【2891】Troublesome
I saw that an old man was lying on the concrete floor.
"Stroke?"
"Epilepsy?"
It seems that ordinary people can't distinguish the difference between these two diseases.
Stroke is actually called cerebrovascular accident in medicine, generally refers to cerebral hemorrhage and cerebral infarction. Epilepsy refers to epilepsy, which is a disease of dysfunction in the brain.
Are these two completely irrelevant?
Some patients will experience secondary epilepsy during cerebral hemorrhage, and cerebral infarction may also cause epilepsy symptoms. Therefore, it has always been difficult to ensure that a patient is definitely just a disease.
Is this patient just a simple epilepsy seizure or cerebral hemorrhage and cerebral infarction?
What medical staff who are present at the first time should do is to prevent secondary injuries from the patient. Whether for a stroke patient or a patient with epilepsy, there are many fears. The first thing may be to be afraid of secretions blocked due to brain dysfunction, which may be torture the respiratory tract and suffocate.
The elderly patient on the concrete floor kept twitching like a cramped shrimp all over his body, foaming at his mouth, hanging his eyes, and tilting the corners of his mouth.
Squatting beside the patient, Xie Wanying took out the handkerchief from the bag and twisted it into a ball and stuffed it into the patient's mouth to prevent the patient from biting his tongue. At the same time, she wiped the secretions flowing out of the patient to avoid accidentally aspiration.
He took out a flashlight and shone the patient's pupils, and saw that the two pupils were not as big as the size.
Some people nearby called 120.
Xie Wanying was guarding the patient, waiting for the ambulance to arrive, and asked the surrounding people about the situation when the incident occurred: "Has he had a car accident?"
"Ah?" The people at the scene seemed to have not seen how the uncle got sick, and they shook their heads and said they were unaware of it.
Immediately afterwards, a middle-aged woman rushed to the scene when she heard the news, pushed the crowd away and knelt down beside the patient and shouted: "Dad, Dad--" and looked up again, and asked the others excitedly: "What's going on?"
"Did your dad have any illness before?" Xie Wanying asked the family members opposite him.
"No." The middle-aged woman denied on the spot, "My father has always been in good health and has nothing to do. He walked out alone and said he was buying things. Do you know what happened to my father?"
Xie Wanying couldn't say anything, she only knew that she might need to call the police and asked the police to come to the scene to investigate whether there were any signs of a car accident.
Alarm alarm.
Xie Wanying continued to perform physical examinations on other parts of the patient on the spot. Suddenly, she saw blood flowing out from the patient's left thigh, and her brows frowned instantly: Trouble.
"Doctor, another doctor is here."
The onlookers made way again.
A young man in checkered shirt was carrying a bag and squeezed in from the crowd. He saw someone who seemed to be a colleague at the scene to be first aided and asked, "What's the situation?"
"It may be a car accident, midcerebral hemorrhage, and an unknown sharp object is inserted under the thigh. Hurry up and pull out the foreign object first. The injured person who injured the major artery here will be in danger of his life." Xie Wanying said.
After hearing her smooth judgment, the other party was stunned for a moment. When he saw the patient twitching constantly, he understood what she meant.
Generally speaking, thigh puncture can be fixed and sent to the hospital for treatment. However, the injured person's limbs are constantly twitching, and it may not be sent to the hospital. The foreign object punctured into the human body is moved into the injured person's body. Breaking the major artery will cause the injured person's life. Moreover, patients with epilepsy cannot force the fixation, and will directly press the patient into a fracture.
