he lost control of his emotions.
Fortunately, there was no one from above. Otherwise, if the rescue was delayed, my father's life would be in trouble.
The family members suddenly felt a little more guilty and thankful.
"The technique I just used is called lung vibrating and phlegm elimination. It mainly taps the lung areas on both sides of the patient's back with the palm of my hand. This can promote the movement of ciliary tissue on the lung surface. As long as the method is correct, phlegm and inflammation can be naturally discharged. ”
Xiao Chenguang picked up the stethoscope and listened to the lungs on both sides of the old man's lungs.
There are fewer vesicular sounds and rales than before, but there are still a few phlegm sounds in some deep tissues.
After briefly explaining the situation, Xiao Chenguang once again performed a more detailed method of invigorating the elderly's lungs and eliminating phlegm in front of everyone.
Since the old man's situation was not so urgent at this time, every step Xiao Chenguang took was gentle.
Only then did they discover that Xiao Chenguang's phlegm elimination technique was very special.
There are two upper and lower branches of the left lung, and three upper, middle and lower branches of the right lung.
He covers everything.
From the bottom of the lungs to the top of the lungs, from bottom to top, the force is precise and the frequency is uniform in every part.
With his rigorous technique and his constant tapping, the phlegm hidden deep in the bottom of the old man's lungs moved upward bit by bit.
Soon, the old man seemed to feel this movement and coughed violently again.
He was coughing violently, as if he could cough up his lungs, which made the family members in other wards outside the room worried.
"Is the old man in the room okay? When I pushed him in, I thought he was in bad condition."
"With Director Xiao here, it should be fine. Besides, there are so many doctors and nurses guarding the room, so we don't have to worry about anything."
Just as they were whispering, the coughing in the room suddenly stopped.
"Director Xiao, the patient's blood oxygen saturation is already 100%."
In the room, the nurse who had put an oxygen tube on the old man was surprised to find that the blood oxygen saturation level on the monitor, which was hovering around 90, went directly to 100.
The old man after coughing also clearly felt changes in his body.
Not only was my breathing easier, but I didn't seem to be panicking anymore, and even my bruised lips turned red.
Everyone saw this change.
"Boss, just by tapping the patient's back, you can improve oxygenation and help the old man recover. This method is so useful."
"Director Xiao, if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes today, it would have seemed unreal."
Praise rang out on the scene. Facing the gratitude of the patient and his family, Xiao Chenguang smiled and spoke.
"Physical expectoration only temporarily relieved the old man's symptoms. Now he is in a very weak physical condition. I guess the blood test shows that many electrolytes are already disordered."
"In addition to his history of intestinal obstruction and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, I suggest that after hospitalization, antibiotics should be used for a few days to control the lung infection, and then surgery will be arranged."
"During this period, we must strictly follow the arrangements of the department, control the intake and output, maintain sodium and excrete potassium, and correct acid-base and electrolyte imbalances."
"Only in this way can the elderly be discharged from the hospital in good health."
These words are considered as the director's ward rounds. They are not only health education for patients and their families, but also precautions for the medical staff present.
Easy to understand, simple and clear, with only a few short sentences, the treatment plan for the elderly was explained.
Lin Gaoyang beside him listened very seriously, and the responsible nurse nodded like a chick pecking at food.
"Okay, Director, I will immediately hand over the elderly's condition according to your doctor's instructions."
"We will arrange a bed for the elderly and use the relevant treatment measures for him."
The medical staff recorded every word of Xiao Chenguang in detail and executed it immediately without conditions.
Such efficiency and execution stunned the family members.
Looking at the young doctor in front of him who impressed everyone, he vaguely felt that he looked familiar, and suddenly a promotional video of a city TV station he watched some time ago emerged in his mind.
"Are you Director Xiao Chenguang, who is very good at performing surgery and saving people?!"
The family members came in a hurry just now, and they were all confused, so they did not notice the address of everyone to Xiao Chenguang.
Now as the patient's condition improved, the family members realized that the one who saved his father was Xiao Chenguang, Director Xiao, who had been waiting in line for a while and couldn't even get a number.
The family members' expressions immediately became more respectful, and at the same time they were extremely grateful.
No wonder he was able to wake the old man up with just a few strokes. Such a doctor is really reassuring.
"Director Xiao... Can I ask, will you perform my father's surgery in a few days?"
The family members were cautious, with humility and request in their tone. After getting Xiao Chenguang's affirmation, the whole person was immediately relieved, and his eyes were full of gratitude.
"Okay, Director Xiao, thank you, thank you for saving my father's life, then... I'll leave the surgery in two days to you."
The family members bowed deeply to Xiao Chenguang excitedly, and this scene was also seen by other patients outside the house.
They all felt a little emotional.
You know, they waited in line for a long time before they got Director Xiao's number and got the opportunity for Director Xiao to perform surgery.
The patient in front of them, just because he happened to meet Xiao Chenguang when he was in emergency, he didn't have to wait in line and let him perform the operation himself.
How lucky.
However, if such luck is based on a crisis, the envy in their hearts will be reduced a little.
