In addition to the difficulty of inserting the tube, acute edema of the throat could also cause the inflammation to spread. It was the most common and fatal symptom in the emergency department.
"Time is of the essence. Let's give it a try first," Director Zeng said in a deep voice.”
In the face of patients infected with the new crowns, even if the doctors were wearing protective clothing, they could not be in contact with them for too long. The rescue had to be carried out in groups. If it was more than 10 minutes, they had to evacuate quickly and be replaced by the next group.
Unless they were like Yang Yu, who had taken the system's Type 1 anti-infective drug.
Ouyang Yulu listened to Department Director Zeng's suggestion and planned to try again to intubate the patient, but the patient suddenly trembled violently and looked in pain. It was obvious that the swelling of the throat had caused the upper respiratory tract obstruction.
Seeing this, Yang Yu had no choice but to say,"Ouyang, give up on the tube. If you force it, your throat will bleed."”
After another attempt without any progress, Ouyang Yulu said anxiously,"Chief physician, if you don't perform pneumectomy now, it'll be too late.”
The upper respiratory tract obstruction had already formed, and the patient could not breathe normally now. If there was any more delay, the patient might die from suffocation.
"Isn't it too rushed to cut it open now?”As Chief Physician Zeng spoke, he looked at Chief Physician Zhang. Chief Physician Zhang was only an associate chief physician, while Chief Physician Zhang was the administrative director of the Emergency Department.
This was a little troublesome. He had no choice but to cut it. If he did, there would not be enough time.
What should he do?
Could it be that he was going to let the patient die of respiratory obstruction?
"Let me try." Just as Director Zhang was about to speak, he heard a voice coming from behind him. Yang Yu, who had been standing at the back since he entered the EICU, walked up.
Yang Yu did not have a better treatment plan for the new coronavirus-infected, and he only knew some tests and emergency measures.
Therefore, from the moment he entered the EICU, he did not act rashly to avoid any mistakes.
Yang Yu would not be able to ascend to the heavens just because he had a system. He was not that arrogant.
Now that the patient had upper respiratory obstruction, he did have a way to deal with it. When he was at Yanjing International Hospital, he had done the same first aid to a little boy who had swallowed a hard candy.
"What are you going to do?" Director Zhang asked.”
"Cricothyroidal membrane puncture," replied Yang Yu.”
Zhang and Zeng looked at each other and nodded.""Let Doctor Yang do it."
Even though Yang Yu had the name of an intern on her chest, they did not dare to treat her as an intern. She had been here for two days, and the strength she displayed was enough for them to marvel over and over again.
From Yang Yu's calm and composed attitude, it could be seen that he was confident.
"Use the Emergency Skill Card on Shen Qingchuan!”
Ding! It was used successfully!
Congratulations, you have obtained the Emergency Cricothyroidal Membrane Puncturing Technique. The effective time is 120 seconds!
According to the skill time given by the system, it could be determined that the emergency treatment for Shen Qingchuan's respiratory tract puncture had to be completed within two minutes.
Fortunately, if he had chosen to use Qi Cut, he would have been too late.
"Needle!"
Yang Yu instructed as he walked to the top of the patient's head. Ouyang Yulu, Cheng Jun, and Wang Bo helped stabilize the patient and tilt his head back.
The cricothyroid membrane was located between the thyreoid and cricoid cartilages. It passed through the soft thyreoid first before passing through the ventilation tube. Because it was only a thin membrane, it was called the cricothyroid membrane.
Yang Yu's index finger moved down the patient's Adam's apple by two to three centimeters. She found a depression the size of a soybean and took the puncture needle from the head nurse.
The needle had to be inserted vertically. When it felt like it had missed and the resistance had disappeared, it could stop.
Following that, Yang Yu quickly pulled out the upper vent. When he heard the sound of air exhaling and flowing back above the needle hole, he knew that he had succeeded.
"It's connected." "There's hope," Director Zeng said excitedly.”
If the cricothyroidal membrane puncture was successful, it would buy enough time for the pneumectomy.
Director Zhang's brows also relaxed a lot. Although he did not say anything, the way he looked at Yang Yu became even more passionate.
How could Yanjing International take advantage of such a talent?
If Yan Jin International treats a genius as an intern, I, Xi Hua, can totally open the door and give him a promotion.
Yang Yu did not know what Director Zhang was thinking. After successfully performing the cricothyroidal membrane puncture last night, he retreated to the side and left the rest of the rescue work to others.
This was the same as performing a surgery. Everyone had their own duties.
Ouyang Yulu, Cheng Jun, and Wang Bo all gave Yang Yu a thumbs up. The admiration in their eyes was clear.
Department Director Zeng smiled and said to the head nurse,"Head Nurse Lin, hurry up and prepare the adrenaline and dex. Continue to vaporize the patient after gargling.”
Head Nurse Lin started to get busy. Director Zhang also said to Yang Yu and the others,"You three resident doctors and Doctor Yang, go out and rest.”
The few of them nodded. They knew that the rest of the treatment was mainly for the fog. It was useless for them to stay here. If they stayed here for too long, they would be easily infected. They walked out of the ward.
Seeing the two little girls leaning against the glass, Yang Yu couldn't help but say angrily,"What are you two doing here? Go to the laboratory and stare at the report.”
"Oh, oh oh!" The two of them nodded aggrievedly. They felt that Teacher Yang was suddenly fierce.
Ai Xiaotian asked Zou Yimeng worriedly as she ran,"Ms. Yang won't dislike us, right?"”
