After 95, the male nurse gave the baby an injection on her knees. "I was too nervous to wear three gloves for the first time."
In Huangshi Maternal and Child Health Hospital, Hubei Province, there are two male nurses from Nanjing Children’s Hospital — — Zhang Shaohua and Ma Liangchao, both members of Jiangsu Huangshi Medical Team. Because it is a small patient, it is different from adult patients in contact. On March 1st, the reporter of Modern Express came to Huangshi Maternal and Child Health Hospital to learn their stories.

Male nurses have both physical strength and tenderness.
After graduating from Zhang Shaohua University, she came to Nanjing Children’s Hospital. She has been working for almost 10 years and is currently the head nurse in the intensive care unit. Originally, he planned to take his wife and children back to his hometown Dongtai for the New Year, but the epidemic broke his plan. He worked overtime in the hospital every day, and then he went to Huangshi. Zhang Shaohua takes care of small patients in Huangshi every day, but the children just over one year old at home can’t take care of them.
Ma Liangchao, born in 1995, is a nurse in the intensive care unit of Nanjing Children’s Hospital. In fact, he didn’t tell his family at first when he came to Hubei for first-line support. Later, when he went out to war, he was interviewed by the media. As a result, his classmates saw him online and sent him to the class group. A few days later, my family saw the news and searched the list of Jiangsu medical team members online. This little secret can’t be hidden. While blaming Ma Liangchao for not telling himself, his girlfriend couldn’t help caring about him.
Zhang Shaohua told the reporter of Modern Express that male nurses are more needed in the intensive care unit, because working here is more stressful, faster in pace and more calm in handling things. Another important thing is that male nurses have an advantage in physical fitness.
The reporter of Modern Express noticed that male nurses also have a tender side. For example, Zhang Shaohua would braid the small patients in the isolation ward, while Ma Liangchao learned to wash his hands and teach children songs.

I’m too nervous to wear three gloves for an injection for the first time.
When I mentioned the thing that impressed me the most in Huangshi, Ma Liangchao remembered the first time he wore a three-layer glove to insert a needle. It was not easy to give a needle to a child. It may move around or cry. Wear three layers of gloves and goggles because you wear a full set of protective clothing. "That was to give a 3-month-old baby a needle. The child was quite fat and the blood vessels were not easy to find. At the same time, it is not convenient for me to stand, and I am not stable in squatting. I can only kneel on the ground and stick needles. The first time I wore a three-layer glove for an injection, I was so nervous that I didn’t tie it properly. "
When he mentioned this experience, Ma Liangchao was full of remorse. Later, he often wore gloves to practice needling, and he never made any mistakes every time after needling.

Suspected patient gives birth urgently.
Under normal circumstances, pregnant women will have an expected date of delivery, but it will be very troublesome if they give birth suddenly, and it will be particularly difficult to give birth when the mother is suspected of having COVID-19’s disease. A few days after coming to Huangshi, Zhang Shaohua and Ma Liangchao encountered such a thrilling thing.
Zhang Shaohua said, "At noon that day, we just entered the isolation ward. The parturient has just come over, and in a few minutes, her husband’s shouts broke the calm of the ward, saying that the amniotic fluid was broken. We found that the mother had opened nine fingers and the baby was going to be born at any time. But the ward at that time did not meet the conditions for delivery, and the situation was really urgent! After comprehensive evaluation, we will send her to the delivery room. She was very nervous at that time and kept shouting that she was going to have a baby, so we comforted her psychologically. Soon, the baby was born, and the whole process went smoothly, and her family was very grateful to us. "
If the pregnant woman is a COVID-19 patient, will the medication affect the fetus? Zhang Shaohua said that they are all symptomatic treatments, and generally they will not have much impact.
I also went to the hospital for business exchange during the break.
On March 1st, Zhang Shaohua was originally rested by rotation, but he came to the picu (Children Intensive Care Unit) of the hospital for communication because he was invited by the relevant person in charge of women and children in Huangshi. "I went to their picu to have a look, and saw the layout inside and the patients admitted, including bedside rounds. I exchanged some specific nursing measures and methods, and looked at the equipment. Because time is limited, we will leave our contact information, and we will follow up the answers later. I hope that the first aid experience or operational knowledge we shared during this period will improve their overall medical level and nursing level. "
They can’t leave until the epidemic is over. Although they don’t know when, they still have some plans in mind. What’s the first thing to do when you get back? Ma Liangchao blurted out, "Haha, take your girlfriend to eat hot pot and grilled fish." Zhang Shaohua, on the other hand, sighed: "I want to sleep peacefully."
