The reason is that this thing is so expensive that everything needs to be imported. National finance cannot support widespread deployment in public places.
Again, to be healthy, you first need to develop your economy and industry, and be able to build your own.
In such an environment, many people don't know what this thing is. It is normal for flight attendants to see it as if they saw a wolf coming and not know that it is a life-saving instrument. They were able to bring it on the plane only because they were medical personnel, otherwise they wouldn't be able to bring it with them. However, it is absolutely impossible to turn it on and use it at this stage.
Thinking of this, Xie Wanying retracted her hand decisively and did not dare to turn on the phone.
Doctors must abide by the law, no matter what era they are in.
There is no way to use it to pull an electrocardiogram on a patient. Originally, she just wanted to get an electrocardiogram for the patient to confirm whether her brain's speculation was misjudgment, so that the patient's treatment plan could be more accurately guided. Now, in desperation, I bite the bullet and rely entirely on my own brain.
Pressing the patient's neck, he found that he had no right heart failure, no full heart failure, no jugular vein distension, and weak carotid artery pulse. The patient's skin was cold and clammy to the touch, with a large amount of cold sweat. The patient's consciousness disappears at any time. If you open the patient's eyelids, you may be able to see the panic signal from the patient's eyes with a sense of death. The entire human tissue is in a low perfusion state, indicating that it is on the verge of cardiogenic shock.
Lu Xin took the blood pressure monitor and measured the patient's blood pressure. The systolic blood pressure dropped to below 90, and the diastolic blood pressure reached 50, which was dangerous.
Another precordial hammering? impossible. The patient is now bradycardic, and heart failure caused by hypothyroidism is characterized by bradycardia.
For patients like this, it is not atrioventricular block that can be solved by a pacemaker, but a left ventricular assist device for heart failure. It is necessary to use aortic balloon counterpulsation in cardiovascular medicine interventional surgery, or even use surgery to install a left ventricular assist device (LVAD) on the patient.
I would like to ask, can local hospitals around the capital perform such operations? What can't be done cannot be done by small hospitals or large hospitals. These technologies are high-end specialist technologies and have not been fully promoted in China.
Such patients can only seek life-saving treatment from capital hospitals. So this is also the reason why she was considering whether the patient could be flown directly to the capital for treatment. Her brain had already estimated that such risks on flights would also occur when the plane landed temporarily at other airports. This patient has a high chance of experiencing emergencies anytime and anywhere. Just like her cousin, it would be too late for the ambulance to take the patient to a major hospital in the capital.
Xie Wanying raised her head.
The flight attendant caught her look and ran to inform the captain.
The captain and co-pilot received the reaction in the cabin and made an immediate decision. They must seize every possible opportunity to land the plane as soon as possible.
The medical staff here need to buy as much time as possible for the patient.
"Change the breathing bag." Xie Wanying gave the next instruction.
Lu Xin took out the breathing bag from the first aid kit she carried.
Breathing bag is the common name of simple respirator. You can think of it as a very simple ventilator. It can be said that its function is similar to that of a ventilator, which is to provide artificial ventilation for patients with respiratory failure. In addition to replacing ventilators, breathing airbags can replace mouth-to-mouth to mouth-to-nose breathing when medical staff perform CPR on patients. It is definitely much better to have tools to use than medical staff to use their own mouth to blow.
It is a device for artificial ventilation of patients. Its components include an air inlet valve and an air outlet valve, as well as a part that manually controls the rhythm of air in and out: a balloon that is pressed by human hands.
