Nghe An Tuberculosis and Lung Hospital: Dedicated to the sick

(Baonghean.vn) - During the joyful days of Spring and Tet, the Tuberculosis and Lung Hospital received many patients for treatment, including very serious cases that were promptly treated by the hospital's doctors, bringing life to the patients.

On February 23, in the cold night, the staff of Nghe An Tuberculosis and Lung Hospital received and treated many patients, the beds in the Emergency Resuscitation Department were full... In the department, there were many patients coughing up blood, including patient Nguyen Dang Chung, 34 years old from Vinh City, a very serious case.



Emergency blood transfusion for patients.

The patient's family said: At home, patient Chung coughed up about 100 ml of fresh blood, and was taken to the emergency room by his family at 11:30 p.m. The emergency room shift that day included Dr. Minh, Dr. Luu, nurse Ha, and nurse Dung. It was determined that this was a very serious case, because he was a patient undergoing treatment for pulmonary tuberculosis in the 8th month of regimen 2. The patient was admitted to the Emergency Resuscitation Department in a very critical condition. On February 23 and 24, 2013, the patient was treated with hemostasis regimens (deep sleep coagulation), but whenever he was awake and drowsy, he coughed up a lot of blood. It is estimated that in 3 days, the patient lost about 1200 ml of blood, and the patient was in a state of severe blood loss. In that situation, the hospital's leaders promptly directed the on-duty teams to take care of the patient. Day and night, doctors and nurses are always on duty with patients. The shifts are very difficult because there are many serious cases and many patients.

With the determination to devote all their heart to the patient, on the morning of February 25, the hospital leaders held a hospital-wide consultation on the case of patient Chung and determined that emergency blood transfusion was needed to save the patient. In the condition that the hospital did not have blood on site, transferring to a higher level would be very dangerous to the patient's life, immediately, comrade Dau Minh Quang - Director of the hospital agreed on a plan in the consultation to send a team of professional staff led by Dr. Nam - Deputy Director to the Provincial General Hospital to request to receive emergency blood.

Thanks to the care and timely blood transfusion, the critically ill patient Nguyen Dang Chung has been gradually recovering his health. The family of patient Chung is very touched by the motherly hearts of the doctors here - a special hospital with extremely difficult and arduous working conditions, but the doctors here have not been deterred, still shining with medical ethics, always devoted to the patients, just as Uncle Ho taught, each medical staff must be truly both red and professional, "a good doctor must be like a mother"./.
