Chapter 150: The Emergency Room Is Too Difficult
Seeing that they still looked surprised, Wu Xiangdong looked at the patient. After ensuring his life safety, he pointed to the bed unit where the patient had just been lying and said, "Didn't you smell it on the sheets where he lay?
Does it smell like penicillin?"
"Ah?" Following Wu Xiangdong's question, everyone was a little confused.
After all, there was an emergency just now, and they had been rescuing patients, without paying attention to the problems surrounding the patients.
At this time, Zheng Hong followed Wu Xiangdong's guidance with doubts and came to the patient's bedside. As soon as she bent down, she smelled a strong smell of penicillin.
"Someone accidentally spilled the infusion on the bedsheets during the infusion." Zheng Hong was experienced and found the key to the problem sharply.
At this time, the nurse on the side also suddenly remembered something and said quickly: "I remember it was a previous patient. He seemed to have something to do and took out the needle privately before the liquid was finished. The last bottle of liquid he injected was
penicillin."
The nurse said emphatically, because this incident was something she rarely encountered, so she had such a deep impression.
But at this time, the female doctor couldn't sit still, and she still asked with a puzzled face: "Even if the problem of penicillin is found, it has nothing to do with the patient at hand."
"He did neither a skin test nor an injection. The penicillin solution left on the sheets alone could cause him to go into anaphylactic shock. This diagnosis is too far-fetched."
It was not difficult for the female doctor to understand anaphylactic shock caused by penicillin, but the matter at hand was beyond her understanding. After all, she had never seen a person's allergic reaction reach such a serious level.
"Just because you haven't seen it doesn't mean it won't happen."
Wu Xiangdong shook his head helplessly. You must know that for people with allergic reactions, breathing in cold air, drinking water, or basking in the sun can induce allergic reactions.
Allergies are actually an overreaction of our own immune system to foreign substances, and this overreaction causes inflammatory diseases in the body.
Allergic rhinitis and bronchial asthma are examples of these, but they generally do not cause severe reactions. Unless the allergen binds to specific B cells and activates the immune system, it will induce a systemic allergic reaction.
"So, this patient simply came into contact with the residual liquid of penicillin, which caused such a severe anaphylactic shock."
Zheng Hong has been working for so long, and this is the first time she has encountered such a situation. She is still frightened when she thinks of the scene just now.
"It's so difficult to work in the emergency room. A little carelessness can cost a person's life. Who would have thought that penicillin on the mattress can also cause people to go into shock? No, I can't do this job directly."
Even when the female doctor figured out the cause and effect, she was extremely flustered. It was as if someone was sitting in the room and trouble came from the sky.
At this time, she saw that the patient was out of danger, and immediately said to Zheng Hong: "Head nurse, you have also seen the situation. This is not caused by me at all."
"I know." Zheng Hong saw the expression on her face and already knew what she was going to do.
Sure enough, as soon as the female doctor finished speaking, she took off her white coat on the spot.
As she took off her clothes, she said, "I'm sorry, I really can't do emergency medicine. I'll go to the medical department to explain the situation and let someone else do it for me."
As soon as these words came out, Zheng Hong said anxiously: "You can't do this. You know that our emergency department position is a carrot and a pit. You can quit working, but what should we do?"
"Then I can't control it. I was here to help. Now that I'm in this situation, I have to make plans for my future. It's okay today. If I'm unlucky one day and things like this happen again,
My medical license should be revoked."
Facing Zheng Hong's persuasion, the female doctor seemed to have made up her mind that she would not work in the emergency room no matter what others said.
"this……"
Zheng Hong watched the female doctor leave. She felt her head was buzzing and her temples were beating.
"Head nurse, how about I go to work directly today?"
Just when Zheng Hong was having a headache over this matter, Wu Xiangdong's calm voice rang in her ears.
"But you haven't rested for a long time." Zheng Hong really didn't want to trouble Wu Xiangdong. After all, he had been working for several days in a row, and even an iron man couldn't use it like this.
However, Wu Xiangdong looked at the patient number in front of him and said: "The emergency department cannot do without a doctor on duty. This is related to the patient's life safety. I will wait here until the medical department solves the problem before I leave."
"That's all we can do. It's just too hard on you." Zheng Hong said heartily.
"It's just a few more hours of day shift, it's nothing." Wu Xiangdong said with a smile: "If you really want to talk about hard work, it's you, Nurse Zheng, who have the hardest time."
"If you hadn't worried about the management of the emergency department in the past few months, I guess it would have been a mess."
What Wu Xiangdong said was not a compliment to Zheng Hong, but came from the bottom of his heart. After all, Zheng Hong's ears would probably be full of complaints from the female doctor just now after hearing them in the past few months.
"Hey, there is nothing we can do about this. After all, the emergency department has just started, and everything needs to be adjusted."
Zheng Hong smiled bitterly after hearing this. Although she had been mentally prepared when she took up the post of head nurse in the emergency department, the difficulties here were beyond her imagination after she actually arrived.
Whether it is the scheduling of personnel or emergency patients, everything is full of unpredictability, which sometimes makes it really difficult for Zheng Hong.
"Thanks to you being here this time, otherwise I really don't know how to deal with it." Zheng Hong said truthfully.
Wu Xiangdong smiled and said: "You're welcome, I am also an emergency patient now. If you have any problems that need to be solved, you can tell me."
"Doctor Wu, if you say that, I won't be polite." Zheng Hong was inexplicably moved. Even though Wu Xiangdong was young, his words were sonorous and powerful, giving people a very down-to-earth feeling.
You know, what happened in the emergency department these days has already made her very anxious. At this time, Chief Luo arranged for Wu Xiangdong to come over to provide support, which relieved Zheng Hong's urgent need.
"Luo Yong has a really good eye for people. With Wu Xiangdong in charge of the emergency room in the future, there will definitely be no problems."
Although she had only been in contact with Wu Xiangdong for less than a few hours, after this incident, Zheng Hong had begun to instinctively choose to trust Wu Xiangdong.
