2020-02-13T11:52:55.731Z


The "Wuhan pneumonia" epidemic in Hong Kong has continued to spread. To date, 51 confirmed cases have been distributed in 8 public hospitals in Hong Kong. Each hospital has a "Dirty Team" dedicated to taking care of confirmed or suspected cases. The risk is higher than other medical staff. The Prince of Wales Hospital, which was already a "pioneer" in SARS in 2003, was one of them, but it did not have a "life and death visa" like other hospitals. Its internal medicine department decided to be voluntarily recruited by senior doctors. I hope that I can grasp how to fight the epidemic as soon as possible before letting young doctors join. These more senior doctors are also part-time nurses, part-time blood draws and patient care, hoping to save already tight protection equipment.

The "Wuhan pneumonia" epidemic in Hong Kong has continued to spread. To date, 51 confirmed cases have been distributed in 8 public hospitals in Hong Kong. Each hospital has a "Dirty Team" dedicated to taking care of confirmed or suspected cases. The risk is higher than other medical staff.

The Prince of Wales Hospital, which was already a "pioneer" in SARS in 2003, was one of them, but it did not have a "life and death visa" like other hospitals. Its internal medicine department decided to be voluntarily recruited by senior doctors. I hope that I can grasp how to fight the epidemic as soon as possible before letting young doctors join. These more senior doctors are also part-time nurses, part-time blood draws and patient care, hoping to save already tight protection equipment.

No family doctor volunteered to go to the "battlefield" first

The eight medical staff of the "Dirty Team" of Prince of Wales Hospital all joined voluntarily. The senior doctor of the internal medicine department first went to the battlefield. Physician Wu Jiaqing said in an interview with the media that because he had not established a family room, the burden was relatively small. Dr. Wu volunteered to participate. "While meeting a colleague, there may not be any good children. If you want to join the dirty team, it will put pressure on the people in the housing company. If you are worried and want to move out, you may be able to meet the children. I do n’t have a house for the time being. If you move out, it will be easier to handle. ”

Means that nurse work is more dangerous than doctor

He Xingyi, a physician at the hospital, even said that doctors are no longer the most dangerous group. She said: "Nurses first take care of patients most closely, and even do more dangerous tasks than doctors ... A team is going to do one thing. . "

Meals for the Provincial Resource Doctor

Zhou Qiming, head of the Department of Internal Medicine and Pharmacotherapy of Weiyuan Hospital, revealed that in order to reduce the amount of protective equipment, some doctors would rather do the work that should be performed by medical staff, which greatly moved him. Zhou said, "Quan wanted to protect his home with protective clothing and protective clothing, and many people called for him to take care of patients. There were many interns, blood sampling staff, doing blood drawing, injections, and beans ( Intravenous infusion), but I really want to make the most of the tight resources, so I did the sunbathing myself, and even I saw a doctor who would hand-buried meals to the patient. "

In addition, Wei Hospital currently uses 3 medical wards to receive suspected or confirmed cases, each of which can accommodate about 16 to 18 patients. These wards are negative pressure isolation wards. Re-enter the ward from time to time, the dirty air in the ward will not flow out, and the air in the room will be discharged out of the street after filtering.
