    At 2 a.m., a 3-year-old child had convulsions due to high fever and lost consciousness. The attending pediatrician Fu Xiuning on duty rescued him in the ward. Zhang Hua instructed the on-duty doctor through a video connection, giving sedation, antipyretic, oxygen inhalation, etc. Handling, because of timely treatment and proper handling, the baby achieved a drop in body temperature and regained consciousness that night...
