Nearly 50,000 children aged 0~14 die in China every year due to accidental injuries, with an average of more than 130 children per day!
And one of these accidental injuries is a very common ingestion of corrosive agents!
There is a 7-year-old boy's grandfather in Zhengzhou, Henan Province, who got the industrial sodium hydroxide in the factory, which is what we call industrial caustic soda, and planned to take it home for household cleaning, but there were no tools in the factory, so he took a bottle of unified green tea to contain industrial caustic soda, industrial caustic soda is very good for hygiene, and it is also a kind of cleaning agent that many families like.
What I never expected was that the child saw this bottle of unified green tea and thought it was a drink, so he picked it up and drank it, and just after drinking it, the child felt that something was wrong, and he began to vomit blood uncontrollably. #头条创作挑战赛#
Because this industrial caustic soda is very corrosive, the first thing to corrode is the child's mouth and throat, so it will cause these capillaries to rupture and bleed.
And grandma saw the child like this, it was also very anxious and nervous, so she felt that the child drank this thing, and simply fed the child some water thinking that it could be diluted and could protect the child, so grandma hurriedly let the child drink water, never thought that grandma's action would hurt the child.
Grandma let the child drink water, did not dilute the toxicity of this caustic soda, but accelerated the spread of caustic soda in the body, producing more heat, resulting in the child's internal organs were burned, and after going to the hospital for examination, it was found that the internal organs were burned very seriously, and multiple digestive organs from the mouth to the duodenum were severely burned and carbonized, that is, the functions of these organs have been all damaged.
The child was sent to the hospital and immediately admitted to the ICU, because this is a very serious accidental injury, and the slightest carelessness will most likely cause the child to lose his life.
The mother cried bitterly, the child will be 7th birthday in a few days, I didn't expect such a thing to happen, now I am particularly afraid of receiving a call from the doctor, I am worried that the doctor's call is to send bad news, every day at home anxious, crying helplessly, but there is nothing to be done.
Such a vivid case that happened around us actually sounded the alarm for parents: prevention is the key.
To protect children, we must do the "five don'ts", and parents should keep it in mind
First: Do not store chemical substances in beverage bottles without labels
Especially if it is contained in some bottles of beverages that children like to drink every day, it is easy to mislead children into drinking these chemicals.
Second: Don't leave dangerous goods in a place where children can easily reach them
For example, these caustic soda and sulfuric acid tablets are really corrosive, very dangerous, a little bit may cause great harm, these things are best not to use if the family does not have special circumstances, if you really want to use them, it is best to lock them up, and lock them up immediately after use, so that children can get them.
Third: Do not leave laundry pods within the reach of your child
Laundry pods have been ingested by mistake in recent years, and laundry pods look very good-looking, many children think they are candy, so the risk is also very high
Fourth: Don't leave the medicine out of your child's reach
There are also many elderly people who suffer from high blood pressure and diabetes, and may have to take medicine every day, and children see their grandparents taking these medicines every day, thinking that they are very delicious, and it is easy to steal them, which is also very risky for children.
Fifth: Don't leave children under the age of 6 alone in an environment where there is a risk of accidents
For example, it is risky to put your child in the kitchen to be easily burned by fire, and to put your child in the bathroom with hot water or in the laundry room.
In addition to prevention, don't panic in case something happens, for example, this boy, if the grandmother didn't feed the child, it might not be so serious.
If the child accidentally ingests these caustic soda or other corrosive agents, parents must pay attention to it, and would rather do nothing than do it indiscriminately, such as giving the child milk, such as giving the child water These methods are not right.
The correct way is to send the child to the hospital while calling the emergency room of the hospital to ask the parents in detail how to deal with it, so as not to make mistakes.
And when taking the child to the hospital, you should also take the residue of the item that the child swallowed, and tell the doctor when he ingested it. When ingested, what you have eaten and when you have drunk water. In this way, we can better avoid wrong first aid and trap the child.
Every child is the treasure in the palm of the family, and only by protecting the children can the family be happy.
