Chapter 17 Alternative Treatment Options

After returning from Taiping County, Tao Le went to the pharmacy to buy some disposable acupuncture needles.These needles are individually packaged aseptically and can meet the requirements of most acupuncture points.

Although she took Sim out for lunch today, she also brought a few boards with her, which came in handy unexpectedly.

At this moment, she took out a five-minute needle from her handbag, and while unpacking, she quickly explained: "Heat stroke belongs to severe heat stroke. And this patient belongs to the critical category of heat stroke."

"Even if the ambulance arrives now, the chances of him surviving are not high—are you sure you want to waste time here?"

It may be that what she said with a straight face showed a certain degree of professionalism; it may also be that the three colleagues did not want to bear the consequences of delaying time; or it was the needle she carried with her that confirmed her identity as a doctor , the three colleagues looked at each other, and finally decided to follow Tao Le's suggestion.

Lulu canceled the online car-hailing service and started to contact Tip's wife.Brother Zhao dialed 120, and while describing the symptoms, he handed the phone to Tao Le.

"It's heat stroke. The patient's high fever is around 42 degrees Celsius. He is unconscious, but his breathing is still smooth. We will try our best to cool him down. Please prepare for rehydration." She put down the phone and looked at the patient who had dropped to 17 degrees Celsius. Health value, took a deep breath.

An ambulance would arrive in 25 minutes, and during that time she knew she had to do something.

Because of the high fever, the patient gradually stopped sweating, and convulsions appeared in the limbs.

This is a very bad signal, indicating that the patient's body has lost a lot of water and electrolytes have been seriously disturbed.

The Goldfinger interface indicated that the patient had suffered from heat exhaustion, manifested as mild liver and kidney failure, and it would be impossible to save the patient if it continued.

Without further hesitation, Tao Le injected an injection into the patient's Renzhong acupoint.The needle is tilted upwards, and the needle is inserted about one centimeter deep.

For coma, shock and other diseases, the Renzhong acupoint, which has the effect of refreshing and resuscitating, is the first choice.

At the same time, a prompt message popped up on the purple interface in front of her.

Please select a treatment plan:

A. Lower core temperature.Number of treatments required: 1 time, increase health value by 9 points.

B. Treatment of mild heat exhaustion.Number of treatments required: 1 time, increase health value by 8 points.

C, treatment of other complications.Number of treatments required: 5 times, each time increases health by 6 points.

D, treatment of tenosynovitis.Number of treatments required: 2 times, each time increases health by 3 points.

E, treatment of dental caries.Number of treatments required: 1 time, increase health value by 3 points.

Seeing these five options, Tao Le's brain started running at high speed.The two most critical points in the treatment of heat stroke are lowering the patient's core temperature and rehydration.

A patient in a coma cannot drink rehydration fluid, and it is likely to choke into the lungs, so the infusion must be performed after the patient wakes up, or after the ambulance arrives.

The choice before Tao Le seemed very simple, choose A directly, lower the core temperature, and the disease will be under control.As for the remaining heat exhaustion and complications, there are naturally hospitals to do follow-up treatment.

The only problem with this plan is that the patient has already experienced organ failure, and there will inevitably be some sequelae, and there is even the possibility of death.

Tao Le didn't want to choose this way, she thought she could do better.

Her plan is: first treat the heat exhaustion, and then try to lower the patient's body temperature before the ambulance arrives, coupled with her acupuncture assistance, the effect should be much stronger than the previous one.

"Choose B." She calmly made a choice.

"Begin treatment for mild heat exhaustion. Countdown 8 minutes. 479 seconds, 478 seconds."

Sim has been huddled in Tao Le's arms, watching all this with cold eyes.All the emotions of the Blue Stars cannot be concealed from his perception.However, it was precisely because of this that it made him feel even more novel.

In the Mio Empire, weak people like patients lying on the streets will never attract anyone to stop.

The higher the level of civilization, the higher the requirements for each imperial citizen.Those who can't even manage their bodies well will only be despised by the collective.

Of course, city service robots will eventually come to his aid, giving humanitarian aid.

But here at Blue Star, it's completely different.

The people in front of them were basically strangers to the patients, but they generally showed sympathy and compassion, and many people even released messages of generous assistance.

And Tao Le, his titular master, poured all his love and care into the patient—this kind of enthusiasm was not much worse than what she had for him, which made him feel a little unhappy for no reason.

Does this woman treat everyone equally?Why does the hall suddenly feel that this weak blue star on the ground is a bit of an eyesore?

Before Sim could ponder the reason, his attention was attracted by another wonderful thing.

Right after Tao Le injected the needle, he clearly felt a strange energy emanating from her body and sending it into the patient's body along the needle tip.

This is a kind of energy that he has never heard before, full of vitality.Although there is only a thin trace, it is slowly eating away at the death energy that enveloped the patient.

It seems that the reason why Tao Le can become her own signal tower is also because of her own particularity.

The unbelievable thought from earlier resurfaced in Sim's mind again and couldn't get rid of it.Could it be that she really is.
He raised his head to look at Tao Le, but saw that plain face, inlaid with a circle of gold by the sunlight above his head, he couldn't bear to stare at it, but he couldn't bear to look away.

Tao Le didn't notice the ugly cat in his arms at all, and was secretly looking at him.

After lifting, inserting and twisting several times, she pulled out the five minute hand.

Although the patient didn't wake up directly, he let out a sigh like a moan.

"People have reacted, maybe they are about to wake up!" The onlookers were amazed, and the dignified atmosphere just now was lightened.

"This doctor has two brushes under his command, and the needles are really decisive."

"If you want to tell me, you can't offend the doctor if you offend anyone. They carry needles with them. If you don't come up and give you one, believe it or not, you won't be able to move!"

"Come on, you thought you were reading a martial arts novel?"

Tao Le's eyes were only on the patient, and he didn't hear the gossip from around at all.Only she knew that the patient's condition hadn't improved much, and it was still not optimistic.

She said to Brother Zhao and others who were standing by, "The patient must be cooled immediately. Carry him here." She looked up and looked around, pointing to the nearest Flying Bird restaurant: "There."

When Tao Le gave the injection, many people looked up the term "heatstroke" on their mobile phones, including Brother Zhao and the others.

Although they are all medical practitioners and don't understand many terms, they can still understand the 20%-70% fatality rate. At this time, they are inevitably a little scared.

Although Tao Le's diagnosis was still in doubt, even if there was a one-in-a-million possibility that Xiao Fei's treatment was delayed because of the relationship between the three of them, they didn't dare to think about the consequences, let alone afford them.

You must know that although Tip is not yet 30 years old, he already has a pair of children and is the pillar of the family, so there must be no mistakes.

Hearing Tao Le's order at this moment, Brother Zhao didn't say anything, and immediately called Xiao Wu to lift up the patient.The patient was tall and strong, and it was very difficult for the two of them to lift it, and two young men rushed forward to help.

The crowd gave way.As soon as several people carried the patient up the steps, they were stopped by the waiter in front of the restaurant.

 This is a real case of a colleague of the author.The young man is young and handsome, loves sports, and can talk and do things, but because of a team building competition, he got heat stroke and left his wife and two young children forever.Heat stroke is not friendly to young people. In summer, it is still necessary to avoid the heat and turn on the air conditioner when necessary.No matter how harmful the air conditioner is to the body, it is not fatal.
