Post-95 doctors regard blood donation as a responsibility, and insist on donating 4400 ml of blood for 3 years

Li Chao is donating machine platelets.

Red Net Moment, January 19 (Correspondent Cao Yifei) It is easy to donate blood, but it is rare to insist on donating blood regularly. A few days ago, in the machine collection hall of the blood station in the center of Chenzhou, Li Chaoshi, a post-95 cardiovascular physician, came to the donor machine to collect platelets again every half a month, and according to statistics, he donated blood 11 times in 3 years, accumulating 4400 ml.

Born in 1996, Li Chao became a medical student after the college entrance examination, and he remembers the first blood donation. "When we went to school, there was a blood donation truck parked downstairs in the dormitory all year round, and I thought it was a very honorable thing to donate blood." After learning the significance and importance of blood donation, he decided to join the ranks of unpaid blood donation, and as soon as the interval came, he would come to the blood station to participate in the blood donation.

If the first blood donation gave Li Chao a preliminary understanding of unpaid blood donation, the subsequent events made him understand the profound meaning behind unpaid blood donation.

During his junior year, Li Chao was assigned to the hematology department for an apprenticeship, during which he often faced life and death. Most of the hospitalized patients in the hematology department are severely ill, of which leukemia patients account for the majority, and what they lack most is platelets. "Some patients have the conditions to be treated, but it is a pity that the lack of platelets in their cities has led to delays in treatment, thus missing the best treatment time." Li Chao said that due to the lack of publicity on platelet donation, many people do not understand platelet donation. "Donating platelets can help more people."

Watching patients suffer greatly due to complications such as severe anemia and low thrombocytopenia causing bleeding, as a doctor, Li Chao felt that what he could do about it was very limited. "It was really hard to feel at that time, and I wanted to do everything I could to help them alleviate their pain." What he saw and heard during his clinical work made Li Chao more firm in his belief in donating platelets, and even if his family had some worries, he had no remorse.

Platelet donation generally takes an hour, which is longer than the average blood donation. Many times he used his rest time to spend half a day donating platelets, hoping to send a hope to patients who were in urgent need of blood transfusion treatment. "As a doctor, I am well aware of the importance of blood for clinical treatment, not to mention that there is currently no blood substitute to completely replace human blood." Li Chao said: "I will continue to persevere, always ready to provide blood to patients, always in a critical moment." ”

At work, Li Chao relieved the pain of patients, and outside of work, he donated blood for free to send hope for patients. He said: "As long as the quality of the blood is qualified, I must continue to donate." ”
