At this mont, Lou Jiangya was seen questioning.
"Okay, okay, okay."
Liao Xiaoxiang imdiately took out her phone.
And quickly started to review.
"This... so this patient had cardiac arrest for fifteen to twenty minutes before treatnt, Teacher Zhang has been doing CPR for ten minutes!"
Soon.
Lou Jiangya's pupils shook.
The patient having cardiac arrest for fifteen to twenty minutes implies that there might be no hope.
But this teacher actually perford CPR for ten minutes.
No wonder he's drenched in sweat.
The most crucial part is that his CPR technique is so standard!
My god, where did this expert co from?
Peking Union dical College Hospital?
Zhang Lingchuan, standing nearby, also noticed Lou Jiangya's expression.
I must say, the dical staff of Fudan Huashan Hospital's ergency departnt are indeed highly skilled.
Their judgnt is basically accurate.
[System precision rescan complete.]
[Patient na: Xiang Xiaobai.]
[Patient gender: Female.]
[Patient age: 26 years old.]
[Patient status: Cardiac arrest for seventeen minutes, death countdown remaining 2 seconds.]
[Patient diagnosis: Sudden death due to myocardial infarction and malignant arrhythmia.]
[System prompt: The current patient is in critical danger. The host has triggered an ergency task. Please imdiately use high-quality CPR to perform cardiopulmonary resuscitation. Successfully rescuing the patient will earn an ergency gift package.]
This was the result he just obtained from the second scan.
Cardiac arrest for seventeen minutes.
To be honest.
After 4 to 5 minutes of cardiac arrest, brain cells start to die, and it's irreversible cell death.
Typically, providing effective treatnt within 4 to 6 minutes gives around 40%-50% chance that the patient may wake up.
As ti passes, with each passing minute, the mortality rate increases by 10%, and the survival rate decreases by 10%. After 10 minutes, the mortality rate is almost 100%.
Why is it almost?
Humans are peculiar beings.
There have been cases where people have been successfully resuscitated after 10 to 20 minutes of cardiac arrest and even miraculously recovered.
But rescuing after more than 10 minutes becos incredibly difficult.
Although providing effective CPR after cardiac arrest can maintain effective circulation in the body, Zhang Lingchuan was now clearly aware.
His Perfect-level CPR has never failed, but today the countdown continued.
The system showed 2 seconds during previous scanning, now it's counting down to 1 second.
He didn't even know when it would hit zero. Once it hits zero, it ans the resuscitation has failed.
But he couldn't stop now.
Because pressing on might offer a glimr of hope.
But if he stopped, the person would definitely die!
"Hmm, hmm ah... Anyway, Teacher Zhang has been doing CPR here for quite a long ti."
Seeing Dr. Lou so shocked.
Liao Xiaoxiang was full of question marks.
Isn't it just ten minutes of CPR?
Why so excited? Like he's seen a ghost?
"Sigh... You're her assistant, right? First inform the family, we'll try another twenty minutes of standard CPR on site later, but don't get your hopes up too high. Because she has no vital signs at this mont. Teacher Zhang, if you're tired, we can take over, although we might not be as good as you, we are professionals."
At this mont, Lou Jiangya said helplessly.
In fact, this basically signifies declaring death, because the cardiac arrest ti has been too long, still without any cardiac response, and clinically, even if resuscitated, many cases end in a vegetative state.
That's why she used the term "routine."
And why she offered to take over.
After all, a perfectly executed ten-minute CPR still yielded no response. With their CPR, it would likely yield even less response.
As for defibrillation, she could only say TV shows are deceiving.
A flat line basically doesn't respond to defibrillation.
Defibrillation is used for malignant arrhythmias like ventricular fibrillation.
Now that the heart has stopped, there's no chance for defibrillation.
Of course, if you don't believe it, you could try the defibrillator a couple of tis.
"Thud—"
Hearing the notification to inform the family and not to hope too much, Liao Xiaoxiang, with her heartstrings pulled taut, completely broke down, collapsing directly on the ground.
"It's okay, I can still continue, let's test the limits for now."
Zhang Lingchuan turned his head to say to Lou Jiangya at this mont.
As long as he kept pressing, the countdown remained at one second, but if they switched, without Perfect-level CPR, she would basically be dead.
So, although he wanted to rest, he dared not because he couldn't gamble.
"Alright then, Teacher Zhang, don't push yourself too hard. Take care of your health; while saving lives is important as a dical worker, it's also crucial to protect your own body."
Lou Jiangya nodded.
Any ergency personnel would know what doing ten minutes of CPR ans, let alone ten minutes of top-quality CPR worthy of admiration.
Because it is extrely physically exhausting.
Thus, in room 1818, Zhang Lingchuan continued CPR, while Lou Jiangya and the others used a simple resuscitator, that blue gas cylinder, to provide artificial ventilation.
As for whether the patient could be saved.
Lou Jiangya felt sowhat pessimistic inside.
After Teacher Zhang gets tired, if they each perform another round of CPR, they'd probably be ready to declare death.
Although the patient is young and they wish to retain her, they've truly tried everything, and it might end in failure and regret.
anwhile, on the other side.
At Beijing Tsinghua Changgeng Hospital.
"It's coming out, it's coming out."
"Phew—, truly a long tapeworm."
There was no failure or regret here; the dical and nursing staff, tense and worried monts ago, all breathed a sigh of relief.
