Tang Shun, 35, weighs more than 500 jin. In May of this year, this little fat brother who had difficulty breathing was sent to Shanghai Xinhua Hospital for emergency treatment with the help of 12 firefighters. This was the first time he went downstairs in more than 20 years. This matter aroused social concern.
Tang Shun, who successfully underwent "weight loss surgery" at Shanghai Sixth People's Hospital (Sixth Hospital), experienced life and death ten days after the operation. On August 28, he successfully pulled out the tracheal intubation and began to adapt to spontaneous breathing again.
The reporter learned that Tang Shun, who had been out of the ventilator after a week of treatment at Xinhua Hospital, was transferred to the Sixth Hospital for stomach reduction treatment. In the following three months, in the intensive care unit of the Sixth Hospital, doctors customized recipes for Tang Shun, adjusted his diet, and helped him exercise his cardiopulmonary function.
It is understood that Tang Shun has lost about 100 kg before and after the operation. Li Yingchuan, director of the Critical Care Medicine Department of the Sixth Hospital, said that at present, the most important thing for medical staff is not how many pounds can be reduced to help him, but to save his life and help him improve the immune function of the entire body.
