On February 1, the first day of the Lunar New Year, at about 7:00 a.m., Huang Limei, chief obstetric nurse of Guangzhou First People's Hospital, came to the obstetric ward on the 4th floor of the Surgical Building early to start the day's duty work.
Obstetric medical staff on duty during the Spring Festival is the norm. The obstetrics department has 10 doctors and 30 nurses, who work in three shifts, and each person has to work about 3 shifts during the Spring Festival, almost every year.
On January 31, Chinese New Year's Eve, at about 5:00 a.m., Deng Yifei, a pregnant woman living in Jinshazhou, suddenly broke through the water, and she was quickly escorted by her family to the emergency department of the First People's Hospital of Guangzhou.
"Is there a nucleic acid proof?" It doesn't matter if it doesn't, first do the nucleic acid, and then send it to the isolation ward. ”
After receiving the notice from the emergency department, the obstetric medical staff only took less than 5 minutes to come to the scene to assist Deng Yifei to complete the nucleic acid testing and admission procedures, and enter the special isolation ward of the obstetrics department for observation. Subsequently, while monitoring the condition of the fetus, the medical staff provided prenatal counseling for Deng Yifei while waiting for the nucleic acid test results to be released.
If the pregnancy of the pregnant woman is extremely fast and cannot wait for the nucleic acid result, a special isolation delivery room is also prepared in the delivery room, which can allow pregnant women who have not produced nucleic acid results to give birth safely.
This series of processes, Cheng Yang, director of the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Zheng Shuxiang, head nurse, Huang Limei and others have discussed, practiced and applied many times, and doctors and nurses are familiar with it.
At about 10:00 a.m., the indications for labor were clear, and Deng Yifei was sent to the delivery room. The midwives on duty, Zeng Mei and Wu Dongmiao, accompanied her throughout the whole process, instructing her how to work hard and cheer her up.
"I really thank the medical staff who still stuck to their posts during the Spring Festival holiday, and from their words, I felt the warmth of home." Less than 100 minutes after entering the delivery room, Deng Yifei successfully gave birth to a thousand gold, weighing 3.52 kilograms. She named her daughter Chen Zhi, the harmonic sound "orange juice", which means sunshine and health.
"We have not been home for the New Year for five or six years, but seeing that adults and children are safe is the best Spring Festival gift for us." Zeng Mei and Wu Dongmiao looked at each other and smiled, and began to get busy again.
The 2-hour observation period in the delivery room ended, deng Yifei was sent to the baby-friendly area, and the nurse on duty, Zhang Ying, and her colleagues arranged her properly. She will spend an unforgettable Spring Festival with 8 other mothers in the baby-friendly area.
Time crossed midnight, the Year of the Tiger arrived as promised, and there was another woman waiting to give birth in the delivery room. The first "baby tiger" could arrive at any time, and the work of the midwives continued.
