"In addition to acupuncture and physiotherapy, you can also do functional exercises at home, usually sit upright, lower your head, move more, and don't let the cervical spine maintain a posture for a long time......
In the last few days of the end of the medical assistance period, Zhong Haozhi still went to the clinic as usual, examining the patient's body, providing rehabilitation guidance, and prescribing exercise, with a gentle smile and thoughtful words to soothe the patient's nervousness.
Zhong Haozhi was originally the deputy chief therapist of the Haizhu District Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine in Guangzhou, and was dispatched by Haizhu District to the Weng'an County People's Hospital as the temporary vice president. In the one-year medical assistance work in Weng'an, he lived up to the benevolence of doctors, adhered to the way of doctors, used superb medical skills to help the people of Weng'an get rid of musculoskeletal pain, provided new treatment methods for stroke patients, brought new ideas and technologies to Weng'an, improved the level of modern rehabilitation treatment of the local medical team, and showed the deep love of Guizhou and Guangdong with bit by bit actions, which won the recognition and praise of the people of Weng'an.
White clothes are armor, and health is sent thousands of miles
In April 2023, Zhong Haozhi, as the leader of the medical team of Haizhu District, Guangzhou, went to the People's Hospital of Weng'an County, Qiannan Prefecture, Guizhou Province, thousands of miles away, to carry out a one-year east-west cooperation and assistance work.
Mountains and seas are connected, and things have love. The moment he received the assignment, Zhong Haozhi made up his mind to come to Weng'an to do something practical, not to waste a little time, to devote his medical skills to local patients, to bring health to local patients, to improve the level of clinical diagnosis and treatment in Weng'an County, and to leave his own footprints for the cooperation between the east and the west.
When he first arrived at the rehabilitation department, Zhong Haozhi found that the treatment area in the department was unclear, and all the patients were crowded together, because the treatment area was relatively small, and when there were many patients, the people who came later needed to wait for a period of time before they could do rehabilitation treatment. In order to solve this problem, Zhong Haozhi actively assisted the department to optimize the structure of the rehabilitation treatment center, standardize the division of treatment functions, adjust the structure of rehabilitation treatment personnel and the treatment process in the department, and built a new "occupational therapy room", which was divided into children's sports therapy room, speech therapy room, and sensory integration therapy room, so as to make the treatment process smoother, and at the same time determined the professional development direction of each doctor in the rehabilitation department.
Bedside rehabilitation programs help patients maintain range of motion and prevent muscle atrophy, and prevent complications caused by venous thrombosis and long-term bed rest. During the period of Weng'an's assistance, Zhong Haozhi found that Weng'an did not have this project, so he put forward an internal collaboration proposal in the help unit to increase bedside rehabilitation treatment projects for other clinical departments, and encourage more patients with rehabilitation needs to go to the rehabilitation department for treatment, so as to improve the cure rate of patients, let rehabilitation treatment go out of the rehabilitation department, and improve the quality of life of patients.
"I believe that this advanced medical program should serve all patients in need in the hospital, especially early stage patients in orthopedics and neurology. Since the implementation of the project for half a year, a total of 200 people have been provided with medical services, and many patients are willing to come to the rehabilitation department for rehabilitation treatment, and they report that after receiving rehabilitation treatment, the recovery speed has been accelerated and the length of hospital stay has been reduced. Zhong Haozhi said.
The doctor is benevolent, and the magic hand removes the pain
Every morning in the pain clinic, in the afternoon in the rehabilitation hall for technical guidance, after coming to the Weng'an County People's Hospital, Zhong Haozhi lived a busy and fulfilling life.
"Originally, the hospital arranged for me to work in the rehabilitation hall, but I took the initiative to go to the pain clinic, mainly to provide patients with a prescription for exercise therapy, relieve their pain, and at the same time correct their posture. Zhong Haozhi said.
Zhong Haozhi has been engaged in clinical, teaching and scientific research in the rehabilitation department for more than 13 years, and is good at rehabilitation assessment and exercise therapy after stroke, spinal cord injury, osteoarthropathy and various pain diseases, with an average annual treatment of more than 3,600 patients.
During the period of Weng'an's assistance, Zhong Haozhi always kept in mind the fundamental benevolence of doctors, thought about what patients think, was anxious about what patients were anxious about, and used a pair of rejuvenation magic hands to relieve the pain of patients and protect the health of the masses.
Li, a patient in Zhuzang Town, had pain and numbness in his lower limbs for more than two months, and was diagnosed with lumbar intervertebral disc herniation and sciatica, but did not improve after treatment for a period of time, and was transferred to Weng'an County People's Hospital. Zhong Haozhi gave him a series of muscle examinations of the pelvis and lower limbs, and found that the real cause of his pain and numbness in the lower limbs was the entrapment of the gluteus medius, and then stretched and relaxed his gluteus medius muscle, and then activated the muscles of other abductor muscles. I'm glad I met you and helped me solve the pain that I had been bothering me for a long time!"
In October 2023, 68-year-old Mrs. Mao from Zhongping Town came to the Rehabilitation Department of the County People's Hospital for treatment due to low back pain. Seeing that patients do not pay attention to their physical health, Zhong Haozhi is worried. He called the patient's family and patiently persuaded them to care about the old man's health and bring him to the hospital for surgery as soon as possible. The patient's family was moved by Zhong Haozhi's sincere care, and finally persuaded the old man to go to the rehabilitation department to successfully complete the operation.
"Thank you for helping my mother find out about this problem and have an early operation to relieve her pain, thank you very much!" Afterwards, Aunt Mao's daughter expressed her gratitude to Zhong Haozhi.
In the face of the gratitude and praise of the patients, Zhong Haozhi felt that he had just fulfilled his duty: "As a rehabilitation doctor, my duty is to alleviate the pain of patients and let them recover as soon as possible. In the process of visiting the doctor, I will try to get them out of the pain as soon as possible in various ways. ”
Teach by example, teach fish and teach fish
Leaving the technology in the local area and building a medical team that cannot be taken away is the goal that Zhong Haozhi set at the beginning of his visit to Weng'an.
It is better to teach a man to fish than to teach him to fish. Zhong Haozhi knows that only by cultivating more local talents, improving clinical diagnosis and treatment skills, and completing the role of passing on the role of help, can we serve the patients of Weng'an.
In order to help medical staff improve their professional level, Zhong Haozhi gave full play to his professional expertise, taught by word and deed, and actively carried out diagnosis and treatment guidance, business teaching, He went to the countryside to make rounds and participated in the discussion of difficult cases in the rehabilitation department, taught 1-2 times a month in the department, trained a total of 458 people, and held a teaching round in the department once a month; gave technical guidance to the rehabilitation center, visited the outpatient clinic of rehabilitation experts, and provided a total of 3,668 person-times of diagnosis and treatment guidance; led the medical team to complete the full coverage of teaching and inspection in 24 township health centers and village health stations, participated in 12 times of teaching and inspection in the countryside, and went to the townships and towns for 6 times of free consultation; participated in the teaching of rural doctors of the medical community of Weng'an County People's Hospital, and trained 120 people。 Through teaching and clinical guidance, the clinical diagnosis and treatment technology of the rehabilitation department has been improved.
In Weng'an County People's Hospital, Zhong Haozhi carried out a new technology and new project - the application of kinesiotherapy in shoulder pain of stroke patients, and took advantage of the opportunity of free clinic and rural training to promote it to township health centers. Zhong Haozhi told reporters that he most wanted to leave the sports rehabilitation technology of pain treatment in Weng'an, and the most training was rehabilitation treatment.
"Because the project I did in Guangzhou was mainly for shoulder pain after stroke, after coming to Weng'an, I found that there are many patients with shoulder pain after stroke here, and the internal effect of the muscle patch can play a role in stabilizing the shoulder joint, reducing pain, and eliminating inflammation. Zhong Haozhi said.
Before each training, Zhong Haozhi will look for specific cases, carefully prepare courseware, and teach what he has learned without reservation, and his seriousness and professionalism have been unanimously praised by the medical staff of the rehabilitation department.
"Thanks to Dean Zhong for bringing us the advanced concepts and excellent technologies in the east, allowing us to learn new technologies and add new treatments, which can bring faster curative effects to alleviate the pain of patients, and benefit a lot. Yu Xingmou, director of the rehabilitation department of Weng'an County People's Hospital, said.
Looking back on this experience, Zhong Haozhi was full of emotion and sent deep blessings to Weng'an: "This period of working in Weng'an is a valuable experience for me. In the process of medical assistance, I think that the cooperation between the east and the west is really very important, so that the advanced technology in the east can be left in the local area and benefit more people in the west. The east-west cooperation has a long way to go, and I hope that the east-west cooperation will get better and better, and I wish Weng'an a better tomorrow. ”
Mountains and seas are connected, and the road is longer. Zhong Haozhi said that after returning to Guangzhou, he will continue to carry out two-way training, arrange for medical personnel from Weng'an to go to Guangzhou for further study, and at the same time conduct remote consultations, transfer patients in need to Guangzhou for treatment, carry out more new technology projects and scientific research projects, provide more diagnosis and treatment methods for patients, and let more people in the west enjoy the high-quality services of the medical team in the east.
