On March 20, Wang Yanran, a member of the second batch of medical team of the Capital Pediatrics Research Institute, came to the designated hospital in Xiaotangshan, Beijing. After centralized training and assessment, she was assigned to wards 7-8 to be responsible for routine screening of overseas tourists. At noon, the chief physician Ma Yingmin and attending physician Luo Zujin from the expert group went to wards 7-8 for consultation. When she learned that Wang Yanran was a resident of the Department of Nephrology at the Capital Pediatrics Institute, she was transferred to ward B to work. Unlike the screening ward, Ward B receives confirmed patients with new coronary pneumonia, including children, but all the doctors in the ward are from adult hospitals and there are no pediatricians. This is also the reason why Wang Yanran was urgently transferred in.

The next night, Wang Yanran received a help call from the doctor on duty, "Doctor Wang, Xiaoyu (pseudonym) has a low fever, please give some advice."

"You can do not use antipyretic drugs for the time being. I advise parents to feed their children more warm water, which can untie the clothes and reduce the cooling. Is the child's mental reaction good?"

"The mental state is OK."

"Then you can observe first, if If the body temperature exceeds 38.5℃, you can take antipyretics and take a few more temperatures at night. My phone does not turn off, call me anytime if you have any questions. "

"Doctor Wang, I don't have enough experience in pediatric diseases. Can I hand over Xiaoyu to you? "

"Okay, then I will be Xiaoyu's bed doctor tomorrow."

Xiaoyu's low fever has attracted everyone's attention. After the condition discussion, it was decided to do a lung CT for Xiaoyu to determine whether the condition worsened. The work of communicating with parents naturally fell on Wang Yanran. Wang Yanran understands that this communication work is not easy, and it is difficult for children under 4 to cooperate with the doctor for a CT scan. Wang Yanran explained in detail to Xiaoyu's mother the necessity and cooperation methods of lung CT through video phone. After three repeated communications and confirmations, Xiaoyu's CT examination was finally successfully completed.

From 8 am to 5 pm, Wang Yanran did not stop for a moment like a tightened clockwork. She had to understand the changes in the condition of all the hospitalized patients she was responsible for that day and the return on the test results. She had to arrange for the patients to undergo chest CT and electrocardiogram examinations, accept new patients, transfer critically ill patients to the outside hospital, explain the condition to the patients, answer questions at any time, and calm the tension...

After returning to the station, Wang Yanran fell asleep and completely forgot the agreement to talk to her family and colleagues about video calls. "The work intensity is indeed high, but working in this ward can give full play to my expertise and role as a pediatrician, so the hard work is worth it."
