Chapter 125 Midwives

After taking the medicine, the newborn's convulsions finally eased.

Life, saved!
Although he had seen it many times, Zhao Huanzhang was still amazed. He could save such a dying navel wind in such a short period of time.

Hao Meiling was even more dazed and stupid. She once again regretted that she didn't apply for a camera, otherwise she would have captured the scene of the rescue just now. What a wonderful news material this would be.

The little fat man suffering from mumps subconsciously touched his horn acupoint, and he suddenly felt that the two strokes he made just now were a bit unsatisfactory.He felt that he was doing it again, ready to move, and wanted to do it a few more times.

Hao Meiling had previously doubted whether the light plant moxibustion could cure the disease, but now Gao Yuan saved a dying newborn in front of her. She could hardly think, and asked, "Is the light plant moxibustion so powerful?"

Gao Yuan nodded, and said: "As early as the Qing Dynasty, the "Children's Iron Mirror" recorded the treatment of treating umbilical wind by dipping the grass thirteen. There is a famous pediatric doctor in Guangzhou named Yang Heling. He wrote a book called "Pediatric Experience". "Shu Yao", once described his medical case of using wick fire to treat umbilical wind."

"However, he used eight dips, dipping once in the center of the eyebrows, in the center of the body, in the center of the belly, in the middle of the navel, and about half an inch around the navel. Mr. Yang once said, 'I have treated this syndrome quite a lot, and I know that wicks must be used for this syndrome. Fire, there is a turning point, it should not be underestimated.'”

Hao Meiling asked again: "Can it be promoted?"

Gao Yuan asked back, "Are you planning to write this article?"

Hao Meiling said: "If you can't report your deeds, it would be good to report on the method of dipping lights."

Gao Yuan thought about it for a while: "Light dipping method is not as widely applicable as traditional acupuncture, but it has better curative effect and is easier to test for certain special diseases. However, I thought of another thing. "

"What?" Hao Meiling asked.

Gao Yuan said: "Umbilical wind is a killer of newborns, and this disease is often caused by the unsterilized equipment used to cut the umbilical cord, or inadvertent contact with pollutants when cutting the umbilical cord. You must know that currently Traditional midwives deliver babies in rural areas, and they do not have such scientific awareness, so it is easy to cause illness and even death of newborns and mothers."

Hao Meiling was startled for a moment.

Zhao Huanzhang was also taken aback for a moment. This has always been the case in rural areas, so he didn't consider this issue.

Gao Yuan said in a deep voice: "So cultivating new-style midwives is the key to improving the health of newborns in rural areas and protecting the safety of mothers. The countryside is different from the city. They have no way to go to the hospital to give birth and can only rely on midwives, so this This is very important, and I hope you can report on it.”

Hao Meiling thought about it.

Gao Yuan turned his head to look at the escaped newborn, his gaze became much heavier.This child is lucky, but there are many other children who are unfortunate.

Many people know that the 626 Directive has trained a large number of barefoot doctors, but few people know that it has also trained a large number of new midwives.At that time, each brigade had one or two midwives.

It is also with scientific and reasonable delivery methods that neonatal diseases such as umbilical wind have gradually disappeared.These midwives have served the countryside for decades, and many post-60s, post-90s, and even post-[-]s were born by them.

In some more remote villages, in the early years of the 21st century, midwives in the village were still invited to deliver babies at home.It was not until the popularization of rural medical insurance and the improvement of everyone's living standards that they all went to the hospital to give birth.

By this time, the rural midwives ended their historical mission.But history should not forget them.

After thinking for a while, Hao Meiling suddenly raised her head and said to Gao Yuan, "I suddenly feel that you don't look like a doctor."

Gao Yuan looked at her.

Hao Meiling said: "You think too much more than the doctor."

Gao Yuan replied: "Because our country needs us to do a lot."

Hao Meiling nodded deeply.

Wen Hui looked at Gao Yuan with dazed eyes.

……

The couple walked away gratefully holding the newborn.

Wen Hui also took the little fat man back, because there happened to be a cattle cart going to Zixiang, and Gao Yuan was looking for it, saying that he happened to meet someone who was going to Zixiang.

"Mr. Wen, are you unhappy?" In the car, the little fat man was a little lost in thought when he saw that Wen Hui was silent.

Wen Hui shook her head: "No."

The little fat man asked, "Then why don't you speak?"

Wen Hui glanced back and said, "I'm just curious about what's in his heart."

"Huh?" Fatty couldn't understand such words with his elementary school education.

……

Three days later, the child with umbilical wind had mild convulsions again, and the parents sent the child to Gao Yuan again.Gao Yuan continued to use Shisan dipping, the convulsions stopped, prescribed medicine to continue taking, and gradually recovered.

After Hao Meiling interviewed the hygienist in Huo Township and learned more about Gao Yuan's deeds, she memorized a large article and finished writing the entire manuscript before she left.

Gao Yuan accompanied her to the county seat.

station.

Hao Meiling said to Gao Yuan: "Doctor Gao Yuan, I really hope to report your case, but I'm not sure if it can be done."

Gao Yuan was silent and squeezed a smile.

Hao Meiling looked at Gao Yuan, she knew very well what this report meant to Gao Yuan, she said, "I will do my best."

"It's okay." Gao Yuan said.

Hao Meiling said seriously: "As a reporter, I will truthfully report everything I see and hear. As a friend, I very much hope to tell the world about your ideals and deeds. As a people, I am very grateful that the country has you .”

Gao Yuan stared at Hao Meiling in a daze.

Hao Meiling extended her hand to Gao Yuan generously: "I hope one day you can stand in the sunshine innocently. I am very glad to be able to interview you and meet you, Comrade Gao Yuan."

Gao Yuan also extended his hand towards Hao Meiling.

The two shook hands, and Hao Meiling left.

After the reporter left, Wang Hanzhang ran over belatedly. He couldn't help complaining to Gao Yuan many times, worried whether something bad would be reported, and asked Gao Yuan many times, but he couldn't feel relieved.

Gao Yuan went to see Yan Zhi's situation and found that Yan Zhi had some urinary infections.Gao Yuan removed the tangerine peel from the original recipe and replaced it with a couple of pearl grasses.At the same time, Shen Congyun was asked to give Yanzhi acupuncture and moxibustion on Hegu, Fenglong, Zusanli and other points every day.

Later, Yan Zhi developed a cold, and Western medicine added antibiotics.Gao Yuan made it easier.

One month later, Yan Zhi's symptoms improved, and her swallowing and breathing became smoother, but she suffered from poor sleepiness and frequent dreams, pale and fat tongue, turbid fur, and thready pulse.There was no obvious abnormality in the heart and lungs, and the blood pressure dropped to 120/80.Gao Yuan changed the original recipe, removed mulberry and octopus, added Ziheche to warm the kidney and nourish the essence, and vine and frangipani to soothe the liver, nourish the heart and calm the nerves.

One month later, Yan Zhi had aversion to cold for half a day, which was paroxysmal, with numbness in the fingers, lower arms and legs of both lower limbs, weakness in both lower limbs, loose stools, moderate amount, one line a day, pale red tongue, floating inch pulse, delayed weak pulse.

Gao Yuan went to the consultation and thought that myasthenia gravis is a disease of weakness, and the patient is prone to external pathogens, so the pulse is floating, with slight exogenous pathogenesis, and the late pulse is weak, which means kidney deficiency, so the first thing to do is to eliminate external pathogens.

Gao Yuan Yi Fang.

After three doses, the exogenous pathogenesis is healed, and the prescription is changed to strengthen the kidney.

……

It has been two months, and there has been no report of Hao Meiling.

Gao Yuan didn't wait any longer, and after finishing his work, he greeted Wang Hanzhang.

"Are you going to the city hospital again?" Wang Hanzhang was a little surprised.
