Since 1981 Health School Chapter 584

  Chapter 584 Battery corrosion damages the esophagus

  The child, Aziz, was lying on the hospital bed and was crying all the time. His big flickering eyes were full of tears, and he refused to eat anything. He writhed in the nanny's arms.

  Even if the young parents next to him show eighteen kinds of martial arts to comfort them, at first glance, they seem like a bear child.

  The doctors thought so too at first, thinking this must be a spoiled child.

   As a result, a sentence from the chief's wife caught the attention of the doctors:

   "Aziz, what's wrong with you? What do you want to tell your mother, oh, don't cry, you were very good before, why are you so bad today?"

  Xu Hongmei is more careful as a woman, and after hearing what the chief wife said, she asked:

   "Excuse me, is the child's usual temper like this?"

   "No, no, my prince is usually polite and obedient, maybe he is sick and uncomfortable today?"

  A personal nanny next to her hurriedly stood up to clarify for her little master.

   But this clarification made Xu Hongmei's eyes fall on the children, and she said to the colleagues next to her in Hangzhou local dialect:

   "This little boy is crying abnormally, let me check first."

  The same doctor, everyone obviously saw the problem, so they nodded one by one. After colluding with the chief and his wife, Xu Hongmei started a full-body examination.

  Dr. Xu took his temperature first, and it was normal. I checked my throat carefully and found that it was red, there was no herpes, and there was no obvious abnormality in cardiopulmonary auscultation, so I gave a preliminary diagnosis of "acute upper respiratory tract infection".

  Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, a cold, a small problem.

  Dr. Xu said seriously to the young parents:

   "It may be that you came to the hospital yesterday for cross-infection. It may be caused by fever and throat inflammation, and you can't drink milk. It doesn't seem to be a big problem so far, it's okay!"

  Director He Xinglong next to him became more and more wrong the more he listened, a common cold, would a child cry like this? :

   "Old Xu, I don't think it's right. This child doesn't seem to have a cold. Could it be that there is something wrong with the coins in the stomach and intestines?"

   Did it cause intestinal obstruction? Is it stuck at the pylorus? Did it scratch the gastrointestinal mucosa?

  Doctors often treat intractable diseases with bold assumptions and careful verification.

  Director Xu is also a little uncertain: "We can't rule out this possibility, why don't we take another picture of the kid?"

  The chief and his wife were dissatisfied with the fact that the doctor took X-rays of their child continuously within 24 hours. After all, this thing has high radiation and may affect the boy's future fertility, so try not to take X-rays if possible.

  But I have no choice but to find a chance to go to other countries to see a doctor.

  The X-ray results came out quickly, and everyone was shocked.

   There is actually a "coin" in the kid's esophagus.

  Doctors, look at me and I look at you, all of them became unconfident, and quickly found out the X-ray film of last night, and found that there was clearly only one coin in the film last night.

  Where did the coin in the esophagus come from? This is everyone's question.

  Director He was surprised: "Hey, what's going on? Does this unlucky kid eat a coin every day?"

   "This parent is really, a large group of people control a child, and let him eat another coin?"

   "Is there a custom of eating coins in Baotou?"

  The doctors were all talking about it, but they weren't very nervous. The child eats coins by himself, so it doesn't matter to the doctor, does it?

  The director of the Children's Hospital, Cao Biao, hurried over as the leader of the medical unit. After knowing the child's current condition, he was stunned and began to complain to his subordinates:

"I said what happened to you guys? You are all old experts. How did you diagnose one coin after two coins? Isn't this a slap in the face of our country, our Huaguo medical circle? How is this related? Family members explain?"

  President Cao doesn't understand the situation, so it's normal to complain a few words.

   Coincidentally, Chief Abdullah had a female secretary who just passed by, and the female secretary happened to understand Chinese, so she understood this sentence.

  So he immediately covered his mouth in horror, and quickly reported to his master.

  Director He was the first doctor last night. He felt very wronged by the dean's accusation, so he quickly took out the X-ray film from last night and said excitedly:

   "Noisy, this is last night's film, look, is there only one coin on it? Dean Cao, you have to be responsible for what you say. I can't afford such a diplomatic matter."

  Dean Cao pulled through the film and started to study it with a group of experts behind him.

   Comparing the two films, these leadership experts are also surprised:

   "Yeah, I really wronged Lao He, there was really only one coin last night..."

   On the other side, the female secretary hurried to the ward and whispered a few words to the chief and his wife.

  As expected, this kind of "misdiagnosis" is unacceptable to ordinary parents, not to mention the dignified chief of the big dog family.

   But anyway, the quality of this couple is good, they didn't make a scene, but bowed their heads and discussed:

   "Your Majesty, I don't think the level of medical care here in Hua is good. Why don't we go back to China first before my son has any serious problems, or go to the United States to have a look."

  Chief Abdullah was holding his son, and his heart was broken when he saw the crying son in his arms. Although he wanted to run away now, he needed to think about more issues.

  If he rushed to other countries to see a doctor because of his son's illness when he first came to visit, this is quite an unfriendly behavior. It is clearly not giving face to the host. How can he leave a good impression on others?

  Then his trip was for nothing, and he offended others.

  So even if he was impatient, he decided to endure it, so he gritted his teeth and said:

   "Honey, we can't just walk away like this, otherwise it will cause disputes. Even if Hua Guo's doctor has misdiagnosed, I think two coins... I don't think it's a big problem."

  When the chief's wife heard it, tears fell down, but she was helpless.

  She knew that although her family was very rich, but the country was too small and the geographical location was awkward, surrounded by wolves, tigers and leopards, she had no right to speak, so even if she was wronged, she could only bear it.

  Yes, the young lady chief thought she had been wronged and treated unfairly:

   "But honey, I think the level of doctors in West Lake City is not good enough. How about asking them to send better doctors to see patients?"

   "Yes, let's do it like this, I'll negotiate right away..."

  Relevant departments received the "complaint" and immediately assigned the Shanghai Children's Hospital next door to send the strongest medical team to Haidong as quickly as possible.

   This matter made Fan T, who arrived later, and President Li of Haidong Medical University feel extremely aggrieved.

   A small coin, the Provincial Children's Hospital still can't handle it?

   Actually lost the trust of foreign guests?

   Actually need the support from the neighboring province and city?

  Won't the people of the whole country laugh out loud when they say this?

  The huge prestige brought by Chen Qilan and Lijuan in the health system of Haidong Province suddenly disappeared, which made the health system leaders intolerable.

  After the higher-ups learned about this, they made a call to Leader Xu and severely criticized him.

  Leader Xu was so angry that he scolded Chief Fan T and Principal Li.

   Then Chief Fan T and Principal Li came back and scolded Director Cao of the Children's Hospital to the point of blood.

  President Cao felt that his lungs were going to explode, so he scolded Dr. Xu, Dr. He, Dr. Wang, Dr. Liu, and Dr. Liu in the treatment team.

   Several doctors were so angry that they jumped up and down. They knew why they were wronged so much that they hadn't "misdiagnosed", so they scolded the hospital's telephone poles again.

  In short, on this day, the Haidong health system felt like the sky was falling.

  After the experts from Shanghai and Shanghai rushed to Haidong Provincial Children's Hospital, they immediately retrieved all the medical records and inspection reports, and confirmed that it was a foreign body in the gastrointestinal tract, so they breathed a sigh of relief.

  Professor Yang, the deputy director of Shanghai Children's Hospital who led the team, had the same idea as everyone else. It's just a coin, just pull it out. These foreigners made a fuss.

   Then, in order to leave an authoritative impression on the foreign guests, Shanghai experts also brought a set of imported children's gastroscopy.

  When gastroscopy was mentioned, the eyes of Fan Tchang and Principal Li lit up, because there is an ancestor-level figure in the field of endoscopy in Haidong Province, who is also the vice president of WEO, Chen Qi.

  If Chen Qi is allowed to take out the foreign body with a gastroscope, wouldn't that be able to win the game for the health system of Haidong Province?

"Hey, Lao Yang, wait a minute, we will do gastroscopy ourselves, Chen Qi is a professor at our Haidong Medical University, he is also a director of WGO, the vice president of WEO Endoscopy Society, he can do this with his eyes closed. "

  Professor Yang was not happy when he heard it:

   "Lao Li, don't come here. Now our Shanghai experts are taking over. Besides, it's just a gastroscope to pick up a foreign body. We are also experts in this. Why do you want to give this credit to Haidong Province?"

  Seeing the smug experts from outside the province, Principal Li's nose was twisted with anger, but there was nothing he could do. Who told him that the provincial children's hospital under him was not good enough, and he was immediately looked down upon by experts from outside the province.

   Turning around, I have to scold Dean Cao severely and dismiss him from his post!

   Just when everyone thought the matter would be resolved so easily, an accident still appeared.

   After poking the gastroscope, the doctors were horrified to find that what was stuck in the esophagus was not a coin at all, but a button battery, which was similar in size and shape to a coin.

   And the situation is no longer optimistic. It is estimated that the quality of the battery in the 1980s is not good enough. It is estimated that the electrolyte inside has leaked out, and the tissue around the esophagus where the battery is located has begun to swell and rot and stick together.

  It is very difficult to take out the battery directly.

   This unexpected situation immediately made Abdullah and his wife extremely nervous. After consulting the doctor accompanying the mission about the danger of batteries, the young couple almost cried.

  Even Chief Fan T and Principal Li, who were complaining just like Mrs. Xianglin, dared not say anything.

  A battery is generally composed of an anode (positive electrode), a cathode (negative electrode) and its electrolyte, while the human gastrointestinal tract is filled with mucous membranes.

  When the button battery is swallowed into the stomach and comes into contact with the mucous membrane of the digestive system, the battery and the mucous membrane form a conductive circuit, and the battery will automatically discharge and ooze highly corrosive liquid, burning the digestive tract.

   Studies have shown that a general battery will leak after being swallowed for 2 hours.

  Especially for children, because the esophagus is relatively narrow, it is difficult to take it out after swallowing. If it is not taken out in time, it will rupture and a large amount of chemical substances will leak, and the child will face the problem of esophageal perforation.

  Once the esophagus is perforated, it may lead to tracheoesophageal fistula and even fatal hemorrhage.

   In addition, once the battery is broken, it will release a certain amount of metal ions.

  For example, alkaline batteries and mercury batteries will cover a small amount of mercury on the zinc electrode to prevent the chemical reaction between zinc and the components in the electrolyte, and the mercury content will be very high.

  These metal ions will stimulate the human body and enter the liver or brain along with the blood circulation, thereby causing great damage to the brain, nerves, and vision, and seriously endangering hematopoiesis, liver and kidney functions.

  So the condition of the child with golden branches and jade leaves is really critical.

   This time, let alone the doctors of Haidong Provincial Children's Hospital, even the Shanghai experts were confused, and they didn't know what to do.

  Principal Li reacted very quickly, with the magical Chen Qi here, what if he has a solution?

  At that time, experts in Shanghai and Shanghai could not figure it out. As a result, doctors in Haidong Province could figure it out. Then all the bad influences before could be eliminated and the work made up for.

   "Mr. Chief, I suggest letting a famous doctor in our country take a look, maybe he has a way."

  Professor Yang is a little strange: "Who is there? There is such a great **** in Haidong Province?"

   "Chen Qi, Doctor Chen Qi, you always know about it?"

  As soon as Chen Qi was mentioned, the experts in Shanghai did not refute it. It is really that this young master's record is too brilliant, almost on an equal footing with the legendary Professor Wu Mengchao of Shanghai.

   As a result, when the chief's wife heard that her son swallowed the battery, it might have been leaked, and she suddenly became furious.

   "Mr. Chief, your son is already in danger, why are you still hesitating? If you don't take your son abroad for medical treatment, I will take him there!"

   Chief Abdullah also let out a long sigh, feeling extremely dissatisfied.

   Such a serious condition, why wasn't it detected last night? As a result, the timing was delayed, leading to a suspected leak of the battery.

   Chief Abdullah received higher education in Europe and America, learned physics, and knew the danger of battery leakage, so he gritted his teeth and nodded:

   "Let's go to the nearest Japan, right away."

  The staff of Baotou country immediately acted urgently, applied for flight routes and entry, and prepared to go to Japan for medical treatment.

  Haidong's side is not easy to stop, I feel that I am “in the wrong”, who made Haidong Provincial Children's Hospital “misdiagnose” it.

  Only Principal Li kept muttering:

   "Really, Chen Qi, Dr. Chen must have a solution, you give us a chance, let Dr. Chen come and take a look."

  But no one paid attention to this poor Mrs. Xianglin, oh no, it was the little old man.

  3 hours later, the special plane took off directly from Xihu City and headed for Japan.

  The big dog left, but left behind a lot of chicken feathers. I don't know how many people will be unlucky.

  Chen Qi didn't know anything at this time, and was still worrying about the lack of money for his building.
