50 years of smoking, suffering from a rare lung disease
68-year-old Mr. Shi began smoking when he was a teenager, has more than 50 years of smoking. At most, Mr. Shi can smoke 7 packs of cigarettes a day, all day long, a cigarette in his hand all day long. "I smoked for so many years, not still carry gas packets upstairs, what harm can there be?" In the family persuaded to smoke a few less, the old Shi often argued that.
3 years ago, Mr. Shi suddenly found himself often chest tightness, shortness of breath, and repeated coughing, coughing phlegm, climbing the stairs also began to pant, the body became very weak. The first step is to make sure that you have a good understanding of the situation, and that you have a good idea of what you are doing.
After the disease, every hospitalization doctor advised him not to smoke again, but Mr. Shi can not help, often and family "hide and seek" secretly smoke. The company's main goal is to provide the best possible service to its customers," he said, adding that the company has been working on a number of projects in the past few years. The doctor for Mr. Fang to do puncture laboratory tests, unexpectedly a needle down, wear out is as coal tar like lung tissue, covered with a layer of milk like white material.
Experts told him that if left untreated, the protein would continue to be deposited in the alveoli, and in the long run, every alveolus could be blocked, and the person could die of asphyxiation at any time.
Lung wash, washed out 20 bottles of "black water" and "milk"
In order to help Mr. Shi's lungs to reduce the burden, the experts decided to carry out a lung wash, through the lungs "bathing", the lungs in the "bath", the lungs in the "bath", the lungs in the "bath", the lungs in the "bath", the lungs in the "bath".
At 8:00 am, Mr. Shi was pushed into the lung lavage center of Chest Hospital. Under general anesthesia, Director Zhang Yingming inserted a "Y"-shaped double-lumen bronchial catheter into Mr. Shi's mouth, separating the right and left lungs: the right lung is supplied with oxygen by the respirator to maintain the body's gas exchange, and the left lung is connected to the lavage tube for cleaning.
The catheter was inserted into Mr. Shi's mouth.
After the catheter was inserted, the irrigation began. The reporter saw, in the operating table next to the 37 ℃ thermostat box, neatly placed a box to be irrigated liquid. Each wash back (one in, one out) takes 3 to 6 minutes. The first back and forth down, from the drainage tube out of the "lung water" is as milky as milk turbid. Take a closer look in the hand, in the bottle above, scattered suspended some flocculent float out of the rinse, and at the bottom of the bottle, the precipitation of a dense layer of white protein deposits. Washed to the 6th bottle, the white is gone, washed out as black as ink color. "This 'black water' contains a large amount of carbon dust and aluminum silicate, which is smoked out of smoking." Experts said.
The reporter saw, repeated irrigation for about 10 times, black water only gradually no, irrigation fluid became clear. Then, change to the right lung for cleaning. 10 back and forth, the whole 20 bottles of irrigation fluid. "Feeling their lungs of the two mountains were moved," after washing lungs, Mr. Shi saw filled 20 bottles of black and white lung wash water, said repeatedly, too disgusting, never smoke again.
Beware, the street washing lungs may "not wake up"
Zhang, director of the introduction of lung washing, although the treatment of silicosis, coal workers pneumoconiosis, cement pneumoconiosis, welding lungs, casting pneumoconiosis, as well as a number of lung diseases, but not everyone applies. Lung scaling, as a new and highly specialized medical technology, is a means of treating diseases rather than a healthcare technique. This kind of medical equipment, the operation of first aid measures are required to be quite "high standard" of lavage, but also not the street clinic can be carried out. "Simply for example, if the process of lung lavage, the water temperature of the lavage fluid 'does not meet the standard' or post-operative care measures are not in place, these seemingly small details, are very likely to make the patient 'wake up'!
