Fu Xuepeng is using a new type of ventilator
The doctor is debugging a new ventilator The misfortune of the Fu Xuepeng‘s whole family caused widespread public concern after being reported by various media, and the lamp of hope for this home was rekindled. After Fu Xuepeng successfully replaced the damaged respiratory catheter , he received the consultation of Professor Wang Qiugen, director of orthopaedics at the Shanghai First People's Hospital. “At present, Fu Xuepeng’s condition is stable. His condition in bed for several years at home has not deteriorated. This is inseparable from the careful care of his parents.” After checking with Xue Peng, Wang Qiugen told reporters, “Now Fu Yingpeng's prevention of lung infections is an important issue. The rehabilitation of spinal diseases needs to wait for new international results." The 200,000 worth of ventilator sent to the wardLooking forward, the 200 thousands yuan woth of ventilator donated by the rehabilitation home medical device chain company was finally sent to the ward. The ventilator is a brand owned by philips viacom of the United States and is now used in large and medium-sized hospitals. Mr. Chen, vice president of Beijing headquarters, said that their founders and Xue manzi, Zhang Ligang, and so on, are all committed to public welfare undertakings. At the earliest, after knowing the situation from micro-blog, we did the division of labor according to their own advantages. Xue Manzi was responsible for the donation, and Zhang Ligang was responsible for finding experts here, and the rehabilitation home was responsible for donating the ventilator. But at the beginning, everyone didn’t know the situation. Until we got there and found that the situation was very complicated. “Fu Xuepeng’s trachea was cut open and what was needed was an invasive ventilator (specially aimed at tracheotomy patients.) "The use of this type of ventilator requires professional guidance, so they have also found a expert. The expert came to Fu Xuepeng’s home and provided professional suggestions based on his illness. In order to buy a ventilator suitable for the model and function of their son, his parents, based on the advice of the expert, contacted the PHILPS business agent---Bejing Talent Trade Co., Ltd. After the president of “BTTCO” learned about this situation, he immediately promised to give them a free one, and arranged engineers to install and debug. The gift of this ventilator, is a portable device. Like a cell phone, it has a built-in battery. In normal times, the device is powered by AC power. When the power is turned off, it is automatically converted into a direct current from the battery, which lasts for about 6-8 hours. This machine is a combination of invasive and non-invasive. "Maybe after some days, Fu Xuepeng's situation will gradually get better and the trachea will be sewn up," Chen said. If he can use non-invasive ventilator, it means that he can breathe through the nose.But because his central nervous system has been severely damaged,resulting in loss of lung expansion function. No problem in simulated lung testingIn order to ensure the safe use of the ventilator, Taizhou No. 1 Hospital conducted a test for this - because one of the most worrying issues is that for many years Fu Xuepeng has become accustomed to using his parents to squeeze balloon to support his breath. And his body has also adapted to the speed and intensity of 18 beats per minute. So can he adapt to a uniform ventilator? Once he is unable to adapt, the consequences will be fatal. The hospital tried to connect the ventilator to a “simulated lung” to see if they could achieve seamless docking. Three hours later, the hospital’s medical team believed that the ventilator could be used on Fu Xuepeng. When Fu Xuepeng saw a breathing machine belonging to him set in front of him, he was very excited. Soon, he said to the doctor: "Adapted!" Fu Xuepeng successfully connected to the new ventilator. Wang Dongsheng, vice president of the Taizhou No.1 Hospital , told us now that the ventilator is in good condition, the indicators are all normal, and Fu Xuepeng still needs to stay in hospital for observation. And the hospital will provide professional ventilator training for Fu Xuepeng's family.
