At the Department of Internal Resuscitation and Anti-Poison, the patient was treated with mechanical ventilation, body temperature control, anti- momentum and treatment of cerebral edema. After 5 days of treatment, the patient gradually regained consciousness, was removed from the endotracheal tube on the 6th day and discharged on the 10th day in a state of alertness, without neurological sequelae.
According to Dr. Pham Dang Hai - Head of the Department of Internal Medicine Resuscitation and Anti-Poison, the body temperature control method helps reduce body temperature to below 36 degrees Celsius, thereby reducing the need for oxygen consumption of damaged nerve cells, while reducing end timescale pressure in patients with coma, cerebral edema and after stopping circulation. This method is implemented through 4 stages: rapid cooling of the body, maintaining target body heat, warming up again and maintaining normal body heat.
brain damage, especially cerebral edema in patients who survived Suicides, is a serious complication that can lead to increased intracranial pressure, lack of oxygen and damage to brain tissue, threatening their lives. Controlling body heat is an important resuscitation method that helps protect the brain and improve treatment outcomes.
When a patient is suspended, the suffocation occurs quickly, leading to serious lack of oxygen in the blood and multiple organ damage, in which the brain is severely affected. Cerebral Penesis is the body's physiological reaction to brain damage, increasing intracranial pressure, causing the risk of impaired brain function and death if not treated promptly.
