医在北京(SCD)

分类: 中美医学

和我出国那年相比,无论是北京城,还是北京的各大医院,都已经发生了令海外游子自豪的巨变。惊喜之余,我也耳闻目睹了一些北京某些医院里的不足之处。

 

在北京某大医院的重症病房(ICU)里,每天探视时间一到,匆匆赶来的病人家属,又到了和亲人相见的时间。因为探视时间有限,探视者除了和昏迷或昏睡中的亲人们说说贴心话之外,还要做一件非做不可的事情,那就是要为亲人按摩四肢,尤其是下肢。

 

稍微有点儿医学常识的人都知道,卧床过久的病人容易出现下肢血栓。为了预防血栓的发生,北京这家大医院让病人穿上一种带弹力的网状尼龙袜。在我们学医的看来,这双袜子并不是溶栓剂,它不能确保万无一失。当然, better than  nothing, 有胜于无。在这种情况下,病人家属就要辛苦了,他们要像按摩工一样,在病人的大腿小腿上肢下肢上,不停地忙活着。按摩除了有安抚作用,还可以活络血液循环,从而达到预防血栓的间接作用。

 

为了亲人的健康,没有人会怕苦怕累的。问题是,医院能不能采取点儿并不难办的措施,把病人家属从可以避免的体力中解放出来呢?照顾卧床病人,劳心劳力,尤其是长期重复同样的体力劳动,难免会有“久病无孝子”的无奈。

 

据美国华人医生介绍,在美国,哪怕是一家特别小的社区医院,卧床病人都有常规的防血栓措施。虽然这个小设施也不是什么灵丹妙药,但它肯定比手工按摩要省力有效。

 

这个仪器叫SCD(Sequential Compression Device),可以定时为病人挤压下肢或其他需要促进血液循环的部位。我在网上查到的价格是:$425-795。这东西并不贵吧,但它为护理者提供的便利却是显而易见的。

 

人们总是在有意无意之中做中美对比。就拿这个SCD来说吧,美国小医院里常规配备的设施,在北京的大医院里都不常见。很显然,至少中美医院里的差距还是有的。
