This is on the plane, not flat ground, so you can't find other doctors or take a taxi to the hospital at any time.
"Sister, go." Lei Lei grabbed her mother's hand and refused to let her mother grab her sister's clothes. Sister Gang's words made her stronger.
Leilei's mother was so angry that she could only sit back on the chair first. After a while, she looked around as curiously as other passengers on the plane. What kind of patient would she be this time?
When her daughter was sick just now, no one said she was sick.
Adults are more tolerant of illness than children. Especially some hard-working elderly people often endure minor illnesses and become serious illnesses just to avoid worrying their families. This old lady is so enduring that she is almost unable to do so, so she is by her side.
The daughter found out.
Walking quickly to the elderly patient, Xie Wanying glanced at the patient, and the alarm bell made, feeling as bad as the nurse.
"Do you let her lie down?" The flight attendant once again made the same suggestion as before, thinking that this time the patient was in a serious condition that was visible to the naked eye and should have to lie down.
"No, she can't lie down." Xie Wanying and the nurse said in unison.
Patients with heart failure cannot lie flat, and there is a medical term to describe this special manifestation called sitting upright breathing.
To explain this phenomenon, you need to first understand what heart failure is. Heart failure is not an independent disease, but a group of clinical manifestations. Many typical symptoms will appear when a cardiovascular disease develops to a certain extent. The causes of these symptoms
Through the study of the physiological structure and functions of the human body, medical scientists found that the contraction and diastolic function of the heart of this type of patients have disorders compared to normal people. Some are both, and one of them is one of them, causing venous blood to return to the heart.
Reduction, the professional term is called reduced blood volume in the back of the heart. The decrease in the back of the back of the heart results in stagnation in the human venous system. The blood pumped by the heart to the human artery system decreases, indicating insufficient arterial perfusion.
.
According to the principle mentioned above, patients with heart failure have no heart function. If they lie flat, normal venous blood reflux will increase the burden on the heart. The patient cannot accept it, so the patient will behave as if he wants to sit up and let the reflux blood volume be stored in the lower limbs.
, make your heart more comfortable. This is the source of your breathing when sitting upright.
It can be seen that edema of both lower limbs is also one of the common symptoms of heart failure patients.
The old lady waved her hand and said she didn't need to lie down. It was obvious that she had difficulty breathing and could not lie down. It was a sign of acute heart failure sitting upright and breathing.
The nurse rolled up the patient's trouser legs and exposed the patient's ankle.
If there is edema, the skin around the ankle is weak and you can see, touch and press it. Medical staff can know about it.
The old lady was strangely fat, but the medical staff's fingers pressed on her skin, and there were no indentations that could be seen with edema.
Lu Xin felt like she was going to scratch her head.
Xie Wanying was a little sensible about the patient's situation, and only listening to the elderly daughter's accent can confirm certain things.
A domestic province is not small in size, but it can be equivalent to a small country in the international field. There are differences in the province, each with its own local accent and customs. For doctors, distinguishing the specific place the patient comes from is not to say that it is different.
Treating patients is beneficial to doctors to identify whether it is a local epidemic.
