When the Doctor Uses A Hack-Chapter 1995 - 2001: Chen-Saint-Miracle-God’s Light-Hand of God-Cang!
Cardiopulmonary resuscitation!
The simplest, most important, and most crucial rescue method.
At this moment, it is happening.
And Chen Cang’s pressing speed is fast, each breath delivers an accurate ventilation volume to the child!
Jing Ran, standing aside, said: "Professor Chen, shall I do the mouth-to-mouth resuscitation while you do the compression?"
Chen Cang shook his head in refusal!
No one can be more precise than him!
Every time, Chen Cang’s pressing depth is an accurate 3.5 centimeters, which he measured to be one-third of the anterior-posterior chest wall of the child.
And each breath’s volume is just enough for ventilation.
Every single time!
Chen Cang begins over and over like a machine!
Time ticks by, second by second!
Three minutes...
Five minutes...
Ten minutes...
Almost everyone at the scene felt there was no hope.
But Chen Cang did not stop.
By then, the child’s parents had started to think of the harsh outcome.
Vergo sighed, thinking, in another 5 minutes, if there’s no chance...he would prepare to announce the conclusion to the family.
After all, children cannot be compared to adults.
Their cardiopulmonary functions are relatively weaker.
At 20 minutes, every television station commentator had sentenced this child to death.
This time, Chen Cang couldn’t achieve bringing back from the dead.
After all, he is not a god, he is just a doctor.
However, Chen Cang still did not give up.
Twenty minutes of cardiopulmonary compression, particularly using the two-finger method, is truly exhausting.
At this moment!
Vergo had already called the patient’s parents aside to start notifying them of the death.
Sweat was all over Chen Cang’s temples, even his fingers were somewhat trembling.
But he didn’t trust anyone else to take over!
Under the sensory glove, Chen Cang’s operation was incredibly skillful.
He felt there was still hope!
Even the television stations had switched off the broadcast of Chen Cang’s rescue video, after all, no one really believed that this could bring a miracle.
However, the expert review chair, Hecaxide, did not move away from the screen.
Usually, if a sudden death patient is resuscitated for more than 30 minutes without regaining heartbeat and respiration, it is widely accepted in the industry to pronounce the stopping of resuscitation.
This is something every doctor understands.
But, for some reason, Hecaxide always felt that Chen Cang could bring about a miracle.
A student nearby couldn’t help but ask: "Teacher...do you think there’s still hope?"
Hecaxide, for some reason, instinctively nodded.
The student was stunned for a moment: "Why? Theoretically speaking, there’s no chance left!"
Hecaxide frowned: "It’s not that there’s none, it’s miniscule, but medicine always creates miracles."
"For some reason...I always felt that Chen Cang could succeed in the rescue!"
But!
Hecaxide might have been wrong in this premonition.
An hour later, Chen Cang felt his fingers had already lost sensation.
Even using stamina potions and recovery agents, but this kind of enduring exercise, really drains one’s strength...and will.
At this moment, Hecaxide sighed, shook his head helplessly, and turned to leave the office.
Perhaps, the miracle will not descend!
After all, Chen Cang...is just a mortal!
And at this time, seeing Chen Cang still doing the rescue, still continuing compression, the fire officers and Old Ma beside him felt somewhat uncomfortable!
Seeing Chen Cang like this, they also felt uneasy.
At this moment, Chen Cang was drenched in sweat.
One hour of two-finger compression, he had given his all, even challenged the limit of human endurance.
Yet, the child was still not successfully resuscitated.
Vergo really wanted to persuade Chen Cang to stop, or at least let someone else take over.
But Chen Cang seemed entranced.
Again, again, and again!
High-quality chest compressions never stopped.
Chest compression!
Artificial respiration!
Chen Cang, like a machine, kept repeating, and repeating!
Still, Chen Cang continued.
Everyone wanted to persuade Chen Cang, but...seeing his determined and sincere look, everyone remained silent.
An hour and ten minutes...still no effect.
An hour and a half, the child was still in this state.
Two hours...
Chen Cang’s sweat had soaked through his clothes, having stood there for two hours, the ground was marked with sweat stains.
But he had not even changed his posture.
Persisted for two hours!
As of now, the longest chest compression is perhaps two hours?
Two hours!
Chen Cang performed 20,000 chest compressions.
Each and every one was 3.5 centimeters deep.
The television returned, again showing Chen Cang, who was still compressing.
This time, no one was commenting.
Looking at Chen Cang’s exhausted appearance, everyone was deeply moved, wanting to say: "Professor Chen, please stop!"
"You’ve done your best!"
Even the child’s parents had already given up.
Two hours later, almost everyone gave up on this child.
Except for Chen Cang!
He was still persisting!
Time, kept moving forward!
Two hours later, even Chen Cang noticed that his strength couldn’t keep up anymore.
But he really didn’t want to give up; he felt the child still could be saved!
At this moment!
The screen cut to an interview with Hecaxide.
"Professor Hecaxide, do you think this child can be saved with CPR? Is Professor Chen making a futile effort?"
Hecaxide took a deep breath and shook his head saying: "Whether a cardiac arrest patient can be saved depends on two aspects:
One is the quality of CPR, meaning how standard and regulated is the CPR operation, the longer the compression, the younger the child, the harder it is!
Secondly, the duration of cardiac arrest, that is, the time from when the patient experienced sudden death to the start of CPR; the longer the arrest time, the lower the success rate."
"Actually, CPR is essentially simulating the patient’s own breathing and heartbeat with external force, the more standard it is, the more it can be restored!
So far, the longest recorded time in the world is two hours."
He did not elaborate further.
But everyone knew what it meant.
Chen Cang had been at it for three hours!
30,000 chest compressions!
Thousands of artificial breaths!
When everyone thought Chen Cang was being foolish.
Suddenly!
The sound of beeping arose!
Deng Ming suddenly exclaimed: "There’s a heartbeat! Really, there is!"
Immediately!
The entire room erupted!
Everyone stared at the monitor.
At that moment, Chen Cang suddenly collapsed to the floor!
After more than three hours of the two-finger method, regular, precise, had completely exhausted Chen Cang’s strength.
He just felt a bit of cerebral hypoxia, and fainted to the ground.
Meanwhile, the child’s condition gradually recovered!
Heartbeat restored!
Breathing restored!
Blood oxygen saturation was also recovering!
Hecaxide’s student hurriedly called him back, excitedly saying: "Teacher! Teacher, Professor Chen succeeded!"
Hecaxide’s expression changed!
At this time, television stations worldwide broadcasting the global emergency rescue skills competition were all broadcasting this scene!
The child was saved!
And the hero, Chen Cang, felt dizzy, his ears muted, fainting from hypoglycemia.
At this moment!
The whole country celebrated!
The world cheered for it!
At this moment!
Chen Cang, for you!
The miracle finally happened.
Seeing this scene, countless people cried tears of joy.
Calling out Chen Cang’s name aloud.
Emotional tears flowed uncontrollably.
Many experts watching this scene sighed, "Professor Chen, you should change your name!"
"What’s with Chen Cang!"
You should be called:
Chen-The-Saint-Miracle-The-God’s-Light-The-Hand-of-God-Cang!
...
ps: The longest CPR time held should be in China.
The retired doctor Jia Dacheng from Beijing Emergency Center once wrote "Don’t Give Up Easily! Cardiac Arrest Usually Lasts At Least 30 Minutes" citing examples: A sudden death patient in Nanjing was resuscitated for two hours and ultimately survived.
Another case, acute myocardial infarction with pulmonary embolism, where the heart stopped for 3 hours, was ultimately saved by the doctors at Anzhen Hospital in Beijing after 3 hours of CPR and two rounds of thrombolysis.
Abroad, there might not be an example of two-hour external chest compressions.
So, we should thank our doctors.
By the way, there’s good news tomorrow, hahahahaha...
