Chapter 32 The Kitten in Shock

"Catman?"

Why does this word seem to have an impression... I can't remember it.

But now Xu Xing still has more urgent things to do.

So I went back to Chen Yao without thinking too much: "Let them watch."

……

The one-month-old kitten in front of him was found by a man in the green belt outside his unit.

When it was found, there was only the kitten itself and no mother cat.

I don't know if the female cat is out for food or has been...

The kitten was so hungry that it was skinny, only the size of a palm.

It may have been days without eating.

very weak.

The worst thing is that the kitten can't swallow now, and the food can't be fed at all.

Xu Xing reluctantly poured a little glucose into it, but it didn't help at all.

This kitten was too dehydrated, and if he didn't replenish his body fluids in time, he would die of dehydration.

In this case, oral rehydration solution is not feasible,
The rest is subcutaneous, intravenous, or intraperitoneal.

But the condition of the kitten is very poor, and the effect of subcutaneous or intraperitoneal rehydration may not be very good.

Xu Xing decided to be on the safe side and use intravenous rehydration.

But for intravenous rehydration, an intravenous indwelling needle is inserted into the kitten's blood vessel.

Just like many children hang water, a meridian indwelling needle will be placed on the hand, so that there is no need to prick the needle again every time the water is hung.

Originally, this kind of basic operation was done by assistants, but today none of them dared to give needles.

Because the kitten's blood vessels are so thin that they are almost as thick as the smallest needle.

A little carelessness can puncture a blood vessel.

The kitten is more than one month old and has not yet been weaned. Its legs are almost as thick as Xu Xing's little finger.

A big challenge.

Whether the kitten can live depends largely on whether the indwelling needle can be inserted.

The man who brought the kitten also knew that it was very difficult. Although he was worried in his heart, he also comforted him: "Doctor, don't worry, even if you can't get it, I don't blame you."

After hearing this, Xu Xing nodded towards him, took a deep breath and began to insert the needle slowly.

The sharp steel needles easily pierce the kitten's skin.

The next choice of needle insertion angle and direction depends on Xu Xing's experience.

Because the moment the steel needle pierced in, the blood-colored veins had turned white and became the same color as the skin.

He could only slowly adjust the needle insertion angle based on his memory and past experience.

After determining the needle insertion angle, Xu Xing pushed forward gently without feeling any resistance.

The steel needle may or may not be in the blood vessel...

This depends entirely on the doctor's experience.

"right here."

Xu Xing no longer hesitated.

Because of this kind of blood vessel, if the steel needle is adjusted two or three times, the blood vessel will be pierced in half, and the needle will not be able to be inserted at that time.

Must be fast, accurate and ruthless.

Hold the tail of the steel needle with your middle finger and thumb, and gently push the soft plastic part with your index finger...

The soft needle pushes forward without hindrance.

"Yes." Feng Xingxing watched nervously from the side, and was relieved when he saw Xu Xing smoothly push the soft needle.

Push the soft needle all the way to the end, and then withdraw the steel needle inside.

Generally, after the steel needle is withdrawn, if you don't press the blood vessel with your fingers, the blood will flow back along the steel needle.

However, Xu Xing did not press the blood vessel this time, and no blood flowed out at all.

He didn't know whether the soft needle was in the blood vessel or not.

If there is no blood flowing out of the blood vessels, it can only mean that the dehydration is too serious.

At this time, the little cat was lying there dying, and he didn't even have the strength to move.

"This little cat is so pitiful."

Other guests in the hospital also came here to take a look, all of them frowned, showing worried expressions.

"Yes, this kitten is too small and dangerous."

……

Although it is difficult, there is hope if you try hard, right?
"Give me the needle." Xu Xing was so focused that he hardly heard the words of the people around him.

He took the 2.5ml needle from Feng Xingxing, and slowly injected the normal saline inside into the indwelling needle just inserted.

This process is called "passing the needle", in order to check whether the indwelling needle is normal.

If it is pierced, or the indwelling needle is not in the blood vessel, when the saline is pushed, it will bulge.

If it is in a blood vessel, it will go in smoothly.

Xu Xing tapped the needle slowly, 0.5ml... 1ml...

Pushed in smoothly,

no bulge,

A success.

"Doctor Xu, you are amazing." Feng Xingxing and Shen Xueni who was beside him exclaimed excitedly.

"Needle hat."

The indwelling needle is not over yet.

Next, how to fix the indwelling needle on the kitten's leg is also a matter of knowledge.

How to ensure that the needle can be used for three or four days or even longer?

This is very important.

Especially for kittens who are difficult to get needles, an indwelling needle can save lives.

Wrap the last layer of self-adhesive tape, and the process of embedding the indwelling needle is finally over.

Thousands of times of practical exercises have brought about today's success... Li Yingqi, Feng Xingxing and the others need to practice more.

Otherwise, relying on Xu Xing every time is not enough.

"Okay, take it to the incubator. Xiao Feng, give the kitten an infusion according to my prescription."

Xu Xing paused, then spoke again:
"By the way, the infusion pump heats up, 10ml/h for the first 20 minutes, and 5ml/h for the rest. Of course, this is not absolutely the case."

"According to the infusion science I taught you, observe breathing and heart rate in time, and adjust the infusion speed, you know."

Feng Xingxing hugged the kitten and nodded, "I understand."

"Well, if you have any questions, come to me in time."

After speaking, Feng Xingxing led the owner of the kitten to the cat ward.

At this time, Xu Xing had already devoted himself to the next case.

This is a two-year-old Siamese cat with one egg. Today I want to see where the other egg has gone...

These days, even eggs can play hide-and-seek...

……

……

Just now after Chen Yao asked Xu Xing for instructions, she came to the lounge and saw that guy Fomalhaut lying there sleeping with his arms stretched out.

Ruthlessly, he hugged him as soon as he gritted his teeth.

Even though Fomalhaut is very big, he is not heavy, or even if he is a little heavy, girls can easily pick him up.

Maybe cats are such creatures.

Can be light or heavy.

Fomalhaut has gained a little weight these days, weighing nearly 20 catties, but compared with his slender body, he still looks a bit thin.

"You little cat, you can really sleep." Chen Yao lovingly stroked Fomalhaut's head, and couldn't help rubbing her head against it.

Cat sucking...a skill that can be learned without being taught.

Whether it's the first time you've seen a cat or the first time, if you really like that cat, you can't help but want to suck it.

Cats are such cute creatures.

Don't suck, it's really too wasteful.

The two children were originally sitting on the sofa, but when they saw Chen Yao approaching with the white cat in her arms, they jumped off the sofa excitedly.

Clapping happily on the spot: "Catman is here."

……

Catman is here.

But Catman didn't quite come.

Because he hasn't woken up yet.

 Ask for recommendations and follow up.
