Knowledgeable about feeding medicines to babies
Improper drug feeding leads to tragedy
In spring and summer, the climate is fickle, and there are many patients. Dr. Wang had been busy for a while, and finally had a chance to sit down and rest. However, as soon as he took off his glasses, he heard eager and panic footsteps outside. Looking up, I saw a middle-aged man running over with a baby under one year old in his arms. "Quick, quick! Quickly save my child!" The child's face was blue and purple, his lips were black, and his teeth were clenched. When Dr. Wang listened to it with a stethoscope, his heart stopped and his breathing stopped. In order to win the hope of 100%, Dr. Wang gave the child chest compressions while ordering the nurses to give oxygen and inject breathing stimulants. Unfortunately, it was all too late. It turned out that the child went to the hospital for fever and cough a few days ago. In addition to the injection, the doctor also prescribed cough medicine for him. However, he always refused to take medicine, so grandma had to pick up the child, pinched his nose with one hand, and stuffed the tablet into the child's mouth with the other. When the grandmother released her hand from pinching the child's nose, the child's throat made a "gumbling" sound, and the uncrushed pills fell into the child's airway, blocking the trachea, and breathing suddenly stopped. Due to the lack of oxygen, the whites of the child's eyes turned up and his face was blue. The grandmother hurriedly called out, the child's father picked him up immediately after hearing this, and went straight to the hospital...Pinch nose to feed Dangerous medicines
It is very dangerous to pinch the nose of infants and young children to feed medicines. Because there are two passages at the lower end of the pharynx - the esophagus and the trachea. The opening above the windpipe has a piece of "epiglottic cartilage" that opens when breathing; when eating and swallowing, the epiglottis closes, preventing food from entering the windpipe. When the child is crying, the epiglottis cartilage will be dyskinetic. If the medicine is given at this time, it is easier for the medicine to enter the trachea. When you hold the child's nose and let it go when swallowing the medicine, the child will breathe instinctively, the epiglottis will open, and the medicine will more easily enter the trachea. After the foreign body enters the trachea, it can cause coughing or inflammation of the bronchi and lungs, or obstruct the airway and cause suffocation. Therefore, as a parent, it is best not to give medicine when the child is crying, and it is absolutely not advisable to hold the child's nose to give medicine.There are many ways of feeding medicines in children
Because of the weak constitution of infants and young children, illness is inevitable. When feeding medicine to infants and young children, it is best for parents to know the relevant knowledge and master the correct feeding method. The best way to give medicine to a newborn is to put the medicine (or powder in sugar water) into a bottle and let the baby take the medicine as if it were breastfeeding. If it is a small amount of powder, it can be poured directly into the mouth of the child, and then taken with a little sugar water. Before feeding the medicine, you can also feed a few mouthfuls of milk first, then feed some medicine, and do this repeatedly until the medicine is finished. Then pat the child upright on the back to prevent vomiting. However, it should be noted that breastfeeding should not be done before feeding the medicine, so as to prevent the child from refusing to take the medicine after being full. You can also grind the pills and tablets into powder, make a thin paste with sugar water, hold the child in your arms, in a semi-recumbent shape, hold the child's head with the left hand, take the medicine with the right hand spoon and slowly feed it, wait for it. After the child swallows the medicine, continue feeding. Do not mix medicine and milk to feed, because the combination of the two may cause coagulation, which will reduce the efficacy of the medicine. Since many medicines are bitter in taste, when children refuse to take medicine, the medicine can be injected into the back of the cheek and between the molars through a hose to avoid contact between the medicine and the tongue surface, which can reduce the bitterness. It can also cool the medicinal liquid to reduce the medicinal smell.Parents learn suffocation first aid
Due to physiological reasons, foreign objects entering the trachea by mistake are more common in children. If you can master some first aid techniques, you may be able to save the child's life, and the above tragedy will not happen. After discovering that the child's airway is blocked, the child should be quickly placed face down, straddle the rescuer's left forearm, hold the child's chin (chin) with the fingers of the left hand, and slap the middle of the back with the right hand 4 times. Then turn the child to lie down, and the rescuer uses two fingers to slam the child's two nipples and the midline at the junction of a horizontal finger four times. If it doesn't work, you can repeat the above actions, repeatedly slapping the child's back and chest. This method does not require any equipment and is feasible with bare hands. It is one of the reliable methods for family self-help before hospitalization.(责任编辑:Leisure vacation)
