That is, after the pregnant woman's breathing and heartbeat stops, the fetus can survive for about 30 minutes. However, it is too late to wait for 30 minutes before rescuing the fetus. Because four or five minutes after the pregnant woman dies, the fetus' brain cells will be irreversible brain damage due to poor tolerance to ischemia and hypoxia, and the removed fetus may directly enter the brain death.
Based on this situation, once the breathing and heartbeat of a pregnant woman stops, and the doctor continues to perform cardiopulmonary resuscitation for four minutes and fails to restore the self-circulation of the pregnant woman, he must consider immediately taking the fetus. Especially for the pregnant woman who has been pregnant for more than 30 weeks, cesarean section or even hysterectomy is very beneficial to save the lives of both the pregnant woman and the fetus.
The patient's family needs to be given the consent of the operation.
The doctors and nurses on duty here finally knew what the doctors from the Grade A were coming to rescue. The nurse ran out to prepare emergency surgical items.
Dr. Hu turned around and walked out of the emergency room to speak to the patient's family.
The eyes were invisible, and at this time, he dared to talk directly with his family members who might lose control at any time, which made people sigh at the terrible courage of the clinical boss. The patient's husband was waiting for news from his wife outside. When he heard that the doctor had come out, he immediately sprained his ankle and asked, "Doctor, how is my wife?"
How should the doctor say that the patient is about to die at this time? The doctor on duty at the health center hid aside when he saw this. The family members were afraid of death and were emotionally broken and grabbed the doctor and shouted. The main reason was that when encountering such an emergency, they might have one body and two lives. The patient's family should not be mentally prepared to accept the bad news.
Dr. Hu's eyes were blurred and he couldn't tell the expression on the family's face. He could hear his ears that his family was almost crazy. Her mouth opened and she said bluntly without hesitation: "Your wife is probably helpless. So, we are going to have her cesarean section now."
"I know, doctor, please give her surgery and save her."
"Listen to me. We can only try our best to remove the child in her belly. Whether the child can survive after rescued the child will continue to see the subsequent situation. I hope you will agree to let us have a cesarean section for your wife. This is the last chance to save the child in her belly."
"What do you mean, doctor?" After hearing these words, the patient's husband trembled in his throat. "What's wrong with my wife? What child? Don't make a mistake, save my wife first!"
"I can't save it." Dr. Hu spit out these three words, implementing her always scientific proposition, and she has no time to think about how to consider the mood of her family members like Du Haiwei.
The patient's husband grabbed Dr. Hu's arms and was so excited that he trembled: "You, say it again."
"I tell you the truth. At the scene of the car accident, we had discovered that she might have died on the spot. We rushed her to the hospital not to rescue her, but to rescue the child in her belly while her breathing cycle had not completely stopped."
Wow, the patient's husband burst into tears.
Dr. Hu was expressionless when he heard the crying opposite him. No matter whether her eyes could see or not, she could not deny the reality that had happened. She had been a doctor for so many years and had never seen anything. But tonight was indeed a special one, maybe she had been the doctor for the last night to save people, so she had to stick to the principles of medicine.
In medicine, doctors can only save lives that can be saved first, and give up lives that are no longer possible to save.
