Gastric lavage involves inserting a gastric tube through the patient’s nasal or oral cavity, passing through the esophagus to the stomach, then injecting and suctioning lavage fluid to eliminate toxins.
Before gastric lavage, the patient’s vital signs need to be checked. If there is hypoxia, cessation of breathing, or cardiac arrest, cardiopulmonary resuscitation should be perford first, followed by gastric lavage.
Thus, Nianyang quickly crouched beside Teacher Bai, placing the heels of her palms overlapped, and using the hip joint as a fulcrum, rhythmically perford chest compressions on Teacher Bai for CPR.
The surroundings were very quiet, and everyone stared at Nianyang, afraid to make a sound and disturb her.
The girl crouched in a backlit area, her expression stern, her movents swift, and her calm deanor resembled a statue of an Immortal, invoking a sense of reverence.
She can do it!
At this mont, the sa three words appeared in all the villagers’ minds.
The heart resuscitation actions continued for about seven to eight minutes, and Nianyang felt the previously halted heartbeat of Teacher Bai weakly resu.
This is the mont!
She stopped her actions and laid out the gastric lavage tools one by one.
Gastric tube, funnel, mouth opener, tongue forceps, gauze, treatnt towel, rubber ball;
All that’s lacking is lavage fluid, which can be substituted with warm water or saline.
"Villagers, please fetch a few buckets of warm water, not too hot!"
Nianyang shouted, and the enthusiastic villagers promptly agreed and went to fetch water.
Nianyang adjusted Teacher Bai’s slumped body upright, tilted his head, and laid treatnt towels under his neck and shoulder and beneath his chin and chest.
Usually, the gastric tube is inserted through the patient’s nostril, but for the unconscious and uncooperative Teacher Bai, this operation would be problematic.
Thus, Nianyang had to use the mouth opener to open Teacher Bai’s mouth, gently pull out his tongue with the tongue forceps, and slowly insert the tube into the stomach.
During this process, Nianyang activated her X-ray vision skill.
As a result, Teacher Bai appeared transparent in her eyes.
She could clearly see all of Teacher Bai’s organs.
She silently visualized the organ of the stomach in her mind, so what was presented before her was the entire stomach of Teacher Bai.
"Here it cos, here it cos, the water is here!"
The villagers carefully placed a few buckets of water beside Nianyang, watching her gradually insert the long gastric tube into Teacher Bai’s body.
Everyone’s hearts were raised high at that instant, thinking what kind of Immortal treatnt is this, aren’t they afraid of damaging Teacher Bai’s internal organs?!
The villagers were not familiar with Nianyang’s treatnt thod, but Doctor Tian, experienced in dicine for many years, understood very clearly.
He instantly recognized that the tools Nianyang brought out were professional gastric lavage tools used in dical clinics.
He didn’t have the mind to wonder where a rural girl like Nianyang got gastric lavage tools.
All he could think about was how she actually knew how to perform gastric lavage and could even operate it?
No wonder she was so confident when she said her ho redy wouldn’t work. He thought it was just Nianyang showing off, but it turned out she genuinely had major skills!
★
Finally.
The tube entered Teacher Bai’s stomach.
Nianyang gently exhaled.
"Mayor, help elevate the funnel towards Teacher Bai’s mouth."
Nianyang’s two hands were full, so she quickly asked the stunned Zhang Jianwen beside her to help.
"Oh, okay, okay."
Zhang Jianjun hurriedly complied.
Nianyang freed her right hand and poured the warm water from the wooden barrel into the funnel, acting as the lavage fluid.
This operation highly tests endurance because it requires repeatedly introducing and extracting liquids continually. Even a slight deviation could cause the lavage fluid to spill into other organs.
Each ti, about 500ml of lavage fluid is injected.
When the liquid in the funnel is almost exhausted, the funnel is inverted to extract it.
During the process, one needs to squeeze the rubber ball, using siphon action to slowly draw out the toxin-laden fluid from Teacher Bai’s stomach.
