    ?

    Around 7:30, the nurses got busy again.  What was quite surprising this time was that after various routine tests, they actually brought in a strange looking heavy instrument.  The odd instrument resembled an old-fashioned typewriter.  The nurses moved it very carefully, went straight to the boy's father, and carefully and gently put it on the bedside table.

    Now, my father hasn't started the infusion, so I have nothing to do except help him wipe the saliva from his cough.  Therefore, I carefully observed every move of the nurses next door with great interest.

    I found that there was a large syringe on the strange instrument, and the syringe was filled with a white liquid, and I didn't know what it was.  The nurse connected the large syringe to the boy's father with an infusion tube.  Then, after turning on the weird instrument and adjusting it skillfully, I saw that the large syringe began to move forward slowly and automatically.  With the spontaneous movement of the syringe, the white liquid in it slowly flowed into the boy's father's body.

    "What is this thing?" The boy's father was the first to ask the question that everyone wanted to ask.

    After hearing this, the busy nurse replied with a smile: "Yesterday's examination showed that you lack sodium in your body. Therefore, director XX (the name of the boy's father's attending physician) asked us to come over early in the morning to replenish sodium for you."

    "Can this thing replenish sodium?" The boy's father asked with a puzzled look.

    "Of course!" The nurse said with great certainty, "To put it more simply, this is filled with salt water. Can you add sodium?"

    "Since it's salt water, why can't it be injected directly through the nasal tube? Why do you have to use this thing?" The boy's father still didn't understand.

    "This way the effect is better!" The nurse shrugged helplessly, "Even if the effect is the same, as long as it is ordered by the director, we have to do it. Because these are not what we can decide."

    "Dad, don't make things difficult for me!" The young man hurriedly persuaded, "What I said is right, they are just following the doctor's orders."

    The young man's father didn't say anything more when he heard the words.

    "When you're done typing, let us know." The nurse reminded with a sigh of relief.

    "How long will it take?" Seeing that the nurse was about to leave, the young man hurriedly asked.

    "Don't worry, the machine will automatically alarm when you finish typing," the nurse explained.

    "How to call the police?" The boy's father asked with great interest.

    It was said that the nurse did not know what button was pressed, and the strange instrument made a "beep" and "beep" sound.  "Did you hear that? After it's done, there will be such an alarm sound." After speaking, seeing the young man and his father nodding very firmly, the nurse pressed the same place on the weird instrument again.

    The strange instrument returned to calm again, and the nurse also left the ward.

    Not long after, the top doctors in white coats officially went to work.  This time, the doctor in charge of the boy's father came first.

    "I told you to beat food, but you just don't do it well!" The attending physician complained as soon as he came over, "It's all right, in yesterday's laboratory report, several indicators were low. Otherwise, I wouldn't  Sodium supplement with you!"

    Under the restraint of the young man's eyes, his mother finally did not explode.  I know that she must be full of complaints at this time.  Hey, you're more than justified!  What else did you say besides yelling "beating food, fighting food" all day long?  Do you think we know what to do with the simple word "beating food"?  If it weren't for the meticulous guidance on the bed next door, maybe we still don't know what to do by now?  You are irresponsible and unclear about your explanation, but you are blatantly blaming us!  Is this unreasonable?  I think that if the young man hadn't been there, the straightforward and irascible mother would have raised questions.  Hey, good luck for this self-righteous Director XX!

    The doctor in charge didn't notice the ugly face of the patient's family members at all, and continued on his own: "If you don't eat well, the nutrition will not be able to keep up, and if the nutrition is not kept up, the patient will recover slowly. Therefore,  I specially opened an extra bottle of nutrient solution for you today. Hey, there is no other solution.¡± He shook his head and sighed, and walked out unsteadily.

    I don't know if the attending physician felt a chill down his spine at that time.  If eyes can kill, then in that moment, he must have died several times.

    The so-called ward rounds of one group after another of attending doctors kicked off.

    Our family?The attending physician is one of the kindest, always smiling every time he comes over.  Today, he still took two assistants for a routine inspection.  To my relief, they didn't notice anything unusual about my father.  It's business as usual, which is what I want to see the most.

    When the attending physician was about to open the prescription, I asked, "Director XX, the bed on the south side was supplemented with sodium early in the morning"

    "I saw it. Why, do you have any questions?" The attending physician asked with a smile before I finished speaking.

    "I don't know if my dad needs sodium supplementation?" For the sake of my father, I have to ask such a question even if I hesitate in my heart.

    "That depends on the situation. As you know, there is still a lot of blood loss during esophageal cancer surgery, so after surgery, it will generally lead to a large lack of trace elements in the patient's body, especially sodium. Therefore, the nutritional supply of patients after surgery  It is very important. If the nutritional supply is normal, what the patient lacks during the operation can be replenished quickly, and the patient will have a better physique to recover. Therefore, sodium supplementation is a must! But do you need it?  Like the bed in the south, it depends on your family members. If the normal nasal feeding can meet the patient's physical needs, then this method of supplementing by external force is completely unnecessary." (It's all based on memory, so  This narrative is unavoidably different from what the attending physician said. If any scientific mistakes have been made, please forgive me.) The attending physician explained patiently.

    The attending physician's answer was inevitably mixed with some technical terms, so I didn't fully understand it.  However, I can still accurately grasp the key points.  "You mean, this sodium supplementation can be done through hunting?" I asked excitedly like a thirsty desert traveler suddenly discovering an oasis.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
