the little things in life

Lin Chuyuan rested at home for a few days, and soon recovered from his ankle injury.He took advantage of this break to finish reading the two books on hospice care and seriously preparing his next paper on a related topic.In this way, there will be less distracting thoughts in the mind, and time will pass faster.

Today is the first time to go to work after vacation. "It'll be fine so soon, don't rest for a few more days." Wei Ruolin was a little worried.Lin: "It's okay, a little injury."

Wei: "Then take your time and work today, and call me if you're too busy."

Lin: "Yeah"

"Da Linzi is going to receive a critically ill patient. She has just been transferred from the emergency department. A middle-aged woman arrived at the department 10 minutes after she lost consciousness." The head nurse Mo told him.

Da Linzi quickly prepared first aid items, endotracheal intubation box, ventilator, and skillfully prepared the medicines needed for rescue.The patient was sent to the ward on time.

"Three, two, one over the bed", the six people evenly moved the patient from the stretcher to the hospital bed skillfully and smoothly.Wei Ruolin connected ECG monitoring on the left side of the patient and accurately measured the patient's vital signs: "Body temperature 36.4, heart rate 63, blood pressure 82/44, blood oxygen saturation cannot be measured." Lin Chuyuan looked at the patient with a flashlight on the right side Pupil: "Pupil 3.0/3.0, light reflex disappears".Xu Xingzhi: "Give a simple respirator to assist breathing, prepare for endotracheal intubation, and give succinylated gelatin an intravenous infusion of liquid. Prepare a standard dose of norepinephrine." He picked up the laryngoscope that Lin Chuyuan handed over, and while preparing for intubation, While asking: "Special medical history?" Dr. Zhao from the emergency department: "Liu Yuxiu, a female patient, underwent surgery for acute necrotizing pancreatitis a month ago..."

Liu Yuxiu?Aunt Liu?Lin Chuyuan heard, "You and Dr. Xu are both good people, you should be good..."

"The patient became unconscious after waking up to go to the toilet this morning. His family members dialed 120 and sent him to the emergency department of our hospital." Dr. Zhao quickly reported the patient's medical history briefly.

"No. 8.0 endotracheal tube," Xu Xingzhi stretched out his hand, and Lin Chuyuan quickly handed over the tube,

Xu Xingzhi: "Pull out the guide wire and connect a simple respirator." Lin Chuyuan cooperated skillfully.Immediately afterwards, they handed over the stethoscope, and they cooperated very tacitly. Needless to say, Xu Xingzhi, in fact, as long as he stretched out his hand, Lin Chuyuan could hand over the things according to his wishes.Xu Xingzhi: "Blood oxygen saturation?" Wei Ruolin: "92%"

Xu Xingzhi finished his auscultation: "It's all right, connect the ventilator and clear the airway." The nervous rescue made the sweat on his forehead flow down his temples. He was wearing gloves and couldn't take care of himself.Lin Chuyuan took the gauze and dabbed it on his forehead, and then continued to quickly cooperate with the rescue.

"The electrocardiogram suggests ventricular fibrillation," Wei Ruolin reminded. Lin Chuyuan had quickly prepared the defibrillator.

"For the first time 210J, everyone leaves the bedside." Lin Chuyuan reminded everyone, and then performed defibrillation.

"Defibrillation is invalid. CPR." Wei Ruolin immediately knelt down on the hospital bed and began to perform bedside chest compressions.

"A shot of epinephrine, intravenous injection"...

The rescue was carried out in an orderly and intense manner.Time passed by every minute and every second, and Aunt Liu's hope of giving birth became more and more slim.

"Time telling." Xu Xingzhi said.

"It's been 30 minutes." Lin Chuyuan checked the rescue time.

"Mydriasis was dilated, and the electrocardiogram showed a straight line. The rescue was ineffective, and clinical death was declared."

Lin Chuyuan's heart ached so badly, he held Aunt Liu's cold hand, and her old voice kept ringing in his ears, "Da Linzi, the buns I made are the best, I'll make them for you when I'm done." come over."

"Da Linzi, thank you for taking care of me."

"Da Linzi, you and Dr. Xu are both good people, you should be good..."

This is not the first time he has experienced the death of a patient since his work.He patted Aunt Liu's son on the shoulder lightly, comforting him silently.Listening to his sobbing confession: "Why... so, so suddenly, I was fine last night, this morning..." Da Linzi tightly pursed his lips, enduring the pain these words brought to his heart. shock.

No matter how high or low, death is a problem that everyone faces.When the deceased is gone, how can the loved ones let go and return to life with peace of mind?

After get off work, Lin Chuyuan sat in the tea break, closed his eyes, and leaned on the chair.

"Are you okay!" Xu Xingzhi handed over a cup of hot water and sat on the chair next to him.

"It's okay, I'm just a little tired, thank you!" He put on his glasses, took the water glass, and took a sip of water.

Xu Xingzhi didn't speak, and silently lit a cigarette.He seemed to be waiting for Lin Chuyuan to say something to him.

"It's not the first time I've experienced it. It's okay, I'm leaving." Lin Chuyuan got up and left.

Xu Xingzhi felt that he was deliberately keeping a distance from himself.

Xu Xingzhi drove away, and when passing by the hospital garden, he saw that familiar figure sitting alone on a bench.He pulled over to the side of the car and lowered the window. Even though there was a shade of trees, he still couldn't recognize the back view.He didn't even get out of the car, just stared at that figure like this, as if just like this, he could pass on some of the sadness.The cold and bright moonlight in late autumn shone on the silent two people.He wanted to be close to him, he wanted to warm him, but there was an invisible gap between the two that no one could cross.

The author has something to say: Pay tribute to the medical staff in the ICU, there are many such rescues, and it is really not that easy to face death all the time.
