On January 28, news from Hoang Anh Gia Lai University of Medicine and Pharmacy Hospital said that this unit had treated and rescued a patient who had an accident due to a meat grinder wrapped in his hand.
Previously, the hospital received the case of patient N.T.B. (born in 1966, residing in Po To commune, Gia Lai province) who was taken to the emergency room in a state where his hand was tightly wrapped in a meat grinder, almost crushed.
Because the hand was deeply trapped in the device, the patient's family brought a meat grinder to the hospital to ensure maximum safety for the treatment process.
Immediately upon admission, the hospital activated an emergency procedure, coordinating between the maintenance staff and the surgical team to quickly remove the blender from the patient's hands.
After successfully handling the device, the surgical team led by Specialist Doctor II Hoang Anh Thuan performed surgery to remove, treat the lesion and shape the hand. In which, it was necessary to remove the completely crushed finger to ensure safety and limit the risk of complications for the patient.
Currently, the patient's condition is temporarily stable, awake, vital signs are stable and is being monitored and actively cared for at the Department of Neurosurgery - Traumatology and Orthopedics.
Through this case, the hospital recommends that people be careful when using machinery with cutting blades, especially meat grinders, to avoid serious and unfortunate labor accidents that may occur.
It's a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit.
