Chapter 5: Women are weak, but mothers are strong

Just when the nurse was thinking about how to apologize to the family, a light voice came over.

"Okay, the needle is inserted. Help me get a cotton ball and tape to fix it. Don't let the needle slip out again." Wu Xiangdong pressed the handle of the needle while motioning for the nurse to come over and help.

"Ah?!" The intravenous access was established in a blink of an eye, leaving the nurse dumbfounded.

Although she didn't give the patient an injection just now, she had been working for so many years and had completed a lot of difficult punctures.

But in a situation like today, let alone her being unreasonable, even calling the head nurse on night duty would probably not help. After all, for patients who are extremely thin and highly edematous, the difficulty of puncture is a nightmare for them.

"Doctor Wu, I really didn't expect that your medical treatment is very good, and your injections are even more powerful!" The nurse secretly gave Wu Xiangdong a thumbs up, and her admiration was as continuous as the surging river.

Faced with the nurse's praise, Wu Xiangdong raised the corners of his mouth and said with a slight smile: "It's just good luck."

"Really?" The nurse was dubious. After all, luck is also a part of strength. Besides, such a difficult puncture must be more than just good luck.

Although she did not see the whole process of Wu Xiangdong's puncture, she was quite skilled in both the previous exhaust techniques and the current viaduct fixation, and her puncture skills were even better than most people she knew.

But the key question is how could Wu Xiangdong have such rich clinical puncture experience at such a young age? You must know that he has only been in the hospital not long ago, so he should be a complete rookie.

Seeing the confusion in the nurse's eyes, Wu Xiangdong shook his head slightly, knowing that these difficulties were nothing compared to his previous life.

I remember when I was first assigned to the village by Hamada Hospital, I only had a small medicine box with me. Not to mention a fully equipped clinic at that time, there was not even a place to stay when it was windy and rainy, but Wu Xiangdong was stunned with his strength.

With a sense of tenacity, he carried the medicine box and walked around the villagers from ten miles and eight villages one by one.

Wu Xiangdong knew exactly which family was sick and who was sick. At that time, dispensing medicines and injections were commonplace for him and not worth mentioning.

However, while he was working diligently to solve the illnesses of the villagers, someone in the hospital deliberately blocked the news in order to prevent Wu Xiangdong from coming back. As a result, he missed the first national physician qualification examination that year, which forced him to suffer repeated setbacks in subsequent hospital title evaluations.

.

"Back then, you deliberately tried to slander me. You even used me as a negative example at every annual meeting. Isn't it just because you were afraid that I was better than you?"

Wu Xiangdong's eyes gradually turned cold, and he couldn't help but clenched his fists when he thought of those guys who had slandered him, speaking loudly on the stage, with everyone watching.

No matter how many years have passed, Wu Xiangdong is still filled with anger when he thinks of the grievances he felt back then, and cannot let go for a long time.

"Doctor Wu, the ECG monitoring has been connected. Can you see how the situation is?"

At this time, even the nurse on the side could clearly detect the changes in Wu Xiangdong, and her voice was trembling.

"Okay, hard work." Wu Xiangdong obviously realized that he had lost his composure, so he recovered his mind and focused on the patient's treatment.

"Heart rate 120 beats/min, breathing 30 beats/min, blood pressure 198/110mmhg, oxygen saturation 90%"

Wu Xiangdong looked at the values ​​on the ECG monitor and said to the nurse: "Give her another dose of furosemide, insert the urinary catheter and record the hourly urine output."

Through the medication just now, the patient's blood pressure has dropped significantly. Although it is still very high now, it has obviously improved a lot from the high pressure of 260mmhg just now.

The top priority now is to prevent the occurrence of pulmonary heart disease in patients. After all, for pregnant women with pregnancy-induced hypertension, once the burden on the heart and lungs is excessive, acute heart failure and pulmonary edema will ensue.

At that time, there will be no better way than terminating the pregnancy.

"Okay, I understand."

After experiencing a series of emergencies, the nurse gradually caught up with him under Wu Xiangdong's guidance.

Especially after seeing his superb puncture skills, the nurse chose to trust him unconditionally, and even regarded his medical orders as orders, just like a soldier performing the task of an officer, obeying decisively.

Following Wu Xiangdong's instructions, the nurse quickly took out the disposable urinary catheter from the cabinet and began to place the urinary catheter on the patient.

Since disposable catheterization bags were not routinely equipped at that time, the nurse could only open the disposable cotton ball, use sterile forceps to place the cotton ball into the treatment bowl, and then soak it with iodophor.

Paraffin oil, disposable urine bags, physiological saline, and syringes for pre-flushing the water bag must be disassembled one by one for use.

But while the nurse was preparing, a piercing alarm suddenly erupted in the originally quiet clinic, and bright red numbers flashed on the monitor's display, seemingly telling the seriousness of the problem.

"The patient's heart rate is 150 beats/min, and the oxygen saturation is 84%!"

The nurse who was about to place a urinary catheter was startled by the sudden heart rate. At this time, she was in a dilemma. The urinary catheter in her hand was hanging in the air and she didn't know what to do with it.

"Don't be distracted, hurry up and put in the tube, I will take care of the rest."

Wu Xiangdong's decisive words were full of power and instantly stabilized the nurse's mind. She did not dare to hesitate and immediately started the operation.

At the same time, the fierce data on the monitor was constantly irritating Wu Xiangdong's eyes.

"On auscultation, both lungs are filled with moist rales, and the heart sounds are weak and fast. This is a precursor to acute pulmonary edema."

After all, acute pulmonary edema is caused by overburdening the whole body, resulting in an imbalance of cardiopulmonary function, which can cause patients to have extreme difficulty breathing, severe and frequent coughing, and even hemoptysis. Once the attack lasts for a long time, pulmonary encephalopathy will occur and cause death.

Wu Xiangdong put down the stethoscope and twisted his eyebrows into a knot. According to the current situation of the pregnant woman, it is time to consider terminating the pregnancy.

However, at this moment, the unconscious pregnant woman, who had her eyes closed, slowly opened her eyes as if she sensed danger. She turned to look at Wu Xiangdong and said with difficulty: "Doctor, I can do it.

Yes, please don’t give up on my child.”

As soon as Wu Xiangdong said this, before Wu Xiangdong could speak, the man beside him immediately turned red-eyed: "Stop talking, what have you become now, and you are still insisting blindly!"

"I heard everything you said before. I know you care about me, but the child is the flesh that fell from my body. You don't understand the feeling of being pregnant for ten months. I don't blame you, but the child is innocent. This time you

Just listen to me."

Women are weak by nature, but mothers are strong. Maybe she has always played the role of a good wife at home, but when the life of the child in her belly was involved, her unwavering tone left the man speechless for a while.

"Cough...cough!!"

Perhaps it was the last sentence that consumed all her energy. At this time, the pregnant woman lying on the examination bed felt her throat itch, her face suddenly turned pale, and then a mouthful of scarlet coughed out of her mouth.

The pink foamy phlegm looked extremely dazzling when it fell on the dark gray cement floor.

Seeing this scene, Wu Xiangdong's expression suddenly changed. At this time, a sharper alarm sound sounded, and the blood oxygen saturation on the monitor was seen to drop off a cliff.

85%!

66%!

44%!

At this time, the pregnant woman's eyes were wide open and abrupt, as if someone had strangled her neck. Her rapid breathing was whirring like a leaking bellows, and her face was turning blue and purple.

"Acute pulmonary edema is accompanied by respiratory failure. Quickly prepare for tracheal intubation and push the ambulance over. If it were any later, she would have suffocated!"

At this time, Wu Xiangdong's eyes were also red. He had lowered his voice when talking to the man because he was afraid that the pregnant woman would hear him, but he never expected that the man was so excited that the pregnant woman could clearly hear the conversation.

You must know that mood swings are a taboo for pregnant women with gestational hypertension!

"Doctor Wu, please save her!"

Seeing this scene, the man knelt on the ground with a plop. Seeing his wife being tortured to death by the disease, the man had already burst into tears. When he thought of his previous indifferent attitude towards his wife, he immediately regretted it.
