Divine Doctor's Harem

Chapter 586 Passenger's Breathing Difficulty



"Is there a doctor here? A passenger in the economy class is having difficulty breathing and urgently needs medical help!"

The flight attendant's voice sounded anxious and panicked, repeating the announcement three times.

Wang Chao furrowed his brows slightly, thought for a moment, then stood up and walked towards the economy class.

"Stay safe," Shen Bing said.

"Do you want me to come with you? I have some medicine in my pocket," Liu Yifei asked.

"No need, I have my silver needles with me, no medication is required."

Without looking back, Wang Chao waved to the two women and walked into the economy class from the business class.

Inside, a middle-aged man was sitting in his seat, wearing an oxygen mask and gasping for breath.

Two flight attendants and two men were anxiously surrounding him.

"How could this happen? He's using oxygen, why isn't he getting better?" one of the men said with a serious expression.

The other man looked at the middle-aged woman next to the patient and asked, "Ma'am, I'm Dr. Xu. Is he your husband? Does he have a heart condition?"

The middle-aged woman shook her head quickly and said, "He's usually very healthy, no health issues at all. Doctor, please, I beg you, please save him."

"No health issues? How can that be?"

Dr. Xu furrowed his brows and asked the flight attendant for a stethoscope to carefully listen to the patient's heartbeat and lung sounds. His frown deepened, "The heart sounds are distant, and the breath sounds are very weak. It could be either a lung or heart condition."

He stared at the patient closely.

Despite using oxygen, the patient's breathing was rapid and shallow, lips turning blue, and his eyes looked dazed, all signs of oxygen deficiency.

However, the oxygen mask was on his face, and the supply was sufficient, so how could he still be deprived of oxygen?

Dr. Xu and the other doctor exchanged puzzled glances, not knowing what to do, as they were not emergency doctors, just internal medicine specialists used to seeing patients in the hospital ward. This was the first time they encountered an emergency on a plane, and they only had a stethoscope, no other medical equipment.

At this moment, the patient's breathing became even more rapid, and he even made painful sounds while his expression turned increasingly agonized, muttering, "Save me, I feel like I can't breathe."

"I..."

Before he could finish speaking, he couldn't utter another word, just gasping for breath rapidly, as if he might stop breathing at any moment.

Seeing her husband in such distress, the middle-aged woman panicked, pleading, "Doctors, I beg you, you must save him!"

Both doctors looked at each other helplessly, not knowing what to do.

The flight attendants could only watch anxiously, unable to say anything.

As the patient's life seemed to be slipping away, Wang Chao approached calmly and said, "I thought it was a big problem, but it turns out to be a minor one."

Dr. Xu furrowed his brows slightly, sizing up Wang Chao, "Are you a doctor too?"

"Kind of," replied Wang Chao.

Wang Chao remained calm as he approached and immediately removed the oxygen mask from the patient's mouth.

"What are you doing?" Dr. Xu was furious.

The patient was clearly lacking oxygen, and this was the time he needed oxygen the most. Wang Chao had removed the oxygen mask, wasn't he causing harm?

Wang Chao placed the oxygen mask back on the aircraft shelf and turned to Dr. Xu, saying calmly, "Can't you see? I'm saving him!"

Dr. Xu was infuriated, his lungs felt like they were going to explode!

The patient's life was at stake, and he just removed the oxygen mask that the patient relied on for survival. How could that be saving him in this man's eyes?

Wasn't this just nonsense?

Dr. Xu glared at Wang Chao and sternly said, "You scoundrel, you call yourself a doctor? Can't you see the patient is lacking oxygen?"

"You casually removed the patient's oxygen mask, leaving him unable to breathe properly. You are nothing but a quack endangering lives!"

"Do you really have any medical knowledge? Are you even a doctor?"

The other male doctor was also angry and said, "Quack endangering lives, that's what you are!"

Hearing the two doctors' accusations, the two flight attendants' expressions also changed suddenly.

 

    

  

  

  

   

If Wang Chao really caused the patient to die, wouldn't they be held responsible too?

Thinking about this, they quickly tried to stop Wang Chao, "Sir, please don't create chaos, return the oxygen mask to the patient."

The middle-aged woman also glared at Wang Chao, "Scoundrel, what are you doing? Give my husband back the oxygen mask!"

As she spoke, she even tried to stand up and wrestle the oxygen mask back.

"Have you all gone mad?"

Wang Chao glanced at them all and said, "This man is clearly suffering from hyperventilation syndrome, caused by excessive breathing, which leads to reduced levels of carbon dioxide in the body."

"If you continue to give him oxygen, the carbon dioxide in his blood will decrease even more. Once the concentration of carbon dioxide in the blood becomes too low, he will die!"

After speaking, he looked around and immediately grabbed a plastic bag from a passenger and put it directly over the patient's mouth and nose.

"Hey, what are you doing?"

"Quack endangering lives, that's what you are!"

Seeing this scene, Dr. Xu and the other doctor were infuriated and tried to push Wang Chao away.

The flight attendants and the patient's wife were also horrified and tried to pull Wang Chao away.

In their eyes, the patient was already struggling to breathe, and now Wang Chao was using this plastic bag to cover the patient's mouth and nose. Wasn't he suffocating the patient to death?

"Just be patient, he'll be fine soon." Wang Chao said calmly.

As they were speaking, the patient's breathing became more and more labored, and he looked like he was about to suffocate, gasping for breath as if he could stop breathing at any moment.

Seeing this, the middle-aged woman, Dr. Xu, and the others all changed their expressions and immediately went to pull Wang Chao away. They wanted to separate him from the patient.

"If you want him to die, you better not stop me!" Wang Chao said in a stern voice.

After speaking, he activated his Genius Qi, transforming it into thin needles and pricking the hands of those people.

They immediately felt a sharp pain and withdrew their hands, looking at Wang Chao with deep fear.

"He's using sorcery! This guy is not just a quack endangering lives, he's using sorcery to harm people! Be careful, everyone!" Dr. Xu angrily accused.

The flight attendants were also terrified and wanted to stop Wang Chao, but they did not dare, so they called for the assistance of the air marshals.

Soon, the tall air marshals arrived with their weapons, ready to take action against Wang Chao.

"Stop all of you! Observe the patient's condition carefully!" Wang Chao spoke without turning his head, scolding them on the spot.

His voice was like thunder, intimidating everyone present.

The air marshals, flight attendants, and Dr. Xu all had their expressions change, quickly turning their attention to the patient.

When they saw the specific condition of the patient, their expressions changed again.

The patient, who was on the brink of death just moments ago, was now breathing more smoothly. His complexion gradually improved, and he seemed much better than before. It was manifest that he was no longer in a life-threatening situation.

"Uh!!"

Dr. Xu and the other doctor looked at the patient in astonishment, as if witnessing the most incredible thing in the world.

The patient had suffocated; he clearly needed oxygen to survive.

However, after receiving oxygen, his condition worsened, and he almost could not breathe, but when Wang Chao covered the patient's mouth and nose with a bag, the patient's condition improved and he seemed to come back to life. What kind of logic was this?

What was hyperventilation syndrome? They had never heard of this while practicing internal medicine. How did this treatment principle work?

Wang Chao looked at Dr. Xu and the others and explained, "The patient is suffering from hyperventilation syndrome, caused by excessive anxiety, leading to the expulsion of a large amount of carbon dioxide, resulting in an imbalance of acid-base in the body."

"When the bag is placed over the mouth and nose, the carbon dioxide exhaled by the patient will remain in the bag. By breathing, the patient will inhale the carbon dioxide back."

"This way, the acid-base balance in the patient's body will gradually return to normal."

"However, if the patient continues to receive oxygen, the level of carbon dioxide in the body will decrease further."

"Therefore, the best way to treat this condition is to use a bag or something sealed to cover the patient's mouth and nose."

"As time goes by, the patient's body will naturally recover."

The air marshals, flight attendants, and Dr. Xu and his companions were all taken aback, not understanding how such a treatment worked. They're completely puzzled by this new information.
