On March 16, after 13 days of treatment, the 104-year-old grandmother Wang Daquan went from Optics Valley Hospital of Wuhan Third Hospital District discharged.

  Centenary of New Coronary Pneumonia admitted to hospital

  Elder Wang Daquan was born on February 16, 1917. On March 3, Grandma Wang was transferred to the Optics Valley Campus of Wuhan Third Hospital due to new coronary pneumonia. At admission, Fu Shouzhi, director of the Department of Critical Care Medicine, comprehensively evaluated Grandma Wang ’s physical condition.

  In addition to new coronary pneumonia, 10 basic diseases have been diagnosed, including bilateral pleural effusion, coronary atherosclerotic heart disease, chronic heart failure, heart failure 2 degrees, high-grade hypertension at high risk, chronic bronchitis, chronic Gastritis, hypoproteinemia, cognitive impairment, cervical spondylosis, hearing loss, etc.

  "Senior and critically ill elderly people, because there are many basic diseases, it is very difficult to treat." For this reason, Director Fu Shouzhi arranged for Grandma Wang to be admitted to the critically ill area for treatment and special care, asking the medical staff: "Do not give up For each life, implement personalized treatment with one person and one policy. "

  In order to ensure the absolute safety of the elderly, a number of tips: "Follow!" Are posted next to the bed of the elderly, and special cautions such as "preventing aspiration, pressure ulcers, and falling into the bed" are also specially reminded.

  Grandma Wang's cardiac dysfunction due to age, even if the amount of fluid infused and pumped daily is small, she will resist. The nurse carefully implanted it into the external jugular vein, and a nurse was required to take care of her every day when she was intravenously infused and pumped.

  Found that the old man likes roses, the medical nurse uses red roses to make the old man happy

  "Grandma Wang's mental state was very poor when she was first admitted to the hospital, and she was very resistant to all medical treatments. The nurse gave her an injection, she would scream and struggle, and even scratch the nurse with her nails." Director Fu Shouzhi contacted the grandson of the elderly.

  The nurses came up with a way to attract her attention and one person to operate quickly during injections. Sometimes they used some brightly colored gadgets and sometimes they put on a piece of music. Later, they found that the old man liked roses, so when the old man was unwilling to cooperate, he often used red roses to make her happy.

  Eating is also a problem for elderly people. The hospital provides unified lunch for patients with new coronary pneumonia, but for Grandma Wang, it is a little hard. Nutritional support is also a very important part of the rehabilitation of patients with new coronary pneumonia. It is not enough to rely on the infusion of nutrients. In order to protect the nutrition and water supply of Grandma Wang, doctors and nurses in the critically ill area use a rice cooker in the medical rest area to give Grandma Wang opened a small stove, egg custard, millet porridge, milk rice noodles, yoghurt fruit, three times a day, was sent to the ward by the successor medical care.

  "Nutrition security is an important part of treatment," said Fu Shouzhi, "not only can improve immunity, but also make grandma feel happy and cooperate with medical staff." Fu Shouzhi recalled that when she first arrived in the ward, Grandma Wang "Temperament", does not cooperate with the treatment, sometimes the medical staff coaxes her favorite food.

  On March 6, Grandma Wang suddenly refused to eat, and she did not drink nutrient solution or milk. Seeing that the urine volume is less than 1000ml, it is easy to cause acute renal failure, and the medical staff are very anxious!

  In a hurry, Fu Shouzhi bought a bouquet of roses and fed the grandmother for dinner with the mixed meal prepared by the doctor and nurse. Grandma was very happy to see the rose, and she couldn't put it down in her hand, and ate two or two at a time.

  Weigh diapers every day to monitor the urine output of the elderly, and change up to 15 a day

  In addition to personalized treatment and nutrition, medical staff must also closely measure the vital signs and changes in the elderly's condition every day, and record body temperature, pulse, breathing, blood pressure, and oxygen saturation every hour. Especially the volume into the body and the amount of excretion are accurate to the hour. The designated doctors and nurses in each class closely monitor the infusion volume, diet, sweat, sputum, and urine volume of the elderly.

  Grandma Wang has limited mobility, and the nurse puts adult diapers on her grandma to avoid getting the sheets wet and catching cold. In order to accurately calculate the urine output, the nurses used the method of weighing diapers to assess Grandma Wang ’s urine output. Because the grandmother's intelligence decreased, she was very repulsive to diapers and tried to tear them. The nurses did not tire of it. When the grandmother broke one, the nurses changed one, and the number was changed up to 15 a day.

  Fu Shouzhi observed that the old man desperately resisted the diaper in this way, which was very exhausting. "The old man doesn't like the restraint of the diaper. We changed the diaper to a diaper and rolled it around to make a small boat. This makes it convenient to measure urine. Grandma doesn't pull it anymore. "

  On March 16, after 13 days of treatment, Grandma Wang Daquan was discharged from the Optics Valley Campus of Wuhan Third Hospital. After presenting a bouquet of red roses, Fu Shouzhi put on new socks for the elderly, wishing her a return to normal life.

  "The old man likes the red rose that the doctor gave when he was discharged from the hospital. Although the petals have dried up, they are still reluctant to lose." The reporter said on the 27th that the old man and grandson were connected. The old man is in a good state of mind and has three meals a day.
