Zheng Ren first told Wen Xiaonuan that the operation was successful, and then told the story of the operation. Looking at her slightly nervous expression, Zheng Ren also knew that mere words of comfort were powerless.
Wen Xiaonuan can rest assured only when the small stone is safely transferred out of the ICU.
There was a patient in the ward who was going to be operated on today. Zheng Ren didn't talk to her much and hurriedly went to the operation.
The next day, Zheng Ren just arrived at the hospital early in the morning and stood in front of the ICU bed. As soon as he saw the small stone, his cell phone rang.
"Director Luo, why did you come to see me so early?" Zheng Ren said with a smile.
Xiao Shitou has not yet been extubated, because he is undergoing neck surgery to prevent capillaries from rupturing and bleeding, causing local hematoma to compress the airway, and ultimately leading to death, so the ventilator must be kept for a period of time.
While answering Director Luo's call, Zheng Ren looked at Xiao Shitou's various monitoring values. Seeing that they were stable as usual, he felt slightly happy.
"Oh, okay, I'm seeing patients in the ICU. I'll be there in a minute. Please wait for me." Zheng Ren said quickly.
"What can happen to Director Luo so early?" Su Yun asked with a frown.
"A patient who ate fish bones... fish bones with fish bones." Zheng Ren said, "The fish bones are stuck upward and cannot be taken out."
"Can such a big piece be eaten?" Su Yun was not surprised. He couldn't see anything in the hospital. This was not a big deal at all.
Zheng Ren put his cell phone into the pocket of his white clothes and carefully looked at every value on the ventilator, monitor, and micropump.
Ruchai's little hand moved in front of his eyes, and Zheng Ren looked at the little stone.
Seeing him opening his eyes slightly, he clicked twice.
"Lie well, and you will be able to extubate and talk in 2-3 days." Zheng Ren said softly.
But Xiao Shitou shook his head slightly and clicked his eyes twice more.
Because there was a tube inserted in the airway, even if he tried to speak, he could only make meaningless sounds. Moreover, doing so will cause the airway resistance to increase, causing the ventilator to alarm, and medical staff must deal with it accordingly.
Zheng Ren was a little confused. He quickly recalled the various values. The small stone surgery was very successful. The 10% increase in the scholar's ability to complete the surgery played a crucial role.
He recovered faster than patients whose surgery was 100% complete!
Nothing can happen. What is Little Stone doing? It is said that most patients who have problems with ventilator-assisted breathing after surgery are caused by phlegm blocking the airway, causing difficulty in breathing.
I just took a look and found that the ventilator's values were very stable and normal. It didn't look like there was a lot of sputum in the airway.
But Zheng Ren still took out a ball pen from his pocket and shook it at the small stone.
Xiao Shitou tried his best to show a smile, indicating that this was what he meant. But there was a tube inserted in his mouth, and his expression was a little stiff.
After handing him the ball pen and taking a piece of A4 paper, Zheng Ren found something to put under it.
Holding a ball pen in his thin, dry hand, he began to write twisted and shapeless words on the A4 paper.
Due to post-operative weakness and uncomfortable posture, Zheng Ren has seen many people express their thoughts by writing after surgery, but only half of them can succeed. And most of this success still relies on guesswork.
The patient lying on the hospital bed is like a child learning to talk, as if his life is starting over.
don't calm down
Xiao Shitou wrote these four words on the A4 paper, and then put down the pen. Those four simple words had exhausted all his energy.
Zheng Ren was stunned for a moment. The surgery was well done. He looked calm? Or... No, is it a matter of not using sedatives
Pipe resistance is a big problem.
If there is a foreign body in the respiratory tract, the patient will naturally fall into a near-death state after waking up from general anesthesia. Of course, this near-death state is just imagined in the hazy state before the anesthetic drug is completely metabolized.
However, many patients cannot bear to have a tube inserted into their respiratory tract, even if they are fully awake.
Zheng Ren then remembered the time when he met a rather dirty anesthesiologist in the operating room and drove off.
"Shitou, am I not going to give you sedatives?" Su Yun asked from the side.
When Zheng Ren heard Su Yun's words, he immediately threw away his distracting thoughts.
Xiao Shitou blinked, indicating that this was the case.
"Can you bear it?" Zheng Ren asked.
This time Xiao Shitou didn't move at all. He just lay obediently on the hospital bed, and the muscles in his limbs began to relax. The values of the ventilator and monitor were normal. There was only the sound of the machine running but no sharp alarm.
He is using practical actions to show that there will be no problem.
"Okay, then we don't need sedatives." Zheng Ren stood beside Xiao Shitou's bed and said, "The operation was successful. It is estimated that the tube will be extubated and transferred back to the general ward in 48 hours."
Xiao Shitou opened his eyes and raised his left hand slightly. There is also a clip for monitoring blood oxygen saturation on the fingertips, connected to a line.
Zheng Ren did not fist bump with him, but held his cold little hand and said, "Have a good rest. I will come see you after the operation in the morning."
The cold little hand moved in Zheng Ren's hand. Zheng Ren then explained some precautions to the ICU resident on duty before leaving the ICU.
"The stone is good, your surgery... Boss, why do I feel that he recovered faster than I thought?" Su Yun asked.
"Because you are a good matchmaker." Zheng Ren said casually.
"Yeah, I think so too." Su Yun said with a smile: "In foreign countries, basically all major surgeries require two people to perform the surgery. Your surgery was very wise and you did not find anyone else. We can do it no matter what. enough."
Zheng Ren was a little surprised. Could he be serious? Or are you still chatting casually
However, Zheng Ren didn't take Su Yun's thoughts seriously. He began to think about the patient that Director Luo was talking about.
"The fish bone is stuck in the esophagus, which is very troublesome for Director Luo's patients." Zheng Ren said.
"It is inevitable that Director Mao Chimao would have to dry and grind some fish bones before they could be used. This time he ate them directly. What do you think happened?"
"Maybe it was dry-fried small fish. I ate it directly without chewing it carefully."
"Hey, boss, you actually know about dry-fried fish." Su Yun said while taking off his sterile clothes: "I always thought that you, the old man, don't eat the fireworks of the world, and you are high above, overlooking the world of mortals."
"Don't be ridiculous. What Director Luo means is that there are barbs and the fish bones have been caught, but they cannot be pulled out of the esophagus."
"Are you sure? The wall of the esophagus is so thick that as long as there is no problem with the brain, no violent operation will be carried out. If you are not careful, the fish bones that come out first may not be fish bones." Su Yun blew a breath, and the black hair on his forehead was floating, " A mouthful of blood spurted out along the gastroscope, and the person didn't even have a chance to save him."
