Zheng Ren was also stunned.
He felt very relaxed in his heart, the previous tension and anxiety disappeared, and his rock-like body was actually a little tired.
"Director Cheng, please be polite. Just hope the patient is fine." Although the diagnosis was clear, Zheng Ren still said respectfully.
"After taking the medicine, there won't be any big problems." Director Cheng asked cautiously.
"Stay in the hospital, go to endocrinology, notify the hospital coordination. Also call the police and find the source of the food." Zheng Ren said.
"Uh..." Director Cheng didn't expect that Boss Zheng would call the police. What did this mean
"Let's finish the matter at hand first, and then I'll explain it to you." Zheng Ren smiled and said, "I think it's due to excessive intake of thyroxine from food sources."
As he spoke, he took out his cell phone.
"Director Lin, it's me."
"There was a mass poisoning incident in the emergency department..."
"It's okay. It's under control. There are 17 patients now. Several people left the hospital on their own. We are still searching for and rescuing them."
"Yes, I need to be hospitalized... No, it's not gastroenterology, it's endocrinology. Please help coordinate, I'm too busy here."
Director Cheng was a little confused. Why was Boss Zheng so familiar with the people in the medical office
The tone of his speech was very relaxed, not like talking to himself, and there was an air of strangeness and politeness inside and outside.
But this is a good thing to think about. He is very capable and helped me solve such a big matter this time. I am afraid that I will be a little inferior in front of Boss Zheng in the future.
Director Cheng felt ashamed when he thought about this.
The background image in his mind was still Boss Zheng bowing to him ninety degrees, pleading that the patient must not be allowed to leave the hospital at will.
Fortunately, I stayed a few more hours and didn't have to go far to see the patient, so there was almost no delay. If only a few more hours had passed, a group of patients would have suffered from thyroid storm attacks...
Thinking of this, Director Cheng's head was buzzing and hurting.
But who would have thought that the symptoms of a gastrointestinal cold would eventually turn into thyroid storm.
Boss Zheng does have something to say, and his original intention remains the same, and he has not become slippery just because he has been in society for a long time.
The more Director Cheng thought about it, the more ashamed he became. He really didn't want to think about it, so he quickly picked up his cell phone and called the police.
The mass poisoning incident is so big that no one dares to delay it.
Although Boss Zheng has not yet explained why it was mass poisoning, should he still hesitate at this time
After finishing these things, Director Cheng enthusiastically took Zheng Ren to sit in his office.
Su Yun watched from behind and found it funny. Director Cheng's attitude changed so much that it was outrageous.
The boss is also very powerful. If he hadn't insisted on this matter today, someone would definitely have died.
Looking back at the emergency room, I saw that the unconscious patient's vital signs had gradually stabilized.
As the free t3 and t4 elements in the body decrease, the patient will wake up quickly. As for subsequent treatment, if you go to the endocrinology department and be hospitalized, there is nothing to worry about.
We came to Director Cheng's office together. He coughed for a long time, and then he said sheepishly: "Boss Zheng, it's an old problem, don't take offense."
Zheng Ren knew and nodded.
"How do you diagnose food poisoning?" Director Cheng asked politely.
"I estimate, it's just an estimate." Zheng Ren said with a smile: "The patients are in a certain area. They should have bought meat and offal adulterated with animal thyroid glands to eat at home. For example, in pigs, thyroxine is completely inactivated. , requiring a high temperature of 600-700 degrees Celsius."
"You cannot inactivate the thyroid gland by cooking at home, so people who eat animal thyroid will suffer from this condition."
"Some people don't want to eat animal offal, especially thyroid. It looks weird. I don't know, but I guess when pigs are killed, the thyroid should be thrown away directly."
"This can also explain why when a family sits together to eat, some are poisoned and some are not. Because thyroxine is not a toxin or heavy metal after all. When cooked in a pot, other food will not be contaminated. Eating a small amount of thyroxine will also There won’t be much harm.”
"But if you eat all the thyroid glands, it will be terrible."
"The incubation period is 5-20 hours, and the peak period of the attack is 3-6 days. Today's attacks are all patients who eat a relatively large amount of food. The concentration of thyroxine in other people's bodies changes... It's okay. After taking the medicine orally, monitor the complete thyroid function , the endocrinology department will handle this matter very well."
Director Cheng had several doubts in his mind, but after Zheng Ren explained them, they all suddenly became clear.
"Boss Zheng, when pigs are slaughtered normally, the thyroid gland must be removed." Director Cheng said: "Sometimes cats and dogs in rural areas suddenly die because of eating this stuff."
These are common sense in life, Zheng Ren doesn't know.
"Sometimes if the cat at home is lethargic, refuses to bask in the sun, and is willing to lie down in the shade, it is probably for this reason. Rural people...actually I don't know, they say that cats are spiritual and know that they are going to die. The yin energy It’s getting heavier and heavier, so I won’t bask in the sun.”
Zheng Ren nodded frequently and glanced at Su Yun, "Don't give Heizi any messy food."
"How are you talking? We don't do thyroid anatomy. Animal livers can't be eaten? It sounds like you should eat less." Su Yun said with disdain.
"I'm just telling you in advance, why is it like stepping on someone's tail?" Zheng Ren said.
With that said, Lin Ge rushed in furiously.
Zheng Ren narrated the matter again, without saying what problem he had found, but only about the patient's current situation and his and Director Cheng's guesses.
Lin Gehan came down.
If there are more than ten patients with thyroid crisis in the front and rear legs, and seven or eight of them die, will the medical office be in trouble
Moreover, this is a major mass incident, which is really difficult to explain. Even Dean Yan would probably have to come from home to give on-site instructions.
Fortunately, Boss Zheng was there, so the situation disappeared without a trace.
As long as it can be solved, it's good if it can be solved. Lin Ge didn't talk too much. Once he got the situation, he went to communicate with the comrades in the branch.
We must not cause panic, but we must also try our best to "dig out" patients in the community who have not come to see a doctor.
This job is too much work, and Ringer will probably be busy for several days.
Zheng Ren chatted with Director Cheng for a few words, then turned to leave.
When passing by the emergency room, Zheng Ren saw that the comatose patient had regained consciousness and the values on the ECG monitor had returned to normal. It's just that the heart rate is occasionally uneven, and it will take some time for careful care to fully recover.
"Boss, your performance today was almost perfect." Su Yun praised without hesitation for the first time.
"I was also shocked. No matter how I checked, there was no problem." Zheng Ren recalled, still very scared.
This kind of problem is not even diagnosed by pig trotters. Once it is diagnosed, it will be a fatal thyroid crisis. It is best not to encounter it in the future.
