Medical road ahead

After the alarm was lifted, Jin Xue came and said to Qin Xiao with a smile: "Congratulations, Director Qin, you can see the rainbow through the dark clouds."

"I was able to clear my innocence so quickly, thanks to Director Jin's investigation of the Nephrology Inpatient Department in the dark."

Qin Xiao was sincerely grateful and nodded his thanks to her.

"Harm! It's just a matter of raising your hand, besides, your innocence is also the innocence of our hospital." Jin Xue waved her hand and smiled.

"Scared me to death! Scared me to death"

At this moment, Wang Xiaobo finally came out of the ambulance that had been closed for a long time, patted his chest and walked towards several people, "I thought I was going to be quarantined for holding back."

"Silly boy!"

Jin Xue stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder, and asked, "How is the patient's condition? Have the vital signs stabilized?"

Wang Xiaobo nodded, panting and said: "The breathing is smooth, but there is still some fever, and the consciousness is also very fuzzy. Now it has been handed over to the Department of Respiratory Medicine."

"It was a false alarm!" Jin Xue sighed again.

"Blame me."

After recovering, Wang Xiaobo said blushingly, "As soon as I found out that she had a high fever and was not breathing well, I immediately panicked."

Jin Xue comforted: "All kinds of pneumonia have similar symptoms, you just dealt with it more cautiously. It's okay, no one blames you."

After speaking, he patted her on the shoulder again, then turned and went back to the office.

"Hi doctor, I have been feeling sick to my stomach recently, I wonder if I have a stomach problem."

As soon as she sat down, Jin Xue received an online consultation.

"Hello, how about your usual eating habits?" Jin Xue replied.

"It's okay, I have a good appetite, I can eat anything, I can eat leftovers from my mother, I can eat leftovers from my wife, I can even eat leftovers from my daughter, I'm not picky at all. "

"puff!"

Jin Xue was amused and couldn't help joking, "Does your family have a dog?"

"I don't eat dog leftovers!" The man replied hastily.

"Ha ha!"

Jin Xue laughed loudly, and then formally interviewed him online to find out his problem
"Dr. Qiao, there is a patient in the Department of Respiratory Medicine who needs our nutrition department to participate in adjuvant treatment. Please go and have a look."

After Qiao Tan separated from Qin Xiao and Wang Xiaobo, he received a new task as soon as he returned to the office.

"Respiratory Medicine?"

She frowned and thought for a while, then asked, "But the patient from 120 just now?"

"That's right, the patient was initially diagnosed with aspiration pneumonia, and after further examination by Dr. Zhu, he found that she was still suffering from severe malnutrition, so he asked our nutrition department for help, hoping to give the patient some nutrition as soon as possible. In order to ensure the nutritional needs of his body." The nurse nodded.

"Understood, I'll go now."

Qiao Tan nodded, turned around and walked towards the building where the Department of Respiratory Medicine is located.

"Look at her teeth, they have obviously been corroded by gastric juice repeatedly. It seems that she often uses emetics."

When she came to the ward of the Department of Respiratory Medicine, she heard Dr. Zhu showing various symptoms of patients to her interns.

"And the scar on this hand."

As he spoke, Dr. Zhu lifted the patient's left hand slightly, pointed to the scarred fingers, and asked a few people, "How do you speculate about these scars?"

"Well"

The few interns took a closer look, and one of them guessed: "Bite?"

"It doesn't count."

Dr. Zhu shook his head and explained: "When a person uses an emetic to induce vomiting, they may not be able to vomit immediately. Some vomit may get stuck in the throat, so they will reach in and pick it. Frequent rubbing will definitely leave scars on your hands.”

"That's it." Everyone was stunned.

"The damage to the throat and esophagus is even greater."

After carefully putting the patient's left hand back under the quilt, Dr. Zhu continued: "Frequent vomiting will cause damage to the surface of the throat, not to mention the large amount of vomiting formed after the use of emetics, and this kind of damage is very likely to occur. Infection, therefore, this patient should experience constant sore throat and hoarseness.

There is also the problem of swelling of the laryngeal cavity. The laryngeal cavity originally grows around our lips to metabolize saliva. For some people who induce vomiting for a long time, the laryngeal cavity will slowly expand, although the whole process does not cause pain. But it will increase the metabolism of saliva, and eventually make the submandibular gland swell, causing the illusion of big cheeks.

However, swelling of the laryngeal cavity is reversible, and symptoms will be relieved after the problem of eating is improved.

As for the esophagus, it is bound to be damaged as well. Strong vomiting can tear the esophagus, and it can also cause acid reflux.When food and stomach acid flow back all the way down the esophagus and mouth, there will be damage along the way.

If the stomach acid refluxes repeatedly, it will even burn the inner cavity of the esophagus, and at this time, he will vomit blood. "

"Tsk tsk. These food bloggers are performing with their lives!" an intern sighed in amazement.

"Yes!"

Dr. Zhu also agreed with this statement. He immediately looked at the crowd and asked, "Using emetic to induce vomiting, besides the above-mentioned problems, what other problems will there be?"

"Forehead"

This made a few people ask. All they could think of was the damage to the esophagus and throat, and even the damage to the teeth and fingers was told by Dr. Zhu. Otherwise, they would never have thought that the harm of vomiting would be so harmful. widely.

Afterwards, everyone looked at each other and hesitated.

Seeing this, Qiao Tan walked in with a smile, "Will it cause irregular heart rate?"

"Doctor Joe is here!"

Dr. Zhu nodded to her with a smile, and then introduced her to several interns, "This is Dr. Qiao Tan from our nutrition department. She will assist us in the nutrition therapy for Li Jing."

"Hi Doctor Joe."

The interns greeted Qiao Tan politely.

One of the interns asked curiously, "Dr. Qiao, why does inducing vomiting cause arrhythmia."

Qiao Tan said to her: "Imagine the process of inducing vomiting, will you use force until you can't vomit?"

"Yes!" The intern nodded.

Qiao Tan explained: "During the process of vomiting vigorously, it will cause blood fluctuations, resulting in an imbalance of the electrolyte solution in the blood, and the electrolyte solution in the blood is very important for maintaining muscle function, and the heart is also a muscle. Therefore, vomiting may cause heart rate. Incomplete, severe cases may die."

"The balance of the blood and the electrolyte solution is disrupted, causing dry mouth, dizziness, swelling of the legs and arms, weakness, muscle twitches or cramps, and even seizures. But the electrolyte imbalance is reversible, and in It can be restored after the vomiting stops.

However, once the emetic is used and the vomiting continues, this reversal is difficult to happen. " Dr. Zhu said further.

"Uh"

During the conversation, the patient finally regained consciousness and slowly came to life.

"Miss Cat?!"

Qiao Tan took a closer look, only to find that the patient named Li Jing was the recently popular blogger Cat Sister.
