I really don't want to be a doctor

Chapter 62 The Emergency in the Library

There are four teachers sitting under the awning of the School of Basic Medicine, and these four teachers are the counselors of each class of their clinical specialty.

There is a bulletin board at the entrance of the library, and several forms are posted on the bulletin board, with the class of each freshman on it.

Jing Xiaoran didn't look at the bulletin board, if nothing else, he should be in the second class of clinical undergraduate.

"Sister Ji Ying, we have to go to the bulletin board first, find out which class you are in, and then report to the counselor of the corresponding class." Zhang Tao said.

"But Jing Xiaoran, why did he report directly to the teacher?" Ji Ying was puzzled.

"Oh, we don't need to worry about him. You see there are not many people in the publicity place now, and it will be difficult to squeeze in when there are too many people in a while." Zhang Tao said, "Your classmate will come here when he finds out that he can't sign up."

"Oh." Ji Ying nodded, but somehow she had the feeling that Jing Xiaoran already knew where she was from.

At this time, Jing Xiaoran had already walked towards a female teacher in the awning.

The counselor of the second clinical class is Shen Xiaorong, a woman about 40 years old, with a little freckle around her left eye, and a cold face all the year round. She treats students very seriously.

"Teacher, hello, I'm new..."

Jing Xiaoran walked in front of the female teacher, before he finished speaking, he heard a commotion from the bulletin board.

"Someone fainted!"

Someone yelled, and then there were screams and curses, and the crowd scattered like birds and beasts.

Jing Xiaoran looked around, and there was an elderly man lying on the floor near the bulletin board, and beside him was a crying girl half kneeling, who should be the family member of the old man.

Because it was a little far away from the bulletin board, Jing Xiaoran couldn't see exactly what happened.

The teachers sitting in the awning immediately put down their work and rushed over.

"Fight 120!"

The teachers dispersed a few onlookers, and then assigned some teachers to continue reporting for the freshmen.

Shen Xiaorong, the counselor of the second clinical course, has already rushed over, straightened the old man's position, and began to check his vital signs.

Jing Xiaoran walked towards the bulletin board, and found that the old man lying on the ground was unconscious, with white foam and food residue left at the corner of his mouth.

At this time, Ji Ying was standing not far from the old man, and the boy who led them in was standing next to the fallen old man anxiously.

Jing Xiaoran walked towards Ji Ying and asked, "Ji Ying, what happened?"

Ji Ying's small face was pale, and her lips were trembling: "Just now... there were a lot of people on the bulletin board just now, and this old man kept squeezing in. Senior Zhang Tao accidentally pushed him, and as a result, the old man lost his temper, and the two quarreled." After getting up, the old man suddenly fell to the ground."

"I... I don't know exactly what happened."

Jing Xiaoran looked at the old man who fell to the ground, and a trace of doubt flashed in his mind.

"Does anger cause blood pressure to rise, which in turn induces cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases?"

After checking the vital signs, Shen Xiaorong, the counselor of the second clinical department, began to perform cardiopulmonary resuscitation on the old man.

"Has the heart stopped?" Jing Xiaoran frowned.

The old man spit out more and more white foam and food residue, and a foul smell came from the old man.

Zhang Tao stamped his feet in a hurry, and everyone at the scene saw that the old man fainted after arguing with him.

"Why does it feel like something is wrong!"

Jing Xiaoran stared closely at the old man who was being rescued, the corners of the old man's mouth were always foaming, and there was no shortage of food residue.

"No! The old man's airway was not opened, nor was the airway cleaned!"

Thinking of this, Jing Xiaoran rushed up immediately, and shouted to Shen Xiaorong who was undergoing cardiopulmonary resuscitation: "Teacher, you must open this old man's airway and let him breathe, otherwise there will be a risk of suffocation!"

Shen Xiaorong, who was undergoing cardiopulmonary resuscitation, had no time to pay attention to him, while the other teachers looked at Jing Xiaoran suspiciously, this boy looked very unfamiliar, he should be a freshman this year.

One of the male teachers said: "Student, just now the teacher has opened the airway by raising the chin, so don't be too nervous!"

The so-called chin lift method is to place one hand on the patient's forehead and press it down, put the other hand on the chin (chin) and lift it up, and tilt the head back so that the nostrils on both sides are facing straight up.

This method can maximize the smoothness of the human airway, and its technique is extremely important in the process of cardiopulmonary resuscitation.

Jing Xiaoran's tone was urgent: "But there is a foreign object in the old man's mouth. If you don't clean it up, you will accidentally inhale it at any time, leading to suffocation!"

Everyone heard Jing Xiaoran's words, but no one took any action, because there was a sickening stench coming out of the old man's mouth.

Seeing that no one responded, Jing Xiaoran immediately put his backpack on the suitcase, ran to the old man's side and squatted down, and then opened his mouth.

A stench came out, Jing Xiaoran subconsciously turned his head away slightly, then resisted the discomfort, and used his fingers to dig out all the food residues in the old man's mouth.

"These teeth..." Jing Xiaoran carefully observed the teeth he was looking at, "These are false teeth!"

He quickly took off the old man's dentures. Once this thing fell off, it would block the airway at any time without realizing it.

"You...why did you take off your dentures?" Ji Ying asked aside.

Jing Xiaoran ignored her, took out a disposable tissue from his pocket, wiped off the filth from the corners of the old man's mouth, and then began artificial respiration.

Not only Ji Ying's eyes widened, but everyone's eyes widened.

Give artificial respiration to an old man with a mouth full of filth...

Several teachers looked at each other, in addition to shock, there was also a trace of shame in their eyes. This boy did what most people wanted but didn't want to do.

A circle of people stood around the library.

"Who is this boy? Why haven't I seen..."

"This year's freshman, you see he was still carrying a bag and a suitcase beside him."

"That... I remember that the international guidelines have changed the standard. Artificial respiration is not necessary during cardiopulmonary resuscitation. Only chest compressions are required. Whether artificial respiration is performed does not affect the success rate of rescue."

Of course Jing Xiaoran knew about the "new international standard", but these people only knew what it was, not why.

Why have international standards for CPR changed?

In the previous standard of cardiopulmonary resuscitation, chest compressions and artificial respiration needed to be performed together, but many people were reluctant to perform mouth-to-mouth artificial respiration when faced with this kind of rescue, thus directly giving up the entire cardiopulmonary resuscitation.

This standard has greatly reduced the treatment rate!

Therefore, in the updated cardiopulmonary resuscitation standard, the requirement for artificial respiration was removed, so more people would be willing to perform cardiopulmonary resuscitation.

After all, many people are happy to only perform chest compressions.

The international medical organization encourages everyone to carry out cardiopulmonary resuscitation in this way, not to say that artificial respiration is not important!
On the contrary, timely ventilation is an important part of CPR.

Rescue is still in progress.

　I am still hesitant to write this plot, a bit demeaning medical workers (I am myself).

　　In fact, there is no meaning of belittling. Medical staff are also ordinary people and cannot force too much.

　　This standard change is reasonable and true.

　　(Standards for CPR list "rescue breaths" as optional, chest compressions only)

　　In addition, in clinical work, breathing airbags or ventilators are used to assist ventilation, and artificial respiration is hardly needed.

　　PS: There may be mistakes in the medical knowledge in the book, but they are all carefully studied. You are welcome to point out the mistakes.
