I can see the status bar

Chapter 997 D-day (8)
Fortunately, Uncle Peng is still saving face.After Nurse Zhong completed the dialysis catheter and turned on the dialysis machine, the uncle's heart rate began to drop slowly, and then gradually returned to a fairly acceptable position-115 beats per minute.

This heart rate is certainly too fast for a 66-year-old middle-aged and elderly person, but in this state, at least a heart rate of 115 does not seem so dangerous.Sun Lien communicated with Nurse Zhong at the side, and then discussed with Dr. Ma Yongfang for a while and decided to change the treatment plan for Uncle Peng.On the one hand, dialysis is carried out, and on the other hand, the amount of intake is mainly controlled.Withhold intravenous methylprednisolone and switch to an intramuscular regimen.

Different patients have different states, and they are affected differently by the new coronavirus.Patients at different stages of the disease course and showing different symptoms cannot fully apply the existing treatment plans and experience.The previous experience in treating patients infected with the new coronavirus in Ningyuan, and even earlier in treating patients with various rare diseases, provided Sun Lien with a valuable experience—don’t be superstitious about experience.

Thousands of people, thousands of strategies, precise rescue.This is the fundamental guiding ideology of Sun Lien's current treatment of patients.But he is very clear that this kind of plan is unlikely to be implemented in Yunhe.The treatment model with thousands of people and thousands of strategies is of course ideal, but it needs to be backed by a large amount of medical resources to be possible to implement.

Yunhe lacks nothing now, except medical resources.

After tossing around [-]:[-], the medical team led by Sun Lien completed the case labeling and explanation for each patient handover.At this time, critically ill patients are easier to deal with—their problems are not serious, as long as they clearly write down the treatment given to patients today.Then, based on the previous work of the doctors, it is enough to mark the changes in the vital signs of the patient today.What worries the shifting medical staff most is actually those critically ill patients who are conscious.

Up to now, Yunhe has experienced serious human-to-human transmission.And this new type of coronavirus is highly contagious, and it often happens that all family members living together are infected.

For these critically ill patients who are being treated, their own life and death are no longer their top priority.Lying in a hospital bed, their biggest concern is their family members who are not by their side.

Not only are they worried, but they often feel guilty.In the eyes of these severely infected patients, they are the culprit who caused the whole family to face the risk of death.Relatives who have been hospitalized or even passed away due to infection, family members who have symptoms but have not been diagnosed and cannot receive treatment, other relatives and friends who are overwhelmed by infection... The reason why these people suffer such hardships is the root cause of everything , are themselves.

Such pain and guilt can make them extremely resistant to treatment measures.This is a kind of "survivor's guilt", and they wish that they were the ones who died.

The nurses of the Fourth Hospital do not often encounter such patients, especially the nurses of the Comprehensive Diagnostic Center.For such a patient who did not cooperate with the treatment, and even hoped to die, the nurses were angry at first, and then... sympathized.

There are two main types of patients who are unwilling to receive treatment, one is worrying about the cost of treatment.This is relatively easy to solve - the government has announced a policy of comprehensive financial payment, just take out relevant news and publicize it to patients.But for patients caught up in survivor's guilt, nurses don't have many good options at their disposal.

"Let's do this." After leaving the red zone and entering the green zone, Sun Lien summoned the exhausted medical staff. "Nursing the psychological condition of patients is also an important part of clinical treatment - we can't just rely on nurses, they are already busy enough. Psychological intervention for such patients... do you have any ideas?"

"I think... you can consider contacting their family members?" Xu Yourong said after thinking for a while, "The hospital should have the contact information of the patient's family members. Let's find a few mobile phones and put them in the red zone so that the patients and their family members can communicate." Call? Their current psychological burden is too heavy, maybe it would be better for them to contact their families."

"That's a good idea." Zhou Ce came up with a suggestion immediately, "Since we want to let them contact, why not try video calling? Anyway, mobile phones and tablets now have this function. Being able to see family members on the phone will definitely have an effect. It’s better than simply calling—many seriously ill and even critically ill patients can’t speak clearly. It’s better to let them watch directly.”

This proposal immediately gave everyone some energy, and all kinds of ideas emerged one after another.And these seemingly unreliable ideas have revived almost all medical staff.

To make patients feel more comfortable is the mission and minimum goal pursuit of every medical staff.As long as it makes them feel a little better, the current four groups of doctors can basically do anything - a day job, which makes many of them feel a sense of powerlessness.Various treatment options and many drugs have been used, but the patient's condition can hardly be called "improved".Steroids were used, dialysis was used, and tracheotomy and mechanical ventilation were also used.But... At present, it seems that if the patients' condition does not deteriorate further, it is already the best result they can achieve.

Now Xu Yourong and Zhou Ce suddenly came up with a method to make the patient a little more comfortable, which naturally aroused everyone's interest.

"However, the equipment brought in will definitely not be taken out later." After an active discussion for a while, Yuan Ping'an suddenly thought of a key point, "We have to spray chlorine-containing disinfectant when we go out now, how to disinfect mobile phones and tablets and the like ? No matter how powerful a waterproof phone is soaked in disinfectant, it will break, right?"

"Then put it in and don't take it out." Sun Lien made a decision immediately, "I'll find a way to see if I can buy a new tablet when I go back today."

Facts have proved that buying an electronic product in the current Yunhe is tantamount to nonsense.

All commercial activities are suspended, and delivery services for shopping on the Internet are also terminated.The limited distribution capacity and material reserve resources must be tilted towards the medical supplies flocking to Yunhe from all over the country.Ventilators, monitors, masks, gloves and protective clothing are more important than a tablet computer.

After calling several times in a row and still getting nothing, Sun Lien really had no choice.In desperation, he registered a Weibo account on his mobile phone, and then tried to send such a message for help.

"I am a member of the National Aid Medical Team in Song An Province. We want patients to have a video call with their families, but there are really no tablets around the hospital—the tablets we buy have to be kept in the isolation area and cannot be taken out. After editing the content, Sun Lien thought for a while and added, "The price is not a problem, I can post more. But it needs to be done as soon as possible - we just finished the day shift today, and we will resume the night shift at eleven o'clock tomorrow night. "

After posting on Weibo, Sun Lien threw away his phone, then leaned on the sofa in the hotel, watching TV programs in a daze.

In order to prevent the possible spread of the virus, the staff of the medical team must eat alone.Masks must be worn whenever two people come into contact—even on New Year’s Eve.

In another hour, comrades from Yunhe City and Xiangbei Provincial Health Committee will start an emergency meeting with the various medical teams that have already arrived in Yunhe. The place is on the fourth floor of the hotel where Sun Lien lives.

In front of Sun Lien was a lunch box, which contained two simple vegetables and rice.Today is New Year's Eve. Although there are some difficulties in supplying supplies, the hotel staff still tried their best to prepare a main course that is quite Chinese New Year.

In every doctor's dinner, there is a braised fish.

While eating braised fish, Sun Lien glanced at the TV from time to time. Although he didn't like to watch the Spring Festival Gala very much, this year he watched the Spring Festival Gala alone in the hotel with a boxed lunch... This feeling is quite unique.
