Song Lin couldn't stand it anymore. She stood up and said, "Deputy Director, I recommended Huo Mien for promotion. I also think highly of her. I know her well. She saved a pregnant woman in the First Hospital and performed an emergency C-section. A few days ago, she also saved President Wu's niece, Dr. Wu Xiaoxue. Isn't that enough?"
"That's stupid. Individualistic. She's just trying to be in the limelight. She almost ruined our hospital's century-old reputation."
Huo Mien smiled elegantly. She stood up and nodded politely to the doctors and leaders sitting around her. Then she asked with a smile, "I heard that Deputy Director Guo used to be an expert in neurology. Is that true?"
"Yes, so?" The deputy director glanced at Huo Mien arrogantly and replied.
"Very good. Then, as an expert in neurology, you should know how to deal with the routine care of neurology patients in the later stages, right?"
"Do you still need to ask such a simple question?"
"But the database I got from South Side shows that we receive a large number of neurology patients every year, but very few of them recover. Why is that?"
"Heh, as everyone knows, neurology patients are very difficult to cure. Even hospitals can't cure them. As a sanatorium, how can we cure them? Are you kidding me? "
"I'm not kidding. I'm serious. Although neurology patients are very difficult to cure, clinical trials in the United States show that if the later stages of treatment are properly taken care of, the patients will feel better. In other words, the follow-up recuperation is more important than the early stage treatment. However, as an expert in this area, you don't pay attention to this point, which leads to the loss of many neurology patients every year. I'm not an expert in neurology, and I don't have a professional education, but I've read a lot of books and often observed patients' conditions when I was in school. When I was in the First Hospital, I saw a lot of similar clinical cases, so I've done some research.
"Okay, I'd like to see how an ignorant nurse like you would analyze our Department of Neurology." In the deputy director's opinion, Huo Mien's approach was ridiculous. It was nothing more than asking for humiliation. It was difficult for a non-professional doctor to answer professional questions.
Huo Mien picked up the glass and took a sip of water. He then looked around and said, "What I'm about to say is my personal opinion. If I've said something wrong, please forgive me."
President Wu gave him an encouraging look and nodded at Huo Mien …
She nodded in response and said, "The nervous system consists of the central nervous system formed by the brain and spinal cord, and the peripheral nervous system formed by the cranial nerves and spinal nerves. The symptoms and signs of neurology were: consciousness disorder, speech disorder, sensory disorder, movement disorder, speech disorder, seizures, amnesia syndrome, brain hernia, and so on.
As for the follow-up recuperation of these patients, the general nursing care must meet a few standards. First, the ward must be kept quiet, clean, and ventilated. For the more serious patients, visits must be reduced.
"Second, rest and lying position. Chronic patients are encouraged to get out of bed and move around, but to avoid fatigue, consciousness disorder, and excessive respiratory secretions, the semi-recumbent or lateral position is mandatory.
"Third, nutrition and diet. For these patients, they must eat more fresh vegetables and fruits to facilitate the unobstructed bowel movement. For those with complex dysphagia, a viscous, semi-liquid diet should be adopted. They must be careful when eating and slow down to avoid choking and suffocation. For those with severe dysphagia, nasal feeding should be given. After eating, they must maintain a semi-recumbent position for 30 to 60 minutes before returning to their original position.
"In addition to these, there are also daily care, skin care, drainage care, pharmacotherapy care, and observation of the patient's condition. For individual patients, post-cerebrovascular intervention care is required. After discharge, discharge guidance is required to guide the patient to come back for regular checkups. Some patients must also be cautiously warned about the precautions after recuperation, such as forbidding asexuality and lumbar puncture for patients with high intracranial blood pressure to avoid inducing brain hernia.
"Due to time constraints, I won't introduce you one by one, but I believe that all of you understand. Overall, I feel that the recuperation area has a great responsibility and obligation for the patients' subsequent recuperation. I hope that all of you will take this seriously. Thank you, everyone."
Huo Mien did not repeat a single word, nor did she make a single mistake. She did not speak quickly, but her voice was clear and melodious.
When she finished speaking, the older professional doctors were all dumbfounded …
Deputy Director Guo's expression changed again and again …
Huo Mien's words did not sound like something a junior head nurse would say. She was clearly a doctor in neurology.
"Deputy Director Guo, what do you think of Huo Mien's words?" President Wu asked Guo Yumin in a serious tone.
