In the upper right corner of Zheng Ren's vision, the System panel turned red as if it was about to drip blood.
The diagnosis of tetanus infection was correct.
Really … Zheng Ren found it tricky.
He had been a doctor for almost ten years, including his internship and internship. He had never seen or even heard of a tetanus bacillus infection.
Although every trauma patient would receive an intramuscular injection of tetanus antitoxin according to medical procedures, this was the first time he had seen an acute outbreak of tetanus infection.
Zheng Ren tried hard to recall. In an inconspicuous corner of the surgery book, there were dozens of words describing how to treat patients with tetanus infection.
However … Zheng Ren was still unwilling to take over. After all, he had no experience.
"Chief Physician Pan, have you treated it before?" Zheng Ren asked.
Old Chief Physician Pan shook his head and said, "I'll call for a full-hospital consultation and find the relevant departments to pick up the patient."
After that, he went to arrange for a full-hospital consultation.
The patient's family was even more uncertain when they heard the conversation between Zheng Ren and Old Chief Physician Pan. They stood at the bedside helplessly, looking at their legendary zombie-like mother and then at Zheng Ren's solemn expression. The corners of their lips moved, but they could not say a word.
An old nurse quietly walked in and calmly measured the patient's blood pressure and vital signs.
There were no problems with the patient's vital signs, which were as stable as a normal person's.
Zheng Ren also knew all of this. The fatal part of the patient's condition was not like ordinary major rescues, such as hemorrhagic shock.
This disease …
The most critical thing was …
The muscles throughout the body were tense and spasming.
Especially when the respiratory muscles spasmed …
The patient would lose the ability to breathe,
Soon …
Death …
A few minutes later, the chief and deputy chief of the relevant departments arrived one after another.
It was a thorny problem, even for these experienced medical workers and professors.
No one was willing to deal with rare diseases.
This was their responsibility to themselves and the patient.
The diagnosis was clear and no one objected.
However, when it came to treatment, no one had encountered it before. No one had experience in treating tetanus infection. They shook their heads, sighed, and left.
"Can you treat it?" Old Chief Physician Pan had no choice but to ask Zheng Ren.
"It's written in the book. I can give it a try," Zheng Ren said.
"Send the patient to the emergency ward. If there's anything you need, just say the word." Old Chief Physician Pan finally made up his mind. "I'll personally communicate with the patient's family."
Zheng Ren immediately called Su Yun and asked him to prepare a single room with thick curtains and a quiet location.
Su Yun was very active and did not ask Zheng Ren why there were so many complicated requirements.
In less than ten minutes, he received a call saying that the ward was ready.
As Zheng Ren escorted the patient, he folded a few pieces of sterile gauze together and used them as thick towels to block the patient's eyes, trying to prevent direct light from shining.
Old Chief Physician Pan cleared the road ahead of time and did everything possible to reduce the noise the patients heard along the way.
A family member was waiting at the entrance of the elevator. Once the stretcher trolley arrived, they could go straight to the emergency ward without waiting for the elevator.
Of the patient of the emergency of the emergency room to the ward.
"Patients with Clostridium tetani infection need 500ml of normal saline and 3000u of tetanus antitoxin. Inject them once a day and do a skin test before the infusion," Zheng Ren instructed.
Chang Yue was taken aback. She had never heard of tetanus antidotes that could be injected with sedation. Wasn't it usually injected under the skin or into the muscle?
"500ml of normal saline and 8 million units of penicillin. Inject once a day."
"500 ml of normal saline and 8 million units of penicillin. Inject it once a day," Zheng Ren said as he looked at the patient.
"Su Yun, contact the intensive care unit. We need a backup ventilator.
Also, prepare a sterile bag for tracheotomy. We need it at any time. " Also, prepare a sterile bag for tracheotomy. We need it at any time. "
Su Yun was not so talkative during an emergency rescue.
"Close the curtains in the ward for 24 hours. Cover the patient's eyes with a towel.
Try not to talk in the ward and don't make any noise outside. " Try not to talk in the ward, and do not make noise outside the ward. "
Patients with Clostridium tetani infection were sensitive to light and sound. Any light source and sound stimulation could cause the patient's muscle spasms to worsen, causing the disease to go out of control.
Be careful not to damage the limbs and make sure there's no blood loss in the limbs. "Have one family member stay in the room and monitor the patient 24 hours a day."
That was all Zheng Ren could think of. He left the ward after whispering the instructions.
Zheng Ren felt that he had done all he could for an unfamiliar case. The rest … was up to fate.

Doctors and nurses had a sense of destiny after working in the clinic for a long time.

Life was indeed important.
Some patients looked like they were going to die, but they recovered like cockroaches.
Some patients had no problems at all and could even go through the discharge formalities but collapsed outside the discharge window.
Although these were rare cases, it was not unheard of.
The patient in front of him was a rare case. Zheng Ren could only do his best to save him. No one could predict the outcome.
The others left the ward and began to work. Zheng Ren stood quietly in front of the bed in the dark, observing the patient's condition.
Muscle tension relaxed with the removal of light and sound sources.
'As long as there are no respiratory muscle spasms, it's a blessing,' Zheng Ren thought.
The nurse prepared the tetanus antitoxin and hung it up. Because there was no light source, it was difficult to insert the drip and there was no vision.
Zheng Ren took the needle and touched the vein on the back of the hand. He blindly inserted the needle and blood flowed back.
After the drip, Zheng Ren did not know whether it was a psychological effect or the drug's effect, but the patient's muscle spasms seemed to be improving.
Half an hour later, the patient's condition stabilized.
Su Yun pushed a ventilator over with a white sterile bag on it. Zheng Ren knew it was a tracheotomy instrument.
Even if the patient had respiratory muscle spasms, he could still be saved.
Zheng Ren breathed a sigh of relief when the most dangerous moment was over.
He left the ward and returned to the office. Chang Yue was explaining the precautions to the patient's family.
She was very detailed and serious. Zheng Ren listened for a while and felt that there were no flaws, so he sat in front of the desk and turned on the computer. He began to think about what to do if the patient's condition had a breakthrough.
The phone rang, a little loud.
"Lower the volume of your phone notifications," Zheng Ren instructed after noticing a loophole.
"Chief Zheng, Chief Zheng, look outside." The emergency department doctor's voice came through the phone.
Huh? What was there to see outside?
Zheng Ren stood up and walked to the office window.
Many people were gathered outside the emergency building of Sea City General Hospital, looking at a person.
The person in the middle was holding a large red silk banner with many words written on it. It was definitely not like the usual silk banners, which only wrote "Master of Apricot Forest".
What was going on?
+++++
After a day and a half, he was finally home.
