Medical care for 44 days "woke" the 19-year-old comatose girl

　　A 19-year-old girl in our city was in a car accident, with severe brain damage and a coma after surgery. The neurosurgery team of Longnan Hospital spared no effort to finally "wake up" the girl in 44 days.

　　On November 7, the reporter came to Longnan Hospital and conducted an interview on the matter.

　　Life hangs in the balance

　　Race against the clock to save lives

　　On November 7, in the rehabilitation department of Longnan Hospital, Xiaoyu, a 19-year-old girl, was doing swallowing training under the guidance of a rehabilitation teacher. Nearby, the girl's mother looked at her daughter intently and was not willing to leave for a moment. For the mother, the daughter is lost and regained.

　　The time goes back to August 15. After the incident, when the 120 ambulance took Xiaoyu to Longnan Hospital, she was already unconscious, with bleeding from her mouth and nose and dilated pupils.

　　"The patient's acute subdural hematoma, cerebral hernia, bleeding amount of more than 100 milliliters, the situation is very dangerous." Zhang Yu, deputy director of the Department of Neurosurgery of Longnan Hospital, introduced that the hospital immediately opened a green channel for emergency treatment, organized multidisciplinary consultations, and urgently arranged surgery.

　　"Patients are extremely acute and severe head injuries, on the brink of life and death, and one minute later surgery will be a little more dangerous." Zhang Yu led the medical team, and after two hours of rescue, successfully pulled Xiaoyu back from the death line.

　　After escaping from the danger of life, Xiaoyu has been in a coma, which is also a state that patients with severe brain injury must experience.

　　Can Xiaoyu wake up, and when will she wake up?

　　Career responsibility

　　Be sure to wake your child up

　　"When a child is a sophomore, it's the best time in life, and looking at her is like looking at my own child." After the operation, Zhang Yu led the medical team to carefully treat Xiaoyu. Father and mother guardEd by Xiaoyu's side day and night, hoping that their daughter would wake up.

　　In this way, day after day, a month had passed, and Xiaoyu still hadn't woken up. Every day, the mother holds a diary, writing about her thoughts and calls for her daughter. And Zhang Yu did not sleep a peaceful sleep, Xiao Yu's condition touched his heart.

　　"Those days were very painful, and the child's mother would ask me every day, can the child wake up? How can I not understand the feelings of parenthood? If you can wake up, you must be able to wake up!" Every time, Zhang Yu would answer firmly.

　　He knew that his words were a hope to encourage Xiaoyu's whole family to persevere. He knew in his own heart that if such a patient did not wake up for 3 months, the possibility of waking up was unlikely. There is a good chance that he will be in a long-term coma and become a vegetative person, and this is not what he wants to see.

　　The child is only 19 years old, and after the accident, all her relatives are tugging at the heart. Zhang Yu remembered the awakening experts of Beijing Tiantan Hospital that he met during his further studies, which was across the scope of two specialties, but he was unwilling to give up any hope.

　　Xing Liju, director of neurosurgery, was very supportive of Zhang Yu's idea, actively coordinated with expert consultations, and formulated the best treatment plan, and the whole department was waiting for Xiaoyu to wake up.

　　Family members are grateful

　　Mom cried and bowed in thanks

　　"Doctor! doctor! My girl is awake and can count her fingers..."

　　On September 28, the 44th day after Xiaoyu's surgery, her mother cried and went to the doctor's office to call Zhang Yu. At this moment, the circles of the medical staff present were red.

　　"Boy, do you know who this is?" Xiaoyu nodded, she knew Zhang Yu's voice, this voice in the days of coma, I don't know how many times I heard it.

　　A few days later, Xiaoyu was able to say his WeChat name, memorize poems, and speak foreign languages. The language function belongs to the high consciousness, proving that she is completely awake.

　　"I can't forget the scene of sending my daughter to the hospital, our family is scared silly." Deputy Director Zhang Yu told me about the operation, while calling the operating room, he asked my lover and Dr. Wang Di to push the child to the operating room, racing against the clock to minimize the daughter's head damage. After the operation, Professor Xing Liju, Deputy Director Zhang Yu, and Chief Nurse Zou Dongmei led the medical staff to carefully treat their daughter, and her daughter was reborn today..."

　　On November 7, Xiaoyu's mother sent a thank-you letter and pennant to the medical team, crying and bowing to the medical staff.

　　"The child wakes up, and no amount of effort we put in is worth it." Zhang Yu said.

　　At present, Xiaoyu is undergoing a series of rehabilitation training, and her physical condition is getting better and better every day.
