When I wake up, the baby in the bathtub is unresponsive

At 17:50 on August 10th, at a resident's home in Bantian, Longgang, Shenzhen, his husband had not returned from work yet. While taking care of his 7-month-old baby at home, his wife Ling suddenly fell to the ground and became unconscious.

At 18:05, Ling regained consciousness and quickly checked the baby still in the bathtub. She found that the baby was drowning in the water and had no reaction when picked up.

At 18:13, Aling called 120 for help and began to continuously perform cardiopulmonary resuscitation on the baby under the guidance of the 120 dispatcher until 120 emergency personnel arrived.

Epilepsy is a chronic brain disease

Shenzhen receives approximately 80 police calls per month

Epilepsy, commonly known as "epilepsy" or "epilepsy," is a chronic brain disease characterized by recurrent, episodic, and transient central nervous system dysfunction caused by abnormal discharge of brain neurons.

At present, there are over ten million epilepsy patients in China, and epilepsy has become a common neurological disease second only to stroke, seriously affecting the physical and mental health and quality of life of patients.

According to the dispatch data of Shenzhen 120 in the past six months, there are an average of about 80 epilepsy alarms per month in Shenzhen 120.

Many people who suffer from this disease start from a young age. There are many manifestations during an attack:

Common symptoms during epileptic seizures——

The common symptoms of epileptic seizures are limb twitching, foaming at the mouth, loss of consciousness, and some less common symptoms, such as confusion, frequent chewing and swallowing, aimless spinning in place, and constantly waving arms

These seemingly ordinary small movements may all be a seizure.

If someone around has an epileptic seizure

What should I do?

Remember "five can, five don't"

Can save lives at critical moments

Actually, when encountering someone with an epileptic seizure

Just let go and let go

Stay calm and quiet

Do not shout or shake the patient

Stay by the patient's side to ensure their safety

If conditions permit, this can also be done——

✅ Patients can be placed in a safe location, away from dangerous items, furniture, or other sharp and hard objects, to reduce harm to the patient's body during seizures.

✅If conditions permit, the patient can be supported to the bed. If there is no time, the patient can be placed on the bed to prevent falling injuries after losing consciousness.

✅During an epileptic seizure, if conditions permit, a soft object can be placed under the patient's head.

✅Keep lying flat, quickly loosen the clothes on the neck and waist, tilt the head to one side to prevent suffocation and aspiration, and remove secretions from the mouth and nose.

✅If conditions permit, the symptoms and timing of the patient's attack can be recorded.

Never "save people" like this——

❌Do not use methods such as pinching the person, using a wrench, pulling the neck, or pounding the back, as this will have no effect on the patient.

❌Before the patient wakes up, do not stuff anything into their mouth and avoid administering medication to prevent suffocation.

❌Do not press the limbs when the patient is convulsing, excessive force may cause fractures and muscle strains, increasing the patient's pain.

❌Don't try to open the patient's mouth, put your fingers in their mouth or try to grab their tongue.

❌Do not perform cardiopulmonary resuscitation on patients with epileptic seizures. Only after the seizure has stopped, carefully observe the patient's response and breathing. If there is no response and no breathing, it is considered cardiac arrest. In this case, cardiopulmonary resuscitation is necessary.

Be sure to remember

Once epilepsy occurs, it cannot be stopped

Until the neurons stop abnormal discharge

If the following situations occur, you should immediately call 120 to promptly seek medical attention——

① First episode.

② Continuous or frequent attacks, lasting for more than 5 minutes.

③ Injury and difficulty breathing during the attack.

Epilepsy is not shameful

It's not scary either

We should face it scientifically

Epilepsy patients in their daily lives

These issues should also be noted

diet

Epilepsy patients should have a moderate and regular diet, balanced nutrition, and avoid excessive hunger, overeating, smoking, alcohol, tea, coffee, chocolate, and spicy and stimulating foods.

Try to consume as little water and salt as possible, including fruit juice, cola, watermelon, etc. Eat more vegetables, fruits, coarse grains, fish, shrimp, eggs, milk, etc., supplement sufficient nutrition, avoid picky or picky eating, and ensure a balanced and reasonable diet.

medicine

Epilepsy patients should not reduce, change, stop, or miss medication on their own. The direct consequence of not adhering to regular medication is to make epilepsy treatment more difficult, prolong the course of the disease, worsen the condition, and even cause persistent epilepsy.

Epilepsy patients must use medication in a reasonable and regular manner according to medical advice, and regularly check liver function, blood drug concentration, EEG, etc.

psychology

Epilepsy patients may experience anxiety, inferiority, sensitivity, and other psychological issues due to long-term recurrent seizures. Therefore, family members should care for and care for patients, creating a harmonious and happy living environment for them, so that patients can feel the warmth of the family, feel that they have not been despised by their families due to illness, and build their confidence in overcoming the disease.

security

1. Try not to go out alone, and when necessary, carry a "epilepsy rescue card" and medication with you, which should include the patient's name, age, disease, home address, phone number, etc. Don't let a mother with epilepsy take care of her young child alone at home.

2. Do not place electrical appliances, sharp tools, water bottles, etc. by the bedside.

3. Do not participate in intense competitive sports activities, nor engage in overly intense mental labor. Climbing, roller skating, swimming, diving, self driving vehicles, or engaging in high-altitude operations must be accompanied by family members. Patients with photosensitive epilepsy should also avoid activities in bright areas such as karaoke halls and discos.

Doctor's reminder——

Most epilepsy patients can control or reduce the frequency of seizures and alleviate the severity of seizures through personalized and rational drug treatment. Some children with benign epilepsy may even recover without treatment.

So, epilepsy patients must have confidence

As long as actively treated

It can definitely be like a healthy person

Life, study, and work
