Behind the diarrhea"Killers": The Dongguan man saved his life because of the doctor's extra question.
Recently, Mr. Tan from Dongguan, Guangdong Province, went to Dongguan Hospital of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine for emergency treatment because of diarrhea all day, he thought it was just simple diarrhea, but the doctor's inquiry and rapid diagnosis saved his life.
According to reports, when Mr. Tan received ** in the emergency room, the doctor noticed that there was an irregularity in his heart rhythm and recommended that he complete an ECG. However, during the ECG, Mr. Tan suddenly felt palpitations, chest tightness, and then lost consciousness and his limbs twitched.
Doctors quickly diagnosed "A-S syndrome," a cardiogenic ischemic syndrome. This condition is also known as cardiogenic syncope or acute cardiogenic ischemic syndrome, usually due to a sudden onset of severe arrhythmias, which causes a sharp decrease in cardiac output for a short period of time, resulting in symptoms such as severe cerebral ischemia, loss of consciousness, and syncope.
Fortunately, Mr. Tan was rescued in time in the emergency room and was finally out of danger. Doctors said that if Mr. Tan became ill outside the hospital, then there would be very little hope of survival.
The onset of A-S syndrome is often not related to a change in body position, but is caused by a sudden, severe or slow heart rate. The name of the disease in traditional Chinese medicine is also called A-S syndrome. This condition requires adequate attention, especially for patients who often experience symptoms such as arrhythmias, syncope, etc.
In this incident, the doctor's careful questioning of Mr. Tan and timely electrocardiogram examination successfully captured the typical symptoms of A-S syndrome and quickly took effective rescue measures. This once again proves the importance of the doctor's attentive care and inquiry to the patient.
At the same time, it also reminds us that we should not take any seemingly simple illness such as diarrhea, vomiting, etc., lightly. It may be a warning sign from the body that requires our timely attention and seek help from a medical professional.
In our daily lives, we should also pay attention to maintaining good lifestyle Xi habits and a healthy lifestyle to reduce the risk of serious diseases such as A-S syndrome.
Overall, this incident not only demonstrates the importance of doctors' professionalism, but also reminds us to be vigilant and seek medical attention in a timely manner when facing any health problems. With the careful inquiry and professional diagnosis of the doctor, we can better protect our health.
