Chapter 1222 【1222】It's Measles
The newly admitted patients with angina pectoris needed further investigation for myocardial infarction, so they were sent to the emergency room for observation.
After greeting Dr. Dong, Xin Yanjun took the students back to the consultation room to continue seeing other patients.
It seems that the medical records on the desk will never be read, and I don't know when I will have a rest tonight.
Not all patients who come to the emergency department are seriously ill, but most of them are patients who can be treated during the daytime outpatient clinic. As it is autumn now, many patients with cold and fever come to see a doctor.
A male patient who came, a young man in his twenties, said he had a sore throat.
The doctor told him to open his mouth and flashed the flashlight.
Xie Wanying, who was watching with the teacher, blinked: it was measles mucous membrane spots.
After the measles vaccination is universally vaccinated, another consequence is that the age of onset is no longer in childhood, and most of them are postponed to the adult stage. The outbreak season was postponed from the previous autumn to the following spring. The measles attack by the young man in front of him was a bit unexpected as expected by the doctor.
The patient never thought that he would get measles, but only knew that his throat was so sore that he had a fever.
"Doctor, the throat medicine I bought at the pharmacy didn't help. People said that my pain was so severe, it wasn't sore throat, it might be inflammation of the tonsils, and I needed an injection, right?"
No, you are the opposite of that little boy, measles.
Measles is an infectious disease. The doctor who received the consultation was a little apprehensive. Fortunately, masks and gloves were worn.
"You need to be hospitalized for this disease." Xin Yanjun immediately said to the young man.
"Hospitalization? No way." The young man waved his hands again and again, "I don't have the money to be hospitalized, doctor."
The clothes on the young man looked like migrant workers who went to work in the city. It's not that the doctor didn't see it, but the patient can't be hospitalized in this situation. Not to mention whether returning to the outside will infect others and make others get sick. More importantly, adults have a much higher chance of severe measles than children.
Now that the patient has a high fever, the doctor has reason to speculate that the next development of his condition will be severe.
"Do you have friends? Can you contact your family? Where is your unit?"
The doctor asked one question after another, but the young man only emphasized: "Prescribe me some medicine and give me an injection to reduce my fever. I will go back to work at the construction site tomorrow."
"Which unit do you work in?"
"I'm not in the hospital."
"You don't have to be hospitalized! You have measles!"
At this time, the doctor also has no way to retreat. The old lady doctor can definitely give way first, and then make plans depending on the next situation. If this young man is put back, his condition will rapidly deteriorate within two days and he will die.
The young man froze for a moment, as if he couldn't understand why the doctor in front of him was more anxious than the sick himself.
Those who don't know are fearless. Patients like this don't know that their death is imminent when they are not sick, thinking that they are fine. The doctor has learned relevant knowledge, and it seems that he has a prophetic eye, and he can see what is going to happen to the patient, so he can't die in a hurry.
"You have to listen to me, and tell your friends to come over quickly. I don't believe you don't have any friends or fellow villagers. Tell them that you will be in trouble if you are not hospitalized. The doctor will not lie to you." Xin Yanjun was talking, anxious to hold her hand The medical records in the hospital were turned over and over again.
A person passed by the door of the consulting room, heard the conversation inside, poked his head in and said, "Aren't you going to be hospitalized?"
Hearing this voice, several people in the room turned their faces.
It's Dr. Lee Seung-won. Xie Wanying recognized the senior surgeon outside the heart and chest.
