Alpine disease complicated with pulmonary edema almost died. PAC saved her life.

Last March, Miss Ji climbed the Qilai Mountain at an altitude of more than 3,600 meters. At one time, she was dizzy, had difficulty breathing and could not even walk. Comrade Zhan urgently contacted the doctor and judged that she was suffering from altitude sickness complicated with pulmonary edema. If not treated in time, she may die within 12 hours. Under the remote guidance of Wang Shihao, Jan Qiao Yu injected the patient with a life-saving needle and used a portable compression bag (PAC), and her symptoms were immediately improved. Miss Ji was lucky to get her life back. Miss Ji recalled that she was dizzy, nauseous and confused. Suddenly, there was fog in the mountains, and she couldn't go down. Fortunately, teammate Zhan, deputy secretary-general of Taiwan Province Field Emergency Rescue Association, immediately treated her and carried her down the mountain after her symptoms eased. No, then it was really unimaginable, and she was still worried. Thanks to PAC, she was lucky to be born. Wang Shihao, vice president of Taiwan Province Wild Emergency Medical Association, pointed out that 1 climber has altitude sickness on average in China, and 1% of them may be complicated with altitude cerebral edema or pulmonary edema; Without treatment, the mortality rate within 12 hours is as high as 100%. "Lowering the altitude is the most effective way to treat mountain sickness. Wang Shihao stressed that if the weather conditions are bad and rescue helicopters can't arrive, it will take at least two days to descend from the mountain at an altitude of more than 3,000 meters. Using PAC first aid equipment, the pressure in the bag can be increased by two PSI within 5 to 65,438+00 minutes, so that the patient can reduce the altitude by 65,438+0,500 meters to 65,438+0,800 meters, and altitude sickness can be relieved immediately. In order to put an end to the tragic death of mountain sickness, Taiwan Province Field Emergency Rescue Association launched a fund-raising activity. With enthusiastic donations from all walks of life, we raised 8 million yuan to buy 65,438+000 PACs. At present, applications from mountain houses, fire brigades and civil rescue teams are accepted.
