"Ten Sins" for Drunk

1

suffocation

suffocation

suffocation , and suffocation can easily occur when vomiting, especially in coma patients. In mild cases, inhaled pneumonia and lung infection , and in severe cases, they can directly suffocate and die.

2

Acute pancreatitis

upper abdomen pain after drinking, and the abdominal pain does not relieve after vomiting. Beware of acute pancreatitis. When the condition is severe, the fatal " inflammation storm " may occur, resulting in multiple organ failure.

3

Gastrointestinal bleeding

Water drinking can cause acute gastric mucosa damage and bleeding. When vomiting is severe, cardia mucosa tear may also occur, causing major bleeding.

4

cardiac acute

alcohol may induce acute myocardial infarction , especially elderly patients with underlying diseases such as hypertension , diabetes , etc. Sleeping drinkers have relatively occult acute myocardial infarction and can be asymptomatic. Therefore, when treating drunk people, doctors usually do an electrocardiogram.

5

Cerebral infarction and Cerebral hemorrhage

0 Infarction or bleeding in the brain of drunk people is often covered by the symptoms of drunkenness. It was not until the drunken person woke up for a long time and was sent to the hospital for CT examination. It was not until that the drunken person had cerebral hemorrhage or cerebral infarction, but the best time for treatment had been missed. We need to be extra vigilant.

6

rhabditis elusion

dies often sleep for a long time. If the limbs are inactive and compress the limbs for a long time, muscle ischemia and necrosis will occur, resulting in rhabditis elusion.

7

Hydroxyglycemia

Alcohol metabolism will consume a large amount of blood sugar and inhibit hepatic gluconeogenesis (to maintain normal blood sugar concentration in the body, the liver can convert a variety of non-sugar substances into glucose or glycogen ), causing alcoholic hypoglycemia. If hypoglycemia coma lasts for more than 6 hours, it will cause cerebral edema , central nervous system damage, and even death.

8

low body temperature

Alcohol can cause blood vessel dilation and increase heat dissipation, especially in cold environments, which can easily cause low body temperature. In rural areas, especially during the Spring Festival, drunk people often fall on the roadside for hours or even overnight, which is prone to general frostbite. What's more, due to hypothermia, he eventually loses consciousness, coma, and freezing, and his life is threatened.

9

methanol poisoning

methanol is a colorless, transparent, slightly ethanoly liquid, and is one of the main ingredients of industrial alcohol .If you drink bulk liquor blended with methanol, it can cause methanol poisoning, resulting in blindness, and in severe cases, life-threatening.

0

Accidental after drunk

There are many accidental injuries caused by drinking, especially car accidents, falls, falls, drownings, etc. caused by drunk driving.

Learn to recognize the symptoms of drunkenness

Clinical based on the symptoms of drunkenness is divided into three phases. The public should learn to identify these three periods and take corresponding first aid measures.

1

excitement period

drinkers start by drinking and gradually become euphoric, talkative, conceited, energetic, and irritable.

When a drinker is around us reaches this state, we should take the following measures: First, let him stop drinking; second, you can chat with the drinker, but be careful not to anger him; let the drinker drink more water or eat some fruits with high water content, such as watermelon, orange, pear, etc., which will help the alcohol be excreted with the urine.

2

atoxygen period

At this stage, drinkers are unstable in gait, clumsy movements, vague speech, and incoherent speech; some drinkers may have symptoms such as blurred vision, nausea, and vomiting.

When the drinkers around us reach this state, in addition to taking measures during the excitation period, we also need to pay attention to: a dedicated person to accompany the drinkers, appropriately restrict their activities, and avoid accidental injuries such as falling and falling; you can use the method of stimulating the throat to induce vomiting to reduce the absorption of alcohol by the gastrointestinal tract; if the symptoms are relieved, the drinkers can rest on their side and pay attention to keeping warm; observe the drinkers' breathing and pulse, and if there is no special situation, you can recover by yourself when you wake up. If the drinker has a faster pulse, slowed breathing, damp and cold skin, and irritability after he is in bed, he should be sent to the hospital for treatment immediately.

03

Sleeping period

Drinkers at this stage are in a drowsy state, manifested as pale complexion, purple lips, wet and cold skin, decreased body temperature, superficial breathing, and dilated pupils. In severe cases, people fall into a deep coma, with lower blood pressure, slow breathing, faster heart rate, and even death due to respiratory and circulatory failure.

If the drinker experiences the above situation, it means that the situation is critical and the following measures need to be taken:

. Call the "120" emergency number or send the hospital to the hospital for treatment urgently.

. Unlock the neckline and belt of the drinker, clean up dirt from the mouth and nose, and ensure smooth respiratory tract.

. Let it maintain its lateral lying position, do not induce vomiting or feed food, and avoid misaccination.

. Put it on a blanket or jacket to keep warm, turn it over regularly, and prevent the limbs from being subjected to long-term pressure.

. If you find that your breathing and heartbeat stops, perform CPR immediately.
