At this time, Wu Xiangdong no longer cared about whether the laryngoscope was bright or not. He saw the right moment and used his left hand in vain. Under the influence of the laryngoscope, the field of view of the pregnant woman's upper respiratory tract was maximized.

Wu Xiangdong then used the laryngoscope to press the base of the pregnant woman's tongue and extend it a little inside. Suddenly, a looming mass of flesh-red tissue came into view.

It is about three millimeters thick and stands upward at the base of the tongue. It is as flat as a leaf on a branch and rises and falls with the movement of the throat. This is the epiglottis.

After Wu Xiangdong found the epiglottis, he did not stop. Instead, he tilted the laryngoscope toward the posterior pharyngeal wall. As he continued to penetrate deeper, he came directly under the laryngeal surface of the epiglottis. Then he lifted the laryngoscope upwards with force, and only a wisp of white cricoid cartilage came into view.

This is the glottis in the middle of the epiglottis, and hidden behind the vocal cords is Wu Xiangdong's mission, the trachea.

However, Wu Xiangdong, who was holding the endotracheal tube at this time, did not insert it hastily because he saw that the pregnant woman's epiglottis and surrounding tissues had gradually become edematous, and even some places were crystal clear and could be broken by a blow.

At this time, the symptoms of laryngeal edema caused by acute pulmonary edema in pregnant women, although the glottis was close at hand, seemed to be constantly provoking Wu Xiangdong as the pregnant woman's breathing opened and closed.

But he knew in his heart that he only had one chance. If the intubation failed, the swollen throat would completely seal the entire airway. Not only would he not be able to save the pregnant woman, but it would even hasten her death.

"Doctor Wu, why are you still not moving? The pregnant woman's blood oxygen saturation is still dropping, and it has almost dropped to 60%!"

The nurse was so anxious that she stared at the data on the monitor, as if she wanted to force it to go back up.

However, everything is in vain. The blood oxygen saturation of the pregnant woman is still dropping, even faster than before. There is not much time left for the pregnant woman. But no matter how anxious the nurse around him is, Wu Xiangdong is like a statue.

No action.

At this time, Wu Xiangdong narrowed his eyes slightly, holding the endotracheal tube in his right hand, and stared at the pregnant woman's vagina without blinking.

The frequency is so fast that you can even see the afterimage left by the shaking of the vocal cords.

"Doctor Wu!" The nurse on the side almost burst into tears and was even a little discouraged. Could it be that her first assisted tracheal intubation would end in failure?

But at this moment Wu Xiangdong moved. He held the tube tightly in his right hand, and with lightning speed, he quickly passed through the pregnant woman's glottis and inserted it into her trachea.

Wu Xiangdong's movements are very fast and his techniques are quite skillful. This smooth operation is not only breathtaking, but his flawless operation leaves no room for flaws!

Huhuhu...

As a strong stream of air surged out of the tube, Wu Xiangdong knew that this tracheal intubation was very successful, even more successful than when he was a doctoral supervisor in his previous life, explaining and demonstrating to a group of doctors under him.

As the pregnant woman successfully established the artificial airway, Wu Xiangdong picked up the suction tube on the side and inserted it into the newly inserted endotracheal tube. As the suction tube continued to deepen, the excess lung water in the pregnant woman's body was directly led out of the body through the suction device.

.

The pregnant woman who was originally short of breath and gasping for breath gradually calmed down. Seeing this, Wu Xiangdong immediately put the oxygen tube on the side of the endotracheal tube. He saw that the pregnant woman's bruised skin was getting better little by little, while the blood pressure on the monitor dropped to a low point.

The oxygen saturation level also gradually increased.

"Succeeded? Really succeeded?!"

At this time, the nurse, who was clasping her hands and praying non-stop, looked shocked as she watched the patient's oxygenation improve little by little.

We must know that the pregnant woman was on the verge of life and death a second ago, and now she was really rescued by Wu Xiangdong. The sense of accomplishment brought by this kind of life-saving and healing made the nurse shed tears.

"Thank you, thank you, you are the savior of our whole family!"

The man who was still kneeling on the ground at this time had already shed tears. He kept kneeling and thanked Wu Xiangdong in front of him. You must know that just when his wife was rescued, he was already so frightened that his face was ashen and he was even speechless for a time.

.

If Wu Xiangdong had not taken the risk to keep them, it is estimated that his daughter-in-law would have fallen ill on the way to another hospital. Since the transportation was extremely inconvenient at that time, and the city did not establish a 120 emergency command center, the outcome faced by the pregnant woman would only be

It is a dead end, and the man will pay a heavy price for his arrogance.

When he thought of this, the man felt even more regretful. If Wu Xiangdong hadn't ignored his past grievances and worked hard to save her, his wife would have died long ago.

"Doctor Wu, I..." The man wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Wu Xiangdong.

"Although your wife's condition has been stabilized for the time being, she is still in a critical stage and needs to be hospitalized for observation. You first go to the inpatient department to get a hospitalization ticket. I will keep an eye on the patient number for you until the obstetrics and gynecology doctor orders it.

Please go to the station and ask her to tell you the relevant details of hospitalization."

Wu Xiangdong was still fixing the tracheal intubation at this time. After all, the tube that was finally inserted could not fall out casually. If so, it would be a big loss.

"Okay, Doctor Wu, I will listen to whatever you say." The man bowed his waist and nodded frequently. Although Wu Xiangdong did not look at him from beginning to end, the man still showed a respectful expression, and even Wu Xiangdong's every word was heard.

He treated it as an imperial edict.

The nurse couldn't help but smile when she saw such a harmonious scene. After all, this was a huge difference from before.

"Then I'll call the obstetrics and gynecology department soon and ask them to issue a hospitalization ticket first. After all, it's not a problem for patients to stay in the emergency room all the time." After the nurse said this, she was eager to call the obstetrics and gynecology department.

That posture seemed to be showing off.

Wu Xiangdong couldn't help but shook his head secretly when he saw this, but it was no wonder. After all, for today's emergency department, the implementation of the first tracheal intubation was indeed worth showing off.

Just when the man ran to the hospital to need a hospitalization ticket, a figure hurried over from outside.

“Which patient needs emergency intubation?”

I saw a middle-aged man wearing dark green surgical clothes burst into the consulting room out of breath. He was holding a stethoscope in one hand and a black suitcase in the other hand. Judging from his appearance, he was obviously an anesthesiologist in the operating room.

.

After he took two deep breaths, he saw Wu Xiangdong, who was preparing to fix the tracheal intubation for the pregnant woman, and was immediately startled.

"Stop it, why did you make the decision to intubate the patient without waiting for me?!" The anesthesiologist frowned and looked at Wu Xiangdong, very angry at his decision.

The anesthesiologist's questioning tone made Wu Xiangdong very uncomfortable, so he replied angrily: "What, do I still need your consent to complete a tracheal intubation?"

As soon as these words came out, the anesthesiologist's face changed, and he was obviously very dissatisfied with Wu Xiangdong's attitude: "Didn't you come to ask me for intubation? I ran away at the risk even before the patients on my desk were fully awake.

Come here, do you need my consent for this tracheal intubation?"
