Chapter 1443 [1443] No effect

The most fearful thing is that the foreign body that cannot be discharged is stuck to the airway wall.

Cao Yong's forehead was sweaty, and there was a sense of anxiety between his brows.

The time goes by every second. First aid is the most time-sensitive. Every first aid action is fighting against death.

Five abdominal thrusts have no effect.

"Senior brother, put it on the ground." Xie Wanying looked at this and suggested it.

Cao Yong nodded.

The two of them placed the child flat on the hard floor tiles in the hospital to test the child's breathing.

The airflow at the child's nose and mouth is very low. For fear that the child will suffocate immediately. Cao Yong put his fingers on the child's sternum to press, pushing the child's lungs, to see if it could play the role of an artificial cough. This is the chest impact method.

For patients with complete airway obstruction, thoracic impingement produces greater peak airway pressures than abdominal impingement. However, if the airway is completely obstructed, these methods are equivalent to hitting an egg against a stone, and the effect is almost zero.

The most important thing is to get the blockage out. The above methods are mainly for the first aider to help the child to use his own physical strength to expel foreign bodies.

It is necessary to observe where the foreign body is first, which requires more careful insight and consideration from the doctor and takes a long time. Therefore, in an emergency, the first choice is to help the patient to exclude foreign bodies by himself. It is best to discharge it by yourself. If the doctor takes it, there are also other risks and it is too late.

Now there is no other option. Xie Wanying could only open the child's small mouth as soon as possible while her brother continued to give first aid to the child, and tried her best to open her eyes to find a breakthrough in the child's mouth, and said to the nurse, "Come here for a bronchoscope."

"Bronchoscopic?" The nurse almost burst into laughter when she heard what she said, and said, "We're a stomatology department here."

Stomatology is not an ENT, not a respiratory department, so where do you get a bronchoscope? Once their dental specialist finds out that the patient has other specialist emergency diseases, which the non-stomatology department can handle, they will immediately call 120 for support. The patient can only be urgently sent to the general hospital of the tertiary hospital or other specialized hospital with the corresponding disease.

The nurse thought again, she was reminded by her words, and ran to the nurse station to call 120.

"Wait." Seeing someone running away, Xie Wanying yelled anxiously, "If you don't have a bronchoscope, bring a laryngoscope first."

"Do you need a laryngoscope?"

This voice is not the nurse's. Xie Wanying turned her head and saw the stomatology senior sister.

Lin Liqiong came out to find the nurse only to find out that an accident had happened, and hurriedly ran to them to ask about the situation.

"Yes, a laryngoscope is needed." Xie Wanying said with certainty. Although she can't remember anything happened between herself and this senior sister, she believes that as long as it is a doctor, she wants to save people.

"I'll look for it." Lin Liqiong couldn't think of anything else right now, so she ran away, going to the emergency room to find first aid items. If she couldn't find it, she could contact the anesthesiologist in the dental operating room here.

The nurse who finished the call heard them speak and came out and reported: "Call 120, and the patient will be sent to the emergency department of Guozhi. Guozhi is relatively close to us, about 20 minutes' drive. Her mother came back and told her mother about the situation."

Twenty minutes, too long. If the blockage completely blocks the airway, you can't wait a second. Once the child is deprived of oxygen, even if it is finally rescued after the event, it will become irreversible and permanent brain damage.
