Chapter 364 Unexpected Use(1/2)

Kunming City, Inpatient Department of the First People's Hospital.

Nurse Xiao Wang hurriedly walked into the duty room to prepare for the handover of the night shift.

As soon as I put on my white work clothes, I saw a group of nurses gathered around, chattering about something.

She walked over curiously, and it turned out that these nurses were all staring at a large screen, and several of them were holding something like a watch in their hands and operating it with enthusiasm.

"Why is it so lively? What are you all doing?" Xiao Wang hugged a familiar nurse and asked with a smile.

"Oh, you were resting during the day. Didn't you know? This is a new thing in the hospital, a portable monitor. We just put it on some inpatients in the afternoon. It is said that it can monitor the patient's physical parameters 24 hours a day and can also locate the patient.

It will also sound the alarm when you take it off, which is really useful.”

"Then what's going on with the data on this screen?" Xiao Wang looked at the various body parameter pictures on the screen and was a little confused.

"These are the physical parameters of patients wearing monitors. There is a general page that can display the general situation of all patients. Then you can click on it to see the detailed data of each patient. You can set it to update every hour or two hours.

Latest data."

"If a patient has an accident or has a physical problem, they will call the police. You see, this can also display the patient's real-time location. You can see whether they are in the ward or going to the toilet. How about it? Doesn't it look very convenient?

.”

"By the way, look, this is a portable monitor. It looks small, but it has complete functions. Press this button once to display the patient's physical parameters. Click it to view the details. Press it twice to automatically send positioning information. Press it three times.

You can set a password lock on this wristband so that the patient cannot unlock it."

"Wow, it's amazing. It feels so easy to use. Is this the power of technology?" Xiao Wang was surprised and delighted, and asked: "Which device company's product is this? It's much easier to use than those bulky monitors."

Already."

"This is a monitor produced by Sanxin. You know that the astronauts in the Tiangong Space Station used this before. This is high-end technology, and now we can use it. It's awesome." A nurse pointed upward.

, said proudly.

"Great, I'll try it tonight and see the effect." Xiao Wang was instantly shocked. When she heard that it was something used by astronauts on the space station, she felt that it was very high-tech and unique.

"Come on, let me explain to you how to use this thing. You are on duty at night, so it will come in handy."

Several nurses explained it to Xiao Wang in a flurry, and she was amazed and her eyes were full of excitement.

Soon, she learned how to operate this portable monitor system and immediately felt confident.

"Okay, if you understand, let's go to the bedside to hand over the situation together." The nurse who was taking over her shift came over and said to her.

"Yes," Xiao Wang nodded: "Let's go, I'm ready, let's go together."

As soon as he turned around, a piercing alarm sounded.

At the same time, "Danger! Patient in bed 8 has difficulty breathing." Several eye-catching red characters quickly occupied the entire big screen.

The nurses stared at the big screen, all stunned.

Xiao Wang was the first to react and rushed towards the ward at a sprint speed of 800 meters.

Bed No. 8 happened to be the bed she was looking after. It was nearby, so she was very familiar with the route and was there in ten seconds.

As soon as I entered the ward, I saw the patient in bed No. 8 with a flushed face and coughing non-stop.

The family members beside the bed were as anxious as headless flies, spinning in circles and shouting for the nurse.

Xiao Wang rushed over and took a closer look, and he immediately knew what was going on.

She pulled out the patient's oxygen tube and comforted the family: "It's okay. Don't worry. It's just excessive oxygen intake that makes it difficult to breathe. I've already pulled out the oxygen tube. It'll be fine in a few minutes."

The family members nodded worriedly and fidgeted aside.

Soon, the patient stopped coughing and breathing became easier.

Xiao Wang picked up the patient's wrist and pressed it. The physical parameters were displayed on it. She compared it with the bedside monitor and confirmed that the patient had returned to normal, and then she felt relieved.

At this moment, the family members also knew that there was no danger, and immediately asked with a straight face: "Nurse Wang, what's going on? Why are you having trouble breathing so well? Is there something wrong that you didn't tell me?"

Xiao Wang smiled and said: "Don't worry, I'll see what's going on. Maybe it's nothing serious."

The family members still said reluctantly: "How can everything be okay? He is almost critically ill. Call the doctor over quickly and take a look!"

Xiao Wang picked up the oxygen tube and was shocked when he saw the oxygen flow reading on it.

"Why is the oxygen flow rate so high? It has soared to 6l/min. It's not strange to be over-oxygenated."

She was puzzled: "This patient has a history of chronic bronchitis, and there was no special instruction to adjust the oxygen flow. How could he adjust it so high?"

"Could it be that the nurse from the previous shift changed the temperature? Or maybe the family members made a fuss?" She was hesitant for a moment.

The family members also reacted and immediately said angrily: "We didn't touch the oxygen tube. Your nurse must have adjusted it randomly. It almost killed someone. I'm going to go to the hospital to complain!"

The nurse who took over the shift also rushed over at this time. When he heard this, he immediately retorted: "I didn't move the oxygen tube. He has been hospitalized for several days. The oxygen flow rate has been good before. Someone must have moved it and something happened.

"

The family members glared angrily: "Then I didn't move, and you didn't move either. Was it the ghost in the ward who did it?"

The atmosphere in the ward instantly became tense and tense.

Suddenly, a timid voice broke in.

"Can't you adjust this pipe yourself?"

Everyone turned around and saw the patient lying on the bed, asking questions with a confused look on his face.

Xiao Wang shook his head and explained patiently: "Of course you can't move around. If the oxygen flow is too high, something will happen. Continuous inhalation of oxygen at a high flow will lead to oxygen poisoning. Fortunately, you found it early and nothing happened. If you had to inhale for a while longer,

It’s time to send first aid.”

The patient was instantly shocked and said with a panicked look on his face: "Ah, I just went to the toilet and adjusted this myself when I came back. Don't they all say that high oxygen content is good for the body? I just adjusted it, but I don't know

It will be poisoned!"

"This..." Xiao Wang and the nurse on duty were immediately speechless.

The family members were also stunned and speechless for a moment.

The nurse who took over the shift glanced at the patient's family and said angrily: "Don't move these tubes in the future. It's easy to cause problems. I almost got oxygen poisoning today."

The family members knew they were wrong and quickly apologized with a smile.

Xiao Wang checked again carefully to confirm that the patient was no longer feeling unwell, and then walked to the next ward with the nurse on duty.

The two of them shuttled back and forth in the ward, sighing with emotion as they handed over their shifts.

"What do you think this patient was thinking? Why did he suddenly have a convulsion to adjust the oxygen flow?"

"That's right. I can understand even if he is extubated. Why would he think of adjusting the oxygen?"

Xiao Wang also found it incredible and couldn't understand what was going on in the patient's brain circuit.

The nurse who took over the shift patted her chest and said with fear, "Fortunately, this matter was discovered early today and nothing serious happened. Otherwise, I would have to bear the blame and I would definitely have to write a review. If the family complains, I will be finished."

Xiao Wang consoled him: "Nothing happened. The patient called the police as soon as he started to have difficulty breathing. We arrived quickly. With this Sanqing portable monitor in the future, we will no longer be afraid of the patient moving around."

The nurse who took over the shift nodded repeatedly: "Yes, with this monitor, our nurses' work has become much easier, and we no longer have to worry."

"These thirty monitors were sent by the manufacturer for trial use. I never expected that the effect would be so good. Unfortunately, the number is a bit small and not enough. There are still many patients who haven't worn them. I will have to follow up with the hospital carefully later.

In response, purchase another batch and try to equip every patient with it."

"Such a high-tech thing and a new product must be very expensive, right? The hospital may not approve it," Xiao Wang said worriedly.

The nurse who took over the shift shook her head: "You are wrong about this. It is not expensive at all. It is much cheaper than the bedside monitor. It seems to be only 3,000 yuan. It is really cheap among the equipment. It is mainly easy to use and can avoid a lot of problems."

You know, the trouble is worth it just for this reason."

"Ah, so cheap?" Xiao Wang was also shocked by the price: "This price is too conscientious, can the manufacturer still make money? It's not just making money at a loss, right?"

"Who knows, as long as it's cheap, it's fine. The equipment industry is very deep. You'll know when the official purchase begins."

The nurse on duty looked around and said in a low voice: "This is a matter for the directors and deans to consider. Let's not think too much about it and just respond to the matter truthfully."

Xiao Wang nodded and said no more.

Not long after the handover between the two was completed, Xiao Wang returned to the duty room, ready to take a rest and wait for the next round of inspections.

Time passed quickly. By around 2 a.m., Xiao Wang had completed a ward inspection. Sitting in the duty room, he felt sleepy and just wanted to lie down on the table and take a nap.

However, nighttime was a time when accidents were most common, so she didn't dare to sleep seriously. She could only yawn and open her sleepy eyes, trying to find something to do for herself to distract her attention.

Suddenly, the piercing siren sounded again.

Xiao Wang was stunned for a moment, a little slow to react, and it took him a while to realize that something had happened again.

She rushed to the big screen and saw only a line of red characters: "Danger! The patient in bed 27 is leaving the hospital and has left the selected range."

"What the hell! Did the patient sneak out of the hospital?" Xiao Wang looked at the red dots at the bottom of the screen and the movement trajectory diagram. He couldn't help being shocked, and his sleepiness disappeared instantly.

She clicked in at the speed of light, and what was displayed was the map of the hospital and its surroundings. In addition to the inpatient department, nearby streets and buildings were also on it.

The red dot representing the patient has now left the inpatient department building and is slowly moving towards the hospital door. It is estimated that it will reach the street in a few minutes.

Other nurses in the duty room were also alerted by the sound of the alarm and came over to watch.

The nurse in charge of bed 27 panicked when she saw this scene: "Oops, this patient is a myocardial infarction patient. He was rescued just three days ago and is still in the hospital for observation. He must stay in bed absolutely. If he is on the street,

If you run around, something will happen."
