Motion sickness?
This seemingly common symptom that many people experience in their daily lives could, at critical moments, become a deadly weapon!
During motion sickness, typical symptoms include dizziness, nausea, pale complexion, and in severe cases, there may be vomiting and even increased strain on breathing and blood circulation.
The patient already had a ruptured interventricular septum, coupled with manifestations of secondary heart failure. If there is violent vomiting, it could even lead to an additional burden on the heart, and once electrolyte imbalance occurs, this ambulance could at any moment turn into a hearse!
This is not a joke.
Sometimes, what is the duty and mission of an emergency physician?
Perhaps not everyone is quite clear about that.
The greatest skill of an emergency doctor is to “perfectly” transfer the patient to the hospital, and then stabilize the patient’s life with all their might, after ensuring there is no danger to life, hand over to other related specialties.
This requires the emergency doctor to have sufficient capability, self-cultivation, and perspective to deal with all sorts of ensuing matters.
And “perfect” is the direction of their efforts, where they cannot overlook any clues, however small.
Chen Cang started to think!
After a while, Chen Cang directly said, “Xiaolin, prepare a dose of diphenhydramine for intramuscular injection!”

Xiaolin nodded, opened the emergency kit that she carried with her everywhere, and started to prepare.
At this time, the hospital director had finished processing the transfer procedures, and the man hurriedly looked for a few younger brothers to scramble about starting to raise money.
After all, his family was in the local village nearby, and it was not far away, so it didn’t take long for him to pack a bag and prepare some essentials.
After finding Chen Cang, he quietly asked, “Doctor… how much money should I prepare in advance?”
This actually stumped Chen Cang, “I really don’t know the exact amount, you bring ten or twenty thousand, you can deal with the expenses at the hospital later, don’t worry.”
The man heaved a sigh of relief, scratched his head and laughed, “I thought emergency services wouldn’t treat without upfront payment.”
Chen Cang didn’t have time to chat with the man and continued speaking to Xiaolin:
“Maintain with glucose solution plus 10mg of nitroglycerin to reduce cardiac preload!”
“Morphine, 3mg, intramuscular injection!”
Chen Cang’s sole purpose was to keep the patient fully sedated!
Sleep!
If she could sleep quietly the whole way without experiencing any motion sickness reactions, such as vomiting, that would be the best outcome.
Of course, the dose of morphine also didn’t need to be too large, because the old lady’s body might really not be able to tolerate it.
Thus, a group of people began carrying the old lady downstairs.
Actually, a hospital without an elevator would be better off built as a single-story bungalow for easier patient transportation.
Moreover, there’s plenty of space in rural areas, so there’s no worry about limited space.
Instead, building it into a multi-story structure can sometimes be quite awkward.
After all preparations were complete, the old lady was placed in the ambulance, and Chen Cang and Xiaolin moved to the back.
Because this journey was bound to have its bumps!
Xiaolin was a bit nervous; the balloon-type mask and amiodarone had already been prepared and set aside, ready for resuscitation at any moment.
Everything was finally ready!
The challenging journey begins!
Old Yang glanced at Chen Cang and asked, “In a hurry?”
Chen Cang shook his head, “Take it steady.”
Old Yang nodded.
After the vehicle started, the director and attending physician of the Nanqiao Township Health Center sighed in relief.

Such a difficult patient was truly a burden for them; they both had expended a lot of effort over the past two days, from yesterday to today.
It wasn’t that they didn’t want to make an effort, but their abilities were truly limited.
When Old Yang was driving, he had a good habit: he would always notify Chen Cang in advance if there were any bad road conditions.
Xiao Lin, quick on the uptake, hurriedly attached the ECG monitor to the patient.
On this trip, all three of them had to watch “TV”!
The pulsing numbers and curves on the small monitor were what the three of them were all concerned about.
With a distance of 100 kilometers, they estimated it would take two to three hours.
The mountain roads were rugged, worrying on the inclines and even more nerve-wracking on the declines.
The elderly lady’s eldest son held his mother’s hand in his palm and couldn’t help but sigh.
This was the first time he had observed his mother so carefully and touched these hardworking hands so closely.
The backs of her hands were wrinkled, rough like cracked tree bark, and at the joints in her palms, layers of calluses had formed. The life lines filled her palms, devoid of luster, full of the wear and tear of years.
“Doctor, do you think… my mom can be saved?”
The man didn’t wait for Chen Cang to answer, sighing to himself and continuing as if he wasn’t really asking Chen Cang but rather himself.
“She has suffered her whole life, and just when she was about to enjoy a bit of peace, she got this disease. We are seven siblings; my dad passed away early, and it was all up to my mom to bring us up.”
“Just as each family member was getting better, setting up their own homes, this year my youngest brother and sister were set to get married, and then the old lady fell ill.”
“Actually, we understand that at her age, with both a heart attack and whatever you said about a rupture in her heart, surgery might not necessarily be successful.”
“But as her children, can we really just stand by and watch her die?”
“She farmed fifteen acres alone, putting my younger brother and sister through school. Now that everyone’s settled, she falls ill.”
“I just wanted her to see the youngest brother and sister get married, to fulfill her wishes.”
By the end, the robust man couldn’t help but sigh deeply.
His eyes were red, filled with tears.
It’s said that men don’t easily shed tears, but the debt of parental love is as heavy as a mountain.
“So, regardless of whether the rescue is successful, we must try. Spending money is fine; money can be earned back! But if a person is gone, they’re truly gone!”
“No matter what… Let’s do our best!”
Xiao Lin was moved by what he heard and couldn’t help saying, “Uncle, don’t worry. Dr. Chen is very skilled. With him involved, everything will be fine!”
Chen Cang nodded.
However, as they say, when you’re worried about something, it’s more likely to happen. There were no problems when driving on the country roads.
But as soon as they got on the highway, the ECG monitor’s beeping alarm sounded, startling both Chen Cang and Xiao Lin!
It had happened!
Chen Cang looked up and saw: blood pressure dropping sharply, heart rate increasing, breathing becoming more rapid!
Chen Cang’s face turned pale instantly, the inevitable had occurred and couldn’t be stopped!
“Xiao Lin, prepare amiodarone!”
Xiao Lin, remaining calm, began to get ready.
On the highway, driver Old Yang’s palms were sweaty!
He also sighed when he heard the man talk about his mother; who doesn’t have a mother? Everyone’s heart aches!
He too began to pray for this elderly woman.
He changed lanes to the side that was limited to 60 kilometers, steadied the direction of the car, and provided Chen Cang with a better environment to perform the rescue.
