It’s easy to do something easy
"Doctor, this is my coach, please save him."
The young man looked at Zhao Heng and pleaded.
"Um."
Zhao Heng nodded.
The situation of the middle-aged man in front of me is a very typical spontaneous pneumothorax, which is a very rare situation.
Spontaneous pneumothorax refers to the rupture of lung tissue and visceral pleura due to lung disease, or the pulmonary bullae close to the lung surface. The fine emphysema blister ruptures on its own, allowing air in the lungs and bronchus to escape into the pleural cavity.
"His condition is a severe spontaneous pneumothorax. Now his breathing has been severely suppressed. He may not be able to wait for the ambulance to be sent to the hospital. He must be treated immediately."
After a pause, Zhao Heng explained the current situation very quickly and methodically.
Such a severe spontaneous pneumothorax has severely suppressed breathing, even to the point of suffocation. If emergency treatment is not provided immediately, it will definitely not be possible to wait for the ambulance to be sent to the hospital.
It will take at least fifteen minutes to get from here to the nearest hospital. However, the middle-aged man in front of me is already suffocating. I am afraid that within fifteen minutes, he will directly suffer from hypoxia caused by apnea.
Brain dead.
"Doctor, what should we do?"
The young man was already very anxious at this time and couldn't help asking anxiously.
At this time, the restaurant manager, a middle-aged man, also hurried in.
"Manager Wang."
When the restaurant manager came in, the young man said hello to him. They seemed to be very familiar with each other.
"Coach Song, what's going on?"
Manager Wang couldn't help but asked anxiously when he saw the middle-aged man lying on the ground, his face pale, and he didn't know whether he was alive or dead.
"I am a doctor at Dongfang Hospital. The patient currently has an acute pneumothorax and can no longer breathe. He must be treated urgently. I need you to provide me with something, is that okay?"
Seeing the manager coming, Zhao Heng asked urgently but not chaotically.
"All right."
Manager Wang was stunned for a moment when he heard Zhao Heng's words, but he quickly reacted and nodded immediately.
What restaurant owners are most afraid of encountering is this kind of thing.
Not to mention that the young man in front of him and the middle-aged man Coach Song lying on the ground also have a deep relationship with the restaurant owner.
"A small knife, a thin rubber tube at least 20cm long, a bottle, alcohol and tape, can you prepare these things?"
Zhao Heng nodded and continued.
"Yes, yes, I'll prepare it."
When Manager Wang heard this, although he didn't know what Zhao Heng wanted to do with these things, he still nodded sharply, stood up, and stumbled out to prepare things.
Manager Wang ran out, and Xu Manni, who was also squatting aside, said, "Do you want to do closed drainage?"
"Well, in the current situation, the only option is to do a thoracentesis to exhaust the air."
Zhao Heng nodded.
"Okay, I'll cooperate with you later."
Xu Manni didn't say much. Although under such simple conditions, a highly risky operation such as thoracentesis was required, under the current circumstances, this was no other option.
"Don't worry, although spontaneous pneumothorax is rare, as long as he is punctured and vented, he will get better soon."
Seeing the handsome young man squatting aside with a confused and panicked look on his face, Zhao Heng couldn't help but comfort him.
"Well, thank you, doctor."
The handsome young man felt a little relieved when he heard Zhao Heng's comfort.
He never thought that something like this would happen to the coach if he took the coach to a restaurant owned by his good friend for dinner on a whim.
After a while, Manager Li ran in hurriedly with something in his hand and sweating profusely.
"Doctor, can you look at these things?"
Manager Li handed a medical kit to Zhao Heng and said eagerly.
While he was getting things, he told the waiter, who was on the phone with the boss.
The boss is also on his way.
Zhao Heng took the medical kit and opened it. It was quite complete, including gloves, alcohol, and gauze. But the knife was a paper knife, as well as scotch tape and half a bottle of liquor left.
But this is basically fine.
"Okay, give it to me."
Zhao Heng nodded.
Upon hearing this, Manager Li quickly handed the things in his hand to Zhao Heng without daring to waste a moment.
"Disinfect first."
Zhao Heng put on his gloves and said to Xu Manni who was squatting aside.
"good."
Xu Manni nodded. As a senior nurse in the operating room, she has cooperated in countless difficult and major surgeries. Although the conditions in this situation are limited, it is not a problem for her.
Zhao Heng used a paper knife to cut open the middle-aged man's T-shirt, exposing his chest.
Seeing this, Xu Manni opened the bottle containing medical alcohol and poured the alcohol directly onto the middle-aged man's chest.
Seeing Zhao Heng and Xu Manni's very professional and skillful appearance, the young man and Manager Li couldn't help but feel an inexplicable sense of trust. They felt a little at ease and no longer felt as anxious as before.
Next, Zhao Heng held the paper knife. Xu Manni understood immediately and poured alcohol on the paper knife to rinse it. Then, Zhao Heng inserted one end of the rubber tube into the white wine inside the bottle, and then tied the transparent tape around the mouth of the bottle.
Seal tightly together with the rubber tube.
Next, comes the most critical moment.
Zhao Heng picked up the paper knife and traced the chest of the middle-aged man Coach Song, looking for a suitable place to make an incision.
As Zhao Heng, who has gathered the skills of almost all the top surgeons at Dongfang Hospital, it is not difficult for him to find the puncture location even under the current circumstances.
In almost just a few seconds, Zhao Heng relied on the rich experience in his mind to find a suitable puncture location, the line connecting the midpoint of the clavicle between the second intercostal space.
Seeing Zhao Heng pick up the paper knife and cut directly on the chest, the young man and Manager Li felt their hearts in their throats.
This kind of scene where a knife is directly applied to the chest is still very visually impactful for ordinary people.
The hearts of the young man and Manager Li were tightly grasped, and the young man clenched his fists tightly until they turned white.
Zhao Heng calmed down, carefully picked up the paper knife, used the tip of the knife to gently cut a small opening at the determined position, then used the tip of the knife to expand a small opening at the cut position, and then cut the rubber tube
Put it in and seal it with clear tape.
After a while, the middle-aged man's chest suddenly began to rise and fall slightly, and bubbles began to bubble in the liquor bottle beside him.
This is a sign that the compressed air in the chest is being discharged.
After a while, the middle-aged man took a long breath and suddenly opened his eyes.
Seeing this scene, both the young man and Manager Li felt a huge sense of joy in their chests, as if they were the ones who escaped death.
On the other hand, Zhao Heng, under such extremely simple conditions, completed such a difficult operation and saved a person's life, but he looked calm and ordinary.
But this is not surprising. For Zhao Heng, this kind of scene is just a trivial matter!
Chapter completed!
