从周五晚到周日下午，住院部陪护了两天，这是我第一次在住院部陪护，算是增长了一些见识。
病人管理系统
这个标题起的怎么这么像是本科生的毕业设计呢？😂
在住院部实在无聊，我就开始观察周围的事物，作为程序员，首先留意的就是医院住院部是如何管理这些病人的。
病人管理系统借鉴了澡堂管理系统，首先给每个病人发一个手牌，只不过这是一个信息化的手牌，上面有个二维码还是条形码，里面应该是包括了病人的信息。
护士小姐姐手里有个定制安卓机，扫描病人手上的二维码就可以获得病人的信息，在每次输液换药时，都要扫面一下病人的条形码，然后再扫描一下药品的条形码，这样在系统里就留下记录了。
护士手里的手机还有通知功能，当病人按动床头的按钮，护士的手机就会收到通知。
除了手机收到通知之外，在走廊里平时用于显示时间的屏幕上也会显示病人的呼叫信息。
平时显示时间
显示病床信息
这里显示的 05 33，05 是病房号，33 是病床号。
同时，在走廊里也会响起一段音乐，应该是需要护士站的护士手动关闭。
除了信息化系统，住院部还有一些老式的管理方式。
By the way, 我感觉医院里的大部分系统都有可能是东软做的😂
护士小姐姐的一天
这两天观察了一下护士小姐姐们的工作日常，在我看来，对于一个熟练的护士来说，他们的工作就是一个“机械化”的重复动作，可以说她们这个行业有入门门槛，但日常的工作更多的是“体力”劳动，或者说是“技术”工种吧。
护士大概是 8 点上班，一天就最主要的工作就是输液。
大概 8 点半，护士小姐姐推着装满药品的车子来到病房，然后开始挨个病人输液。一个护士大概负责两个病房，约 16 个人左右。当然可能不止一个护士，他们之间会互相帮忙，也许是每个护士有不同的职责，这一天出入这个病房的不止一个护士。
有时候，这个病房后面的人还没开始扎针，前面的人已经开始换药了。
所以每天早上都是最忙碌的，等所有病人都扎完针，她们会把药品车推到走廊里，一边玩手机，一边等着病人的呼叫。
夜班的护士几乎没有什么护理工作，基本就是在吧台（护士站）敲电脑（玩手机）。
PS: 不要催促护士，她们都是专业的。
增长见识系列
以前都是接受农村小大夫输液，我对输液设备的认识一直停留在小时候的阶段。
这两天在住院部里，看见了一些先进的设备，比如这个输液泵。
在网上找了一张图
原来有些病人需要 24 小时时刻输液，但输液的速度不能太快，这个时候就需要这个输液泵了，它就是按照设定的速度来一点一点推进注射器的。
留置针
住院部的病人每天都要输液，甚至是 24 小时不停，如果在这种情况下还使用我小时候的那种输液方式，那么病人的手臂就会被扎得像筛子一样。
所以现在有了留置针，这个针是可以留在病人的手臂上的，每次输液的时候就不用再扎针了。
这东西好像好几十一个
听护士说里面的针是软的，我就非常好奇，于是在 B 站上找了一个视频。
精密输液器
这是一个永远不会在输液管里出现空气的设备。
核心部件就是它
这东西好像也好几十一个
它的作用集过滤和排气于一体。
陪护杂项
大医二院是海景/桥景病房
陪护床扫码预约
每天 8:30 开始预约，费用 15，大概晚上 7 8 点送到病房，每天早上 5 点来收床。
这两天我都是 5 点起床的，人生都变长了。👻
医院的订餐和送餐服务
这个好像没有线上的订餐，好像是送餐员在每个病房问有没有订餐的。盒饭大概 17 吧，从住院费里一起结算。
小摊早餐
医院西门早上有许多摆摊卖早餐的，就是豆浆油条啥的。
我来两个蛋堡。
￥7
住院部的罗森
罗森已经开在住院部内部了，关东煮，包子，烧卖，盒饭都是抢手货。
很多护士批量买。
一些感悟
时间的长度真的由记忆决定
这两天无聊而又充实，无聊是因为我没有什么事情可以做，充实是因为我看到了一些我以前没有见过的事物。
对于我来说这两天从工作的思绪中突然抽离出来，身体和精神都进入到一个全新的世界，当周日下午再次回到正常的生活轨迹时，我感觉仿佛是过了一个暑假一样。
这时候我想起了“老高与小沫”影片中关于时间流速的说法。
对于 1 岁小孩来说，1 年就是他人生的全部，所以一年很长。
对于 70 岁的老人来说，1 年的时间只是他所经历的 70 分之一。另外，人的记忆容量是有限的，当你经历了你从未经历过的事，你关于这段时间，这件事的记忆更加深刻，也就会感觉这段时间更长。
我感觉确实是这样，所以旅行的人时间会更长吧。牛马总是拥有短暂的人生。
人生在逐渐进入下一阶段
我今年 27 岁，最近我的一颗牙做了根管治疗，意味着这颗牙废了。
小时候吃冰块，我妈总说“冰牙”，然而当时的我根本不知道“冰牙”是什么感受。
就像以前从来没有想过竟然有一天在住院部作为陪护一样。
最近渐渐体会到了。
随着不断重复的每一天的流逝，人生正在缓慢的推进。
From Friday night to Sunday afternoon, I spent two days as a companion in the inpatient department. It was my first time doing this, and I can say I learned a few things.
The Patient Management System
Why does this title sound like an undergrad’s graduation project? 😂
With nothing to do in the ward, I started observing my surroundings. As a programmer, the first thing I noticed was how the hospital manages patients.
The patient management system borrows from bathhouse management: each patient gets a wristband, except it’s a digital one with a QR code or barcode, presumably containing the patient’s info.
The nurses have customized Android devices. Scanning the QR code on a patient’s wristband brings up the patient’s info. Every time they change an IV or medication, they scan the patient’s barcode and then the medication’s barcode, leaving a record in the system.
The nurse’s phone also has a notification feature — when a patient presses the button by the bed, the nurse’s phone receives a notification.
Besides the phone notification, the screens in the hallway that normally show the time also display the patient’s call info.
Normally shows the time
Showing bed info
Here it shows 05 33 — 05 is the room number, 33 is the bed number.
At the same time, music also plays in the hallway, which presumably needs to be manually turned off by the nurses at the station.
Besides the digital system, the inpatient department also has some old-school management methods.
By the way, I feel like most of the hospital’s systems were probably made by Neusoft 😂
A Day in the Life of the Nurses
Over these two days I observed the nurses’ daily routine. In my view, for a skilled nurse, the work is a “mechanical” set of repetitive motions. You could say the industry has an entry threshold, but the daily work is more “physical labor”, or maybe a “skilled trade”.
Nurses start around 8 AM, and the main job of the day is IV drips.
Around 8:30, the nurses push a cart full of medication into the ward and start setting up IVs for patients one by one. One nurse typically covers two wards, about 16 people. There may be more than one nurse, of course — they help each other out, or maybe each has different duties; more than one nurse passed through our ward that day.
Sometimes, the patients at the back of the ward haven’t even been poked yet when the ones in front are already due for a change.
So every morning is the busiest time. Once all patients are hooked up, they park the medication cart in the hallway and wait for patient calls while playing on their phones.
The night-shift nurses have almost no nursing work — basically just sitting at the desk (nurses’ station) tapping on computers (playing with phones).
PS: Don’t rush the nurses; they’re all professionals.
Things That Broadened My Horizons
I’d only ever had IVs from rural village doctors, so my understanding of IV equipment was stuck at the level of my childhood.
During these two days in the ward, I saw some advanced equipment, like this infusion pump.
Found this image online
Some patients need IV drips 24 hours a day, but the rate can’t be too fast — that’s when this pump is needed. It pushes the syringe forward bit by bit at a set rate.
Indwelling needle (IV cannula)
Inpatients get IVs every day, sometimes around the clock. If they still used the childhood-style needle method, their arms would end up looking like a sieve.
That’s why indwelling needles exist now — the needle stays in the patient’s arm, so no new poke is needed for each infusion.
These things cost quite a bit each
The nurse said the needle inside is soft, which made me curious, so I found a video on Bilibili.
Precision infusion set
This is a device that never lets air appear in the IV line.
The core component is this:
This also costs quite a bit each
Its function combines filtering and air removal in one.
Misc Notes on the Stay
Dayi No. 2 Hospital has sea/bridge-view wards
Companion bed via QR code reservation
Reservation starts at 8:30 every day, cost 15 yuan. The bed is delivered to the ward around 7-8 PM and picked up at 5 AM every morning.
I got up at 5 AM both days — my life has become longer. 👻
Hospital meal ordering and delivery
There doesn’t seem to be online ordering; a delivery person goes ward to ward asking if anyone wants meals. A boxed meal is about 17 yuan, settled together with the hospitalization fees.
Street breakfast stalls
In the morning, there are many breakfast stalls outside the hospital’s west gate — soy milk, youtiao, that sort of thing.
I got two egg burgers.
￥7
A Lawson inside the inpatient building
Lawson has opened inside the inpatient building itself. Oden, baozi, shaomai, and boxed meals are all hot sellers.
Many nurses buy in bulk.
Some Reflections
The length of time really is determined by memory
These two days were boring yet fulfilling. Boring because there was nothing for me to do; fulfilling because I saw things I’d never seen before.
For me, these two days suddenly pulled me out of my work thoughts, and both body and mind entered a brand-new world. When I returned to my normal life track on Sunday afternoon, it felt like I’d been away for a whole summer vacation.
That reminded me of what “Lao Gao & Xiao Mo” said in their video about the flow of time.
For a 1-year-old, one year is their entire life, so a year feels very long.
For a 70-year-old, one year is just one seventieth of what they’ve experienced.Also, human memory capacity is limited. When you experience something you’ve never experienced before, your memory of that period is deeper, and it feels like that period was longer.
I think that’s true — which is why travelers experience longer lives. Workhorses always have short lives.
Life is gradually entering the next stage
I’m 27 this year. Recently one of my teeth had a root canal, which means that tooth is done for.
When I was a kid eating ice, my mom would say “cold teeth” — but back then I had no idea what “cold teeth” felt like.
Just like I never imagined I’d one day be a hospital companion in the inpatient department.
I’m gradually coming to understand these things lately.
As each repetitive day passes, life slowly moves forward.
