Hohhot, February 18 (Xinhua) -- In the "14th Winter" ski field, you can always see crimson figures standing upright, with skis on their feet and medical bags on their shoulders, ready to carry emergency rescue.

Once an athlete has an accident, after receiving instructions from the competition leader, they will rush to the injured athlete as soon as possible. The skis are like "hot wheels", the bandages in their hands are like "Chaotian Aya", these ski doctors seem to be incarnated as a magical "Nezha", appearing next to those in need of help in time.

Our goal is to treat and transfer athletes with minor injuries and other injured and sick personnel on the field within three minutes. Jiang Bo, commander-in-chief of the medical security team in the Zhalantun competition area, said that a total of 114 medical staff participated in the medical security in the Zhalantun competition venue, including 23 ski doctors, covering 16 points on the track. Since March 2023, the medical security team members have conducted more than 20 special trainings and drills to ensure the physical safety of all kinds of personnel on the "14th Winter" field.

Among the 23 "Nezha" ski resorts, 15 are from Beijing, Hebei and other places, and many of them have participated in the medical security work of the Beijing Winter Olympics. "I have to get up at half past four, and I have to get to the arena at seven o'clock. Li Qiujun, a ski doctor from Beijing, said that although the intensity and pace of work are not as good as those of the Winter Olympics, it is also the norm to stand on the mountain for seven or eight hours a day. "I am ready to enter the scene to carry out rescue at any time, and my tense nerves cannot be relaxed for a moment. ”

56-year-old Jiang Yunyan, a native of Zhalantun with more than 10 years of skiing experience, learned that her hometown was going to host part of the snow events in the "14th Winter", so she took the initiative to sign up for medical insurance. "I love skiing very much, and as a doctor, I can participate in the guarantee work of ski competitions, although it is hard, but I am very happy. As an older member of the team, Jiang Yunyan, like the young people, went to the side of the snow slope halfway up the mountain every day, braved the severe cold of minus 20 degrees Celsius, put on diapers, and stood for hours at a time. Due to cold and fatigue, Jiang Yunyan had cold symptoms on the 18th. "Ski 'enthusiasts' really have a fever. She quipped. But she still stuck to her post and participated in less intensive mobile work.

In order to ensure that the injured can be treated as soon as possible, the medical security team repeatedly rehearsed the process and shortened the treatment connection time through training. In the snowboard halfpipe competition held on the 15th, some athletes were seriously injured and could not stand at that time. "There are athletes injured in the halfpipe, please be prepared for treatment. "It took a total of 9 minutes from receiving the instructions from the walkie-talkie, to the ski doctor entering the stadium to check, immobilizing the injured, to the rescue team carrying the stretcher, and transporting the injured to the medical station of the stadium by snowmobile.

In the event of a serious injury, we will quickly transfer the athlete to a designated hospital 18 kilometres away by ambulance waiting at the athletes' medical station after initial treatment. Jiang Bo said that the public security department will also quickly intervene to open the road to ensure that the wounded are sent to the hospital within 20 minutes, and the designated hospital has also opened a green channel to receive the wounded, so that every minute counts.

In order to ensure the safety of all people at all times in the competition area, the medical team is the first to arrive at the snow resort every day to wait, and they do not leave until everyone has left the field. "At night, we should also take stock of the wear and tear of medical equipment and analyze and judge the difficulties of medical security. Jiang Bo said, for example, it was found that low temperature affected the working efficiency of the automatic external defibrillator, and they worked together to analyze and discuss, and found a way to wrap the equipment with an electric hot water bottle.

Since the start of the "14th Winter" Qualifying Tournament at the end of 2023, the medical security team of the Zhalantun competition area has carried out dozens of medical treatments and sent 22 people to the hospital. The "Nezha", dressed in the "Chinese Doctor"**, are using their "galloping" speed, "three heads and six arms" skills and the strength to grit their teeth to escort the "Fourteenth Winter".
