Most abdominal drainage tubes are made of rubber. Rubber itself has the characteristic of easily breaking due to excessive fatigue. The reason why many doctors later switched to silicone tubes was because many similar things happened with rubber tubes. Unfortunately, silicone tubes are not as cheap as rubber tubes, nor are they as soft and elastic. Old doctors are used to rubber tubes but are not used to silicone tubes. Besides, softer and elastic tubes feel better. After all, which tube to use depends on the doctor's personal habits. But no matter what kind of tube is pulled out, it makes no difference to the doctor. It is definitely a technical job.
Medical students who have experienced surgical internship have experienced extubation. Teachers will basically give students practice in this kind of work. Having worked in the gynecological department, Pan Shihua had to pull out drainage tubes several times, so he had a good feel for this. This was the reason why he dared to use force.
Surgeons must be bold and careful.
At the same time, he looked at classmate Xie, and classmate Xie¡¯s eyes agreed that he could pull it out like this.
The rubber tube is the same as the rubber band. It has another characteristic. It has very good elasticity. If the front end is stuck and the rear end is exerted, it will appear that the entire tube has been pulled out with too much force. In fact, it is not. The doctor did not This phenomenon will occur if you exert great force. The tube will retract, and the head can only be pulled out slightly. Director Zheng is an experienced doctor, and you can tell something by listening to the slight sound of the rubber tube stretching and rebounding as the doctor pulls it out. The seemingly fierce movement is actually very light, and it probably doesn't extend much.
Dr. Jiang stabilized his emotions, squatted down and observed the drainage tube in the student's hand, and reported to the leader: "It is about half a finger long."
"It's very short." Director Zheng estimated that the patient's drainage tube was placed deep, only one centimeter in half a finger. The length of the pull-out is not a big deal. The most important thing is whether there is any effect after moving the tube. If it doesn't work, it's like trying in vain. If surgery is still needed, it will be troublesome.
"Something is coming out." Dr. Jiang said, eyes flashing with excitement as he stared at the drainage tube, indicating that hope was burning.
"Really?" After receiving the expected information, Li Guoxin immediately walked around the end of the bed, pushed Dr. Jiang away and bent down to check the situation in person.
The brown rubber drainage tube is dark in color and translucent. If something comes out of it, the doctor needs to carefully identify it. You can pinch and rub the rubber tube to let the thing slide down the drainage tube and flow into the transparent tube connected to the drainage bag. Look inside carefully.
Li Guoxin¡¯s right hand couldn¡¯t wait to reach out, and placed it below the student¡¯s grasp of the drainage tube. He flicked the tube skillfully with his fingers, waiting for things to fall into the transparent tube and transparent drainage bag.
"How is it?" Director Zheng asked them, standing on tiptoes.
"It's pus, thick and yellow." Li Guoxin's tone was complicated. This situation is equivalent to saying that the patient's body temperature increased due to the increase in pus cells. At the same time, it is estimated that diffuse peritonitis with pus rupture has not yet formed, because the pus can be removed from the patient's body. If the drainage tube continues to come out and does not flow like an open faucet, it is more likely that the remaining pus has not been drained out. However, the situation is quite critical, so be sure not to break the pus. The lack of blood flow is not a sign of major bleeding. Low red blood cells may be due to insufficient nutritional support throughout the patient's body.
"As long as the pus inside can be drained out, the fever will hopefully be reduced and there will be no need for immediate surgery," Li Guoxin said. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
