China News Service, Hangzhou, February 9th (Qian Chenfei) On the 9th, the reporter learned from the Second Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine (hereinafter referred to as the Second Hospital of Zhejiang University) that Doudou (pseudonym), a boy who was amputated by firecrackers in Jiangxi Province, is currently in condition Relatively stable, will undergo the fifth surgery.
Recently, a piece of news touched people's hearts - on January 21, the 30th day of the Lunar New Year, Doudou was injured by a firecracker thrown by a neighbor, causing her right arm to be amputated.
After emergency treatment by the local hospital in Shangrao, Jiangxi Province, Doudou was transferred to the Second Hospital of Zhejiang University for treatment on January 23.
On the 9th, Hu Xinlei, the doctor in charge of Doudou and deputy chief physician of the Department of Orthopedics at the Second Hospital of Zhejiang University, told reporters that Doudou was injured by an explosion. After being admitted to the hospital, it was found that there were still wounds on the blast wounds, and the wounds were heavily polluted.
"At present, the patient has undergone 4 operations, and the wound is shrinking continuously. The current situation is relatively stable. He can consider leaving the hospital after debridement in the near future." Hu Xinlei said that the treatment of blast injuries is relatively difficult, and the damage to the tissue penetrates relatively deeply. The current treatment is mainly for the treatment of wounds. Firecracker residues will still remain in Doudou's body, and it may take 2 to 3 years to completely excrete them.
Hu Xinlei introduced that if you want to save your limbs when you encounter an explosion injury, you have a time window of 6 to 8 hours, that is, the interval from the occurrence of the injury to the treatment is 6 to 8 hours, especially if the time is shorter than 6 hours, the possibility of limb salvage will be bigger.
It is understood that after Doudou is discharged from the hospital and recovers for a period of time, the artificial limb will be installed.
Considering that the child is still in the growing period, the hospital suggested trying to choose a prosthetic with good shape and high mobility to help Doudou adapt better.
