The children "grew up" overnight
Zhang Ying, deputy chief physician of the Department of Pediatrics at the General Hospital of Tianjin Medical University, rushed to Haihe Hospital on January 8 and threw herself into this sudden battle.
"Tianjin has not treated children infected with the Omiljung virus before, not to mention the large number of people this time." Zhang Ying said, "What is more worrying is that during the treatment process, will the children cry and not cooperate? Can they leave their parents? ”
What Zhang Ying did not expect was that the children were very sensible.
"The children seem to have grown up overnight, far stronger than I thought." Zhang Ying said that among the children currently being treated, the youngest is only 5 years old, and the oldest is only 12 years old, but the children cooperate very well.
Li Xinmin, director of the Department of Pediatrics at the First Affiliated Hospital of Tianjin University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, who entered the "red zone" on January 10, also has the same feeling, "The children are too cooperative, too cute."
"The doctors and nurses were wearing protective suits, and the children couldn't see our faces clearly, but they were all doing very well. I told the children that Chinese medicine is more bitter, but can it help you cure the disease and make your body better, and promise me to work hard together? The kids raised their little fists with me and cheered! Li Xinmin said happily.
In addition to maintaining communication between medical staff and parents, the hospital also specially arranged for children to have more video calls with parents, so that parents can understand the situation of their children at the first time.

Mild and asymptomatic children are more numerous
After the Omicron raid on Tianjin, Zhang Boli, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, has been busy studying the strategy of child treatment and has conducted two expert consultations. "Children's treatment is our current focus, we sent 3 chief physicians of TCM pediatrics to Tianjin Designated Hospital, and worked side by side with Western medicine pediatricians to implement one person, one policy for child patients, hoping that they will be cured as soon as possible."
The first children to enter Haihe Hospital have been treated for 6 days. At present, there are 37 children in Zhang Ying's ward. The initial clinical symptoms of children are mainly nasal congestion, runny nose, cough, sore throat, and some have fever symptoms, but high fever is rare.
"The children infected in this round of the epidemic are more mild and asymptomatic, and the ordinary type is very rare, and there are no very serious symptoms. Currently, there are several children who have a sputum cough, but it is not serious. Zhang Ying said.
At 8:00 a.m. on January 13, Zhang Ying and her colleagues were surprised to find that the children were getting better during a round of rooms in the "red area" of Haihe Hospital. "The feverish children's body temperature has basically returned to normal, and the cough symptoms have also subsided." Zhang Ying said.
"From the perspective of Western medicine treatment, we mainly observe and treat symptomatically, such as giving anti-fever medicine to children with fever, children with cough symptoms taking cough medicine, children with nasal congestion using nasal sprays, and letting children drink a lot of water." Zhang Ying said.
Zhang Boli believes that Omicrong is the external feeling of wind chill, wind bundle lung guard, "wind evil" characteristics are very obvious, patients headache, fever, sore throat, nasal congestion, runny nose, cough, less phlegm, phlegm is also white sputum, so the use of wind antitussive cough, xuan lung anti-table medicine effect is better.

Li Xinmin said: "After the treatment of traditional Chinese medicine, the fever subsided quickly, and the symptoms of cough were significantly reduced. ”

Experts caution not to take it lightly
According to the Tianjin Municipal Center for Disease Control and Prevention, the initial cases came from custodial institutions and primary schools, and it was indeed because of the cluster, resulting in a relatively high proportion of children in the early stage of the epidemic. But as the epidemic continues to change, we have seen a gradual decline in the proportion of children in confirmed cases.
At the same time, experts also reminded that Aumechjong has ravaged the world, and has appeared in many places in China before this round of "attack" on Tianjin, so the treatment and protection of children cannot be taken lightly. At present, Tianjin has set up a second ward for the treatment of children in Haihe Hospital to fully ensure the treatment of children.
Zhang Ying reminded: "Many parents have a fluke mentality and feel that their children will not be infected. However, this time, the Aomi Kerong mutation showed strong invisibility and mild symptoms, which was easy to be ignored. She said that from the symptoms of children infected in Tianjin, such as sore throat, dry throat, cough and other symptoms should be vigilant, and relevant symptoms should be timely to go to regular hospitals for medical treatment.
