Chapter 520 The Scale of Life and Death
So what would it be like if you learned the entire course, mastered it, and became proficient?
Solving the bleeding problem is like getting a cheating device for obstetricians and gynecologists. It is so useful!
With great difficulty, Xin Yue came back from her excitement and turned her attention to the mother.
The dead baby was taken out, and the rest of the womb was filled with a mixture of amniotic fluid and blood.
She sighed and looked helplessly at the blood recycling machine pushed over by the nurse: "This kind of blood cannot be recycled and reused."
Both she and Director Leng had often used this kind of equipment in Beijing before, but this was the first time she saw it in Tibet.
The one in front of her looked slightly different from the ones she had used before, but it was still the same thing at the core. She thought there was nothing she could do about this kind of contaminated blood.
Unexpectedly, Leng Qi did not agree with her words.
"This blood recycling machine is different from the ones we used before. Even if the blood is seriously contaminated, after recycling and cleaning, it can be restored to autologous blood and directly transfused."
"How is this possible?" Xin Yue was extremely surprised. If there really is such a good thing, then the threshold for blood recovery would be equivalent to a huge drop, which would be good news for trauma patients.
"I didn't believe it before. But it is the fact. This device from Miao Technology is simply amazing."
As Leng Qi spoke, he operated the negative pressure suction device to suck the fluid in the uterus into the blood storage tank, and then go through a specific centrifugal cleaning process to separate the waste fluid and then infuse the clean blood back into the patient's body.
On the monitor, the patient's blood pressure continued to rise, and soon returned to 100/75, and his heartbeat became more and more stable.
At this time, everyone in the operating room dared to take a long breath of relief.
The life of the mother is now basically guaranteed.
But things aren't quite over yet.
After the amniotic fluid and blood were sucked away, the uterus and placenta, already covered with blue-purple ecchymosis, were revealed.
This is because the postplacental hematoma increases and the pressure increases, and the blood infiltrates into the uterine muscle, causing muscle fiber separation, rupture and degeneration. When the blood penetrates into the uterine serosa layer, it is commonly known as uteroplacental stroke.
Xin Yue has rich experience in this situation.
The mother was injected with anticoagulant factors and oxytocin, the placenta that had already peeled off was removed, and the wound on the peeled surface was sutured. Then gauze soaked in hot salt water was removed and massaged to assist uterine contractions.
After some hard work, the uterus gradually began to contract on its own.
This means that the last resort - hysterectomy will not be used.
Everything is changing for the better.
"That's it." Xin Yue let go of the massaging hand and said happily: "The blood pressure is under stable control. The operation was successful, and now all that's left is sutures."
"Yes." Leng Qi also smiled: "I didn't expect that acupuncture and moxibustion to stop bleeding can be so effective - I will also take the initiative to sign up to learn it in the next issue!"
The instrument nurse handed over the needle holder. Xin Yue was about to reach out to take it when her heart suddenly shook violently, her vision went dark, and her body fell softly to the ground.
"Dr. Xin!" Exclaims rang out in the operating room.
Gan Yi was outside the operating room, accompanied by Duoji who acted as a translator, comforting the patient's family members.
This was a dark-faced and red-faced Kham man, with his hair covered in small braids and a red hero's knot underneath. He looked quite mighty, but he was crying profusely.
