Although the child was not his direct patient, he had done an evaluation during the admission process.
If it was just progressive paralysis, the cause could be slowly identified. But now there is pleural effusion, which is a very bad sign.
If this condition cannot be controlled or handled properly, it could be fatal.
A puncture needle was brought over, along with a ventilator.
Liu Banxia found the position and directly inserted the needle into the child's thoracic cavity. This terrified the people standing by; such a thick and long needle, inserted just like that?
For these people, the procedure just witnessed had only been seen on television before, and now witnessing it firsthand was truly shocking.
As the pleural effusion was extracted, Liu Banxia frowned while looking at the color of the fluid in the needle.
The effusion has a pinkish color; it's possible the little guy's thoracic cavity not only has exudation but also bleeding.
