    Received more than 400 emergency rooms in 12 hours
      ■The number of emergency and outpatient services in major hospitals in the province has increased significantly recently
      ■ Most patients with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular, respiratory and digestive diseases
    With a snowfall in early December, the cooling mode turned on and cold weather began to hit. The reporter visited the Shijiazhuang City Emergency Center Communication Dispatching Center and the major provincial hospitals. As a result of the sudden drop in temperature, the number of hospitals in the ?120? ambulances and the number of emergency and outpatient visits in major hospitals increased significantly. Among the patients who came to see the doctor, the number of people who came to see a doctor because of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, respiratory diseases, and digestive diseases was in the top three.
      12 hours, the emergency department has received more than 400 patients
      At 12 o'clock on December 19, the nurses in the emergency department of the Second Hospital of Hebei Medical University have been too busy. The crying of the child and the snoring of the patient echoed throughout the hall. At this time, the seats in the hall have long been occupied by many middle-aged and elderly people, most of them need infusion therapy because of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. A closer look reveals that among the elderly, there is a child who is sleeping, and his tiny arms are covered with medical tape. According to the parents, the child was not retired because of high fever. He was not cured in the clinic, so he came to the hospital for treatment. As more and more patients, the hospital temporarily added a lot of beds, it seems very crowded.
      At 12:25, a middle-aged man hurried to the triage with the support of his family. I saw this middle-aged man with his hands on his neck and frowning. "It hurts when I talk to my nephew, and the sides of my neck are still swollen," he said intermittently. After carefully observing the neck of this middle-aged man, the nurse at the triage found that his lymph nodes had become inflamed, and the inflammation had spread to the throat, and the condition was more serious.
      According to Wang Yingying, deputy head nurse of the emergency department, every day after the noon clinic is closed, patients who queue up in the outpatient clinic will enter the emergency department. "Even if this is the case, the emergency department is not too busy, and the emergency department is really busy at night, especially in the middle of the night, the ambulances are lined up. From 12 o'clock last night until now, our emergency department has Received more than 400 patients, most of whom have cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases and respiratory diseases such as myocardial infarction and pneumonia."
      As time went by, the emergency department gradually became a "battlefield" smell, and the nurses began a real "fight."
      At 14:15, as the whistle of the ambulance approached the emergency department, a patient with cerebral hemorrhage was transferred from Xinle County;
      At 14:18, another ambulance roared. A man living in Chang'an District was sent to the toilet and sudden high blood pressure was sent.
      At 14:20, the medical staff just pushed the patient with high blood pressure into the observation room, and a young woman standing in front of the triage suddenly fainted...
