Chapter 215: The car is full of patients
"Doctor Wu, come and take a look, someone is driving a big truck towards our emergency department!" Zheng Hong's slightly frightened voice made Wu Xiangdong frown.
After the big incident in the emergency room last night, Wu Xiangdong had been on high alert. Seeing that even Zheng Hong was a little panicked, he immediately said: "Head nurse, stay here first, and notify me in time if anything happens to the patient."
, I will go outside to check the situation now."
"Okay." Zheng Hong nodded, and then the two exchanged positions, and Wu Xiangdong walked out of the rescue room.
He quickly came to the emergency door. At this time, a large green truck was running at a high speed on the road. The wheels of the truck, which was half a man tall, were turning wildly, bringing up a cloud of dust around him.
With the rumbling sound of the engine and the deafening whistle, it looked like an ancient mammoth beast, its huge body shaking the ground slightly.
At this time, the driver sitting in the cab looked anxious, his eyes were red, he was in fifth gear, pressed the accelerator hard, and kept shouting: "Hurry up, faster!
"
Soon, under the control of the driver, the large truck drove from far to near and arrived at the emergency door.
As he applied the brakes, the emergency braking caused the behemoth to slide in an arc on the ground. The violent friction caused by the collision of the brake pads and the wheel hub was sharp and harsh.
Even Wu Xiangdong could see the scattered sparks from the red brake pads and the faint smell of burning in the air.
"Doctor! Come on, doctor!" The driver pushed open the door and jumped out of the cab, which was nearly one meter high.
At the same time, someone on the trailer stretched out half of his body and shouted to the driver who got off: "Lao Liu, I'm guarding them in the car. You go to the emergency room and call someone to help."
The anxious and hoarse cry for help had a familiar feeling to it, which made Wu Xiangdong in front of the door slightly startled. He followed the voice and looked towards the trailer, and was suddenly startled.
"High strength?!"
The person standing on the trailer was the work team who came to the emergency room to help them last night.
At this time, Gao Qiang's eyes were red and bloodshot, as if he hadn't slept all night. When he heard someone calling his name, he immediately saw Wu Xiangdong in front of the emergency door.
As if grasping a life-saving straw, Gao Qiang quickly asked Wu Xiangdong for help: "Doctor Wu, seven or eight people here have suffered from heat stroke. Their whole bodies are burning hot. I have used all the available cooling methods, but their body temperatures have not been reduced.
When it comes down, it gets higher and higher."
"They were all responsive when we came here just now, but when we got to the road, they all fell asleep and couldn't be woken up no matter how hard they screamed."
Gao Qiang was so anxious that his whole body was trembling. After all, no one could accept the sudden situation encountered by colleagues who worked with him day and night.
Upon seeing this, Wu Xiangdong immediately said: "Don't worry, I will call someone over immediately and transport them safely from the car to the emergency room."
"Observe their condition first. If they have convulsions or vomiting, remember to turn their head to one side to open the airway and prevent the patient from aspiration."
Facing the instructions, Gao Qiang calmed down and nodded repeatedly: "Okay, I understand."
Later, Wu Xiangdong called the security guard who was patrolling, and found a movable flat car from the outpatient department. Several people pushed the car together and rushed to the emergency door.
"You guys wait for me, I'll get in the car to check on the patient's condition."
After Wu Xiangdong said that, he came to the rear of the trailer. As he raised his legs and stepped on the pedal, Gao Qiang, who had been waiting for a long time, quickly reached out his hand to help Wu Xiangdong get on the trailer.
Wu Xiangdong, who had just come up, saw a group of people lying around in the car at a glance.
The oldest of them are forty or fifty years old, and the youngest are only in their twenties. Although the age span is very large, they all have the same symptoms at this time: their eyes are closed and they are unconscious.
"So serious?"
Although Wu Xiangdong was mentally prepared, when he saw a group of people fainted in a trailer, the visual impact still made him extremely shocked.
At this time, Gao Qiang, who was standing next to him, saw that Wu Xiangdong did not respond, and thought there was something wrong with his emergency measures, so he quickly said: "Doctor Wu, the project our operation team is responsible for this time is very urgent, so we have been working on it for the past two days.
Exploring in the wild.”
"But as the weather is getting hotter and hotter, everyone is obviously tired, so we originally planned to take a rest after finishing today's work."
"But just after noon, some of them began to have symptoms of dizziness and nausea. At that time, I suspected that they had heat stroke, so I immediately stopped work and provided them with corresponding cooling treatments, but problems still occurred."
Gao Qiang seemed to be very remorseful. If he had made a decision earlier, perhaps such a thing would not have happened.
"You did what you should do, don't feel guilty anymore. The top priority now is how to carry them to the emergency room for rescue." Wu Xiangdong looked at the patients who were being stripped of their coats in the car, knowing that this was done by a high-powered person.
After all, as a part-time hygienist in the team, he knows how to relieve the symptoms of his colleagues by taking off their clothes in an emergency, which is already very good.
At this time, Gao Qiang saw Wu Xiangdong preparing to transfer the patient, and immediately stepped forward to help. However, as soon as he took two steps, he felt dizzy, and his eyes went dark and he almost fell down.
Wu Xiangdong saw that he was sweating profusely and his lips were chapped. This was already a sign of severe dehydration, so he immediately said: "Don't move, let us handle the rest."
"How can that be done? I have to be responsible for them." Gao Qiang still wanted to insist, but suddenly a wave of nausea hit him, making him bend over and start retching non-stop.
"If you continue to persist in your current state, you will be like them in less than ten minutes." Wu Xiangdong's tone gradually became serious: "We don't have enough manpower to begin with, and I don't want to divert my energy to come and rescue you."
The unkind words did not sound harsh to Gao Qiang's ears. On the contrary, the concern revealed in Wu Xiangdong's words made Gao Qiang's eyes turn red all of a sudden.
"I..." Gao Qiang's eyes were red, and there was no more tears in his dry eyes. He twitched the corners of his mouth and begged Wu Xiangdong: "Doctor Wu, please cure them!"
"Don't worry, it's absolutely fine." Wu Xiangdong cast a firm look at him, and then began to direct everyone to transport the patient.
"Quickly, help me bring up the stretcher and give me a set of restraints, ready to transport the patient."
Soon, a canvas stretcher was handed over. Wu Xiangdong took the stretcher and placed it under the patient. Then he used restraint straps to wrap around the patient's chest, hips, thighs, and calves to fix it.
After doing all this, Wu Xiangdong once again confirmed that the straps were secure, then grabbed the stretcher with both hands and tried to lift it.
However, due to uneven stress, the long and narrow stretcher soon tilted to one side, causing the patient who had just been immobilized to almost turn over. This caused a cold sweat to break out on Wu Xiangdong's forehead.
"Sure enough, it's impossible to rely on one person's strength."
Wu Xiangdong frowned. Originally, he planned to fix it alone at the top while the rest of the people supported him from below, but this method didn't seem to work.
But Wu Xiangdong turned his head and looked at the frail Gao Qiang in the car and the group of security guards who were over fifty years old under the car. It was really a bit difficult.
But at this moment, a powerful voice suddenly came from the crowd below.
"Doctor Wu, I'll go up and help you!"
