Baby K was admitted to the emergency room at a hospital in Vinh City with very complicated soft tissue injuries on his right wrist, radial artery damage, radial nerve sheath tear, dislocation of the distal end of the radius and the lower radioulnar joint. The wound had lost skin, exposed bone on the ulnar side of the wrist, and multiple soft tissue injuries on the right hand and chest.

After receiving the patient, Doctor CKI Vuong Quoc Viet (the doctor who directly treated patient K) quickly treated the wound, cleaned the wound, repositioned the bones and the lower radioulnar joint, sutured the radial nerve sheath, treated the radial artery, and placed a plaster cast on the child's right forearm. Currently, the patient's condition is stable, and the child can move his fingers.

Doctor Vuong Quoc Viet recommends: In cases where children suffer multiple injuries due to exploding battery-operated toys, parents need to provide first aid on the spot, apply pressure to stop the bleeding, and then take the child to the nearest medical facility. Because if not treated promptly, the wound will be at risk of infection and necrosis./.
