Chapter 247: Valsava Action

"You don't feel uncomfortable at all?"

After hearing what the old lady said, the uncle no longer paid attention to Wu Xiangdong, turned around and came to the bedside.

The old lady lying on the hospital bed still looked uncomfortable.

Her face was rosy, her eyes were lively, and she looked very good. This was completely different from her sickly state just now.

"This..." The uncle was shocked.

what happened?

After repeatedly confirming the old lady's condition, the uncle was completely confused.

At the same time, a million question marks arose in my mind.

The old lady looked extremely ill just now, but in the blink of an eye, she looked like a completely different person.

Not only is my heart no longer panicked, but my whole body is no longer uncomfortable, and I even have a vague appearance of radiance.

Is it possible that all this is related to that voice just now?

The uncle, who was completely puzzled, could only associate all these changes with Wu Xiangdong's sudden shouting.

But as soon as the idea came up, he rejected it directly.

"How is this possible? If you can cure diseases by shouting, then everyone can become a doctor."

The uncle shook his head as he was thinking to himself, but when Wu Xiangdong saw this scene, he couldn't help but shake his head.

He walked up to the old lady and put his finger on her pulse.

This scene was also seen by the uncle on the side, but he did not say anything to stop Wu Xiangdong at this time. Instead, there was a look of expectation in his eyes.

Sure enough, after a brief pulse feeling, Wu Xiangdong said: "Okay, your illness has been cured and you can go home directly."

As soon as these words came out, not only the old lady was shocked, but also the uncle and Li Yanan who were watching from the side were shocked.

"Is this good?"

"No way, I was so uncomfortable just now that I couldn't speak, but it only took a few minutes for me to recover?"

Seeing their incredulous expressions, Wu Xiangdong nodded and affirmed: "Yes, that's right, her illness has been cured."

Faced with such an affirmative answer, the uncle was silent. At this moment, Li Yanan seemed to have thought of something and asked in surprise: "Doctor Wu, is it possible that her recovery really has something to do with your voice?"

Although Li Yanan didn't understand why Wu Xiangdong suddenly made such an unreasonable move just now, she trusted Wu Xiangdong very much and was willing to attribute all of this to Wu Xiangdong's treatment.

Because she knew that Wu Xiangdong would never do anything to harm the patient.

As Li Yanan asked, even the old lady and uncle on the side also turned their attention to Wu Xiangdong.

Facing their curious eyes, Wu Xiangdong smiled: "Do you know the valsava action?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone present was stunned. Looking at their confused faces, Wu Xiangdong smiled and said: "Valsava is also called the Valsalva maneuver. It is a drug-reduced treatment for paroxysmal ventricular sexual intercourse."

An action often taken before tachycardia."

"The Valsalva maneuver is actually very simple. The most common one is to hold your breath and push hard at the same time, just like pushing to defecate when the stool is dry."

"This action can excite the vagus nerve, reduce the sympathetic nerve, slow down the heart rate, and effectively terminate the episode of supraventricular tachycardia."

Wu Xiangdong said this and looked at the old lady on the hospital bed, "Do you know why I suddenly scared you just now?"

"It's because this approach can also stimulate your vagus nerve to achieve therapeutic effects."

As soon as these words came out, everyone realized that Wu Xiangdong's sudden voice was really to cure his illness.

"Let me just say, Doctor Wu must have his own reasons for what he did just now." Li Yanan was extremely happy at this time, as if she had cured the disease.

When the old man heard this, he didn't know what to say. He stood there at a loss and looked extremely embarrassed.

After all, he misunderstood Wu Xiangdong's good intentions and scolded him for his lack of medical ethics. As a result, Wu Xiangdong cured his wife's disease in the blink of an eye, which really surprised the uncle.

"Doctor, thank you. My old man has a rather impatient personality sometimes. He just bumped into you without asking any questions. It is indeed his fault. I would like to apologize to you in advance on his behalf."

However, the old lady who recovered seemed to be more rational than the uncle. After figuring out the whole story, she quickly expressed her gratitude to Wu Xiangdong and apologized for the conflict just now.

"That's okay." Wu Xiangdong waved his hand, indicating that he didn't care.

However, regarding the old lady's sudden supraventricular speed, Wu Xiangdong still said that if she is likely to do it again in the future, she needs to undergo further examination.

"Is it so serious?" When the old lady heard Wu Xiangdong's warning, she didn't think it was normal.

After all, a disease that can be cured by just speaking of your voice wouldn't be too scary, right?

When Wu Xiangdong saw this, he shook his head helplessly. Don't think that his technique looked simple, but it was actually an improved version of the valsava maneuver based on an article published in the top medical journal "The Lancet" in 2015.

If the treatment measures of this era were followed, the probability of success would be about 17%.

As Wu Xiangdong explained, the old lady also realized the seriousness of the problem. It turned out that it was not that her illness was too mild, but that Wu Xiangdong's treatment was too superb.

"Doctor, what should I do if I do it again?" the old lady said worriedly.

"We'll see what happens at that time. If it's really serious, we can do radiofrequency ablation surgery for treatment."

"Radiofrequency ablation?"

Everyone was startled when they heard this term, as if they had never heard of it before, but as soon as the word came out of Wu Xiangdong's mouth, it had a high-end flavor.

At this time, Wu Xiangdong also realized that radiofrequency ablation of the heart had just started in the world in 1999, so it was normal that they had not heard of it.

You should know that supraventricular tachycardia is a relatively common clinical arrhythmia, and it is easy to diagnose. It can be confirmed by going to the hospital for an electrocardiogram during the onset of the disease.

But in terms of treatment, radiofrequency ablation is the only way to cure it, and other methods can only temporarily terminate the attack.

So Wu Xiangdong patiently explained to them some relevant precautions.

For example, if supraventricular tachycardia only occurs occasionally, and the disease does not affect the quality of life, then you can not perform surgical treatment first, but try to use vagus nerve stimulation every time an attack occurs.

Such as massaging the carotid sinus, washing the face with cold water, pressing the eyeballs, stimulating the pharynx and inducing nausea, etc.

After all, smoking, drinking, or even drinking coffee may cause a tachycardia, leading to supraventricular tachycardia, which is a physiological manifestation.

However, if pathological conditions occur, such as myocardial infarction or supraventricular tachycardia caused by heart failure, further examination and treatment are necessary. Only by eliminating the root cause can recovery be achieved.

"Thank you, thank you doctor, I feel more relieved after hearing your explanation."

The old lady excitedly held Wu Xiangdong's hand and kept thanking him.

The uncle beside her was already ashamed at this moment. After all, Dr. Wu not only cured his wife's disease, but also ignored their past grievances and answered their questions very patiently. Such a kind and virtuous doctor is really rare.

Unable to ask for.

"Doctor Wu, I..." When the uncle thought about his impulsive behavior just now, his face suddenly turned red. But just when he mustered up the courage to apologize to Wu Xiangdong, the latter suddenly said with a smile: "Okay, I don't know.

Weird, besides, you are also very concerned, so I understand."

As soon as these words came out, the uncle trembled all over and his eyes immediately turned red.
