What is the purpose of the cotton that is shoved up the patient's nose after they die in The Chinese Doctor?

The movie "Chinese Doctors" turned out to be a detail that subverted my perceptions, which I had never seen in a movie before. I went back to the source material and it turns out that's really how hospitals do it.

Death of the patient, through the cotton ball to block the mouth, ears and nostrils, in order to prevent the liquid out of the dirty, one of the family to see the heart will be uncomfortable, and the second is also a respect for the dead it. In addition, some other holes, such as venous puncture holes, arterial puncture holes, etc., often still bleed, but also to sew up, or out of a pool of blood is not good. Through this little detail, you can see that there are professional icu doctors keeping an eye on this movie.

The body's sphincter muscle loses its function after a person passes away, and in order to stop the continued leakage of metabolites from the body it has to be plugged

especially as a patient who passed away from such an infectious disease, which in itself is a source of contamination, the nostrils of the deceased have to be plugged. Looks like the brain has added a little more knowledge to its repertoire.

By being able to recreate this detail as it is, "China Doctor" seems to have really put in the work, which is clearly different from the rest of the genre. And that's just part of it. Details like these that you don't see in other movies abound in the film, such as Zhu Yawen's Tao Jun taking cell phone footage for evidence at the time of the donation of the body, which is not found in any other film of the same genre.

The film also describes intubation and ECMO treatment in detail

Everyone thinks that as long as a family member signs and approves it, it's fine. In fact, there are strict procedures and regulations regarding the donation of human remains, and video forensics is also a very important part of the process. In the treatment of patients with new crowns, the film also describes intubation and ECMO treatment in detail, which is the first time in the movie, especially ECMO, which may be unheard of by the audience before.

Allward, a senior adviser to the WHO director-general in 2020, said at the launch, "If I get infected, I want to be treated in China." Why would he say that? It's because of ECMO. because when he was on a study tour, he found that one hospital in China had 5 ECMOs, compared to 5 in all of Europe combined, and realize that the device costs $70,000 just to turn on.

That's why President Zhang held a meeting to discuss the use of ECMO

ECMO is no joke. But such expensive equipment has been mentioned and used several times in the movie, so it is evident that in the new crown treatment, the country has really put in a lot of effort, and has really done its best to put life in the first place.

"Chinese doctors" can be medical workers of benevolence and professionalism well blended together, through a variety of details highly restore the real scene at that time, have to say that it is a great effort. As Huashan Hospital of Fudan University affiliated Huashan infection director Zhang Wenhong has seen the movie said, "It captures the essence of the doctor, and I stuck around for more than 2 hours basically without finding any bugs! "

With even the pros willing to praise the film's professionalism, "Chinese Doctors" can truly be considered a landmark work.
