Chapter 8 Acupuncture and Moxibustion for Relief of Asthma

The little nurse didn't bother to catch her breath, and said anxiously: "Doctor Yan, Hasqiqige's asthma is attacking again, you should go and have a look."

Upon hearing the situation, all the doctors ran to the intensive care unit.

This Haschi Qige is a patient who has just been transferred to the intensive care unit in the obstetrics and gynecology department. She suffers from severe asthma. The obstetrics and gynecology department has rescued her from the gate of death many times.

While running, Yan Bing asked, "What's the patient's condition now?"

The little nurse quickly replied: "President of the hospital, the patient's asthma suddenly attacked again. We used salbutamol nebulization inhalation as before, but this time it didn't work at all."

Yan Bing continued to ask: "Have Director Liu and Dr. Liang been notified?"

The little nurse replied: "Director Liu and Dr. Liang are going to the city for a meeting today, but they can't get through the phone."

At this time, Huang Su shouted at Na Risong: "Na Risong, you go to the Chinese medicine department and get the silver needle bag from my cabinet, hurry up."

When Na Risong heard this, he nodded, turned around and ran quickly to the outpatient building.

In the race against time, Dr. Yan brought Huang Su and several doctors into the ICU. They saw the patient wearing a nebulizer breathing mask, panting rapidly, his chest heaving violently, his face turned blue, and his whole body was dripping with sweat.

The accompanying family members were anxious and helpless looking through the window at the patients suffering from the disease.

Yan Bing first put on a stethoscope and listened to the lung function first, and heard a heavy wheezing sound.

He took off the stethoscope and asked, "What dosage of albuterol did you use?"

An assistant physician replied: "Total hospitalization, the maximum dose of 2.5mg has been used, and there is still no relief."

Assistant physicians do not have the right to prescribe, and they need to follow the prescriptions of the attending physician and resident physician to treat patients, so as soon as the patient's asthma attack, they hurriedly called Yan Bing, because only Yan Bing and Huang Su have the right to prescribe among the medical staff here .

Huang Su obtained the qualification certificate during his postgraduate studies.

Yan Bing frowned slightly. In fact, there is no medicine that can completely cure asthma in Western medicine. All nebulized medicines and intravenous injection medicines can only relieve asthma.

"Inject another 40 mg of methylprednisolone sodium succinate intravenously, and see what happens." Dr. Yan gave the doctor's order very calmly, and directly used the maximum safe dose.

The assistant physician immediately prescribed the medicine and handed it to the nurse.

Not long after, the nurse came in with a box of 40mg methylprednisolone sodium succinate, prescribed the medicine, dissolved the powder in glucose, drew the medicine, and injected it intravenously in one go.

Everyone is quietly waiting for the effect of the medicine.

There was a sound of hurried running outside, and Na Risong quickly ran into the ward.

"Director, here is the needle box."

When he came to Huang Su, he supported his bent knee with one hand and panted violently, and handed the silver needle box to Huang Su with the other hand.

Huang Su took the silver needle box and said tentatively to Yan Bing: "Doctor Yan, why don't you let me try acupuncture. If the condition is delayed like this, not only the patient is in danger, but the fetus in the stomach is also in danger of suffocation and death."

Yan Bing frowned slightly, with a hint of impatience, after a while of meditation, he said: "The medicine just injected hasn't taken effect yet, I'm waiting to see!"

Seeing that Yan Bing's attitude was so clear, Huang Su stopped talking and stared at the patient struggling in pain on the hospital bed.

As time passed by, the patient's face turned from blue to purple. Hearing the sound of wheezing, he could feel the pain of chest tightness.

An hour later.

Seeing that the patient's condition had not improved, Huang Su anxiously looked at Yan Bing and asked, "Doctor Yan..."

Before Huang Su finished speaking, Yan Bing nodded acquiescingly.

Huang Su led He Hui to the hospital bed and said, "He Hui, you disinfect the silver needles. The nurse helped the patient sit up and unbuttoned the hospital gown to expose his back."

"Look down."

Huang Su's fingers followed the patient's cervical vertebrae to touch the Dazhui point in the depression under the spinous process of the seventh cervical vertebra, took out a one-inch needle, and used the method of flattening and flattening, and the needle was inserted half an inch.

While lifting, inserting and twisting, Huang Su felt that there was no resistance when the silver needle penetrated the acupuncture point.

Huang Su frowned slightly, her luck was too bad, she didn't get angry at the first injection.

Deqi is the needling sensation when acupuncture is applied in traditional Chinese medicine, and it refers to the meridian qi induction produced after the needle is inserted into an acupoint.

"Biaoyou Fu" said: "When the qi reaches its peak, it is like the ups and downs of a fish swallowing the bait; before the qi arrives, it is like the depth of a quiet hall in a leisurely place."

Huang Su frowned slightly, her acupuncture technique was completely learned from Chen Jingshan.

He is not good at acupuncture and moxibustion, and his techniques are limited to tonifying and reducing methods, lifting and reducing methods, and lifting and interpolating methods, and his level can only be said to be moderate.However, more than 20 years of medical experience in his previous life gave him countless experiences in dealing with the failure of getting angry.

If you fail to get qi, you need to re-adjust the acupuncture point, angle and depth, use the necessary techniques, and do the acupuncture again. Generally, you can get qi.

If the patient has been ill for a long time and the body is weak, resulting in insufficient meridian qi, or local insensitivity due to other pathological factors, and it is difficult to get qi, acupuncture can be used to push qi, or needles can be used to wait for qi.

Huang Su stopped needling first, and ran her fingers along the thoracic vertebrae to find the Fengmen acupoint located [-] inches to the side of the second thoracic vertebrae, and then performed needling again. When the needle entered the acupoint, she felt a sense of heaviness and tension while lifting, inserting and twirling.

Huang Su said to the patient: "If you feel sore, numb, and heavy at the place where I am applying the needle, you can just nod your head."

When getting qi, the patient will also feel soreness, numbness, swelling and heaviness under the needle.

Seeing the patient nodding his head slowly, Huang Su lifted, inserted and twirled the first injection again, but still did not feel de-qi.

Taking out the first needle, Huang Su became more cautious this time, and changed the technique, pinching the skin at the acupuncture point with the pressing hand, and applying the needle again with the pricking hand, and finally felt a gradual and tight feeling under the needle, and it was long breathed a sigh of relief.

Huang Su continued to ask: "Does this position feel sore, numb and heavy?"

Seeing the patient nodding again, Huang Su found the Feishu point between the thoracic spine and the shoulder blade and performed acupuncture again.

When feeling de-qi, Huang Su can obviously feel the patient's shortness of breath slow down, and hear the patient exhale heavily.

Dazhui point is the Governor Meridian point, the Governor Meridian goes up to the brain, governing the Yang Meridians, and is the sea of ​​Yang Meridians. The effect of dispersing lung and relieving asthma.

Fengmen acupoint is the point where the Foot-Taiyang Meridian and Du Meridian meet. Intensify Qi and solidify the surface, prevent colds and colds.

Feishu point is the back-shu point of the foot sun meridian. It is a specific point for the infusion of the essence of the lungs on the back.

The use of the three acupoints together can reduce the airway resistance in the lungs during the attack of asthma, and even if the wheezing is relieved, the lung function can be continuously improved during the remission period.It is most effective for simple bronchial asthma.

In just three needles, Huang Su's forehead has soaked a thin layer of sweat.

Regardless of the sweat on his forehead, he first observed the patient's condition, and saw that the purple color on the patient's face had faded, and his breathing had eased a little.

Huang Su asked: "Is the chest tightness relieved now?"

The patient nodded slightly with grateful eyes.

Seeing that the patient turned from danger to safety, the family members of the patient walked into the ward quickly, held Huang Su's hand excitedly and said, "Thank you so much, doctor, every time she gets sick, it's like walking through the gate of hell. I am both anxious and distressed. "

As he said that, he was about to kneel down to Huang Su.

Huang Su hurriedly supported her and said, "Family family, what are you doing, don't get excited. It is our duty to cure diseases and save lives."

The family members tightly grasped Huang Sudao's hand and repeated: "Doctor, please, please! Please save my wife."

"Family, please calm down first, wait for three or 10 minutes before starting the injection, and we will check on your wife's condition together." Huang Su comforted the family.

The entire treatment process was presented in Dr. Yan's eyes.

This is the first time she has seen acupoints and meridians that have not been proven in traditional Chinese medicine to treat patients. The scene in front of her has destroyed her scientific view of the past ten years.

Just then, the phone in her pocket rang suddenly.

Yan Bing took out the black Nokia mobile phone in his pocket, connected the phone and said, "Director!"

Dr. Liang's voice came from the mobile phone: "Dr. Yan, the director and I are rushing to the hospital by car. How is the patient's condition now?"

Yan Bing still spoke flatly: "Director Huang has controlled the patient's condition with acupuncture."

After a brief silence on the other end of the phone, Dr. Liang's voice said, "Okay, let's talk about it when the director and I return to the hospital."
