My Deep-sea Fishery

Chapter 676: Fighting nations in Antarctica

And there are not a few Weddell seals drowning under ice. At present, there are about 800,000 Weddell seals in the world. Their normal life span is about 20 years. However, because of their death behavior, all of them The average lifespan of Weddell seals is less than ten years.

Most of the Weddell seals that died abnormally swam under the ice floes and were suffocated alive.

"Leave it on the ship, and when it returns, send it to the Antarctic Animal Rescue Station by the way." Xiang Yang ordered.

The Weddell seal’s teeth were almost completely melted, and the gums were rotten everywhere. If left alone, it would never be able to recover from such a serious injury.

"Come on, give me the squid. You can eat some of this." Chen Qingsheng grabbed a handful of krill to the Weddell seal and placed the krill on the deck next to it.

The size of the krill is so small that the Weddell seal can swallow it whole.

I saw this Weddell seal raised its head first, squinted at Chen Qingsheng for a while, then lowered its head, sniffed at the small pile of krill, and after repeated confirmation that there was no danger, he slowed down. Eat it up.

"Brother Yang, why do you think this Weddell seal always likes to drill under the ice?" Fang Youqun asked curiously.

Xiang Yang smiled, "Weddell seals like the cold very much. They spend most of their time on the ice. They bite out an ice cave on the ice and use it to prey, because the ice cave is very difficult to bite. They will bite the ice cave again every once in a while to avoid freezing at the entrance of the cave again, but you know that the temperature in Antarctica is changeable and there are blizzards, so the freezing time of this ice cave is not fixed. One who doesn’t control it well may be trapped under the ice."

After the Weddell seal ate a few krill slowly, he lay on the deck, closing his eyes with a little fatigue.

"Captain, the gums of this Weddell seal have rotted, and basically can't support the animal rescue station. If we want to save it, we can only do it now." Chen Qingsheng said quite seriously.

"Shall we save?" Xiang Yang was stunned for a moment, "Does any of you know medical skills?"

The crew shook their heads.

Xiang Yang was not disappointed either. He had known this for a long time. There were indeed a few crew members who knew a little bit of medicine on board, but they were also for medical treatment. Weddell seals were treated to a doctor, so it was really embarrassing for them.

Xiang Yang squatted in front of the Weddell seal and used it to open its mouth, and a stench immediately puffed his nose.

Xiang Yang's heart sank. The Weddell seal's injury was more serious than Xiang Yang had imagined. Its teeth were almost invisible. The gums were purple or black, and in some places, they were also very serious. Blisters, and even rotten flesh that has completely suppurated.

"Captain, I think the first thing we need now is to clean the purulent and rotten flesh for it first, and then disinfect it. As for the teeth, we can wait until the animal rescue station to find a way." Chen Qingshengxiao Soundtrack.

Xiang Yang nodded, "Give it an anesthesia injection and help it treat the wound first."

Chen Qingsheng hesitated and said, "But captain, who will treat it for its wounds?"

Xiang Yang looked around, and all the crew shook their heads.

If they are asked to do some physical work, they are all good hands, but if they are asked to treat the wounds of the animals, this kind of technical work really embarrass them.

"I'm coming." Xiang Yang said.

When he was in school, Xiang Yang also learned some basic rescue knowledge. Although he hadn't used it before, the knowledge was in Xiang Yang's mind. Now he can only use a dead horse as a living horse doctor.

In 1961, the Russian Rogozov was able to perform an operation on himself under the extremely crude conditions of Antarctica, proving to the world that humans can overcome nature and the cold and ruthless Antarctica. Xiang Yang felt that he could also challenge it.

However, Rogozov is a highly skilled doctor. In 1961, he followed an Antarctic expedition team to the Antarctic.

After reaching the Antarctic, Rogozov himself fell ill. After his own judgment, he was suffering from acute appendicitis.

If it is on land, acute appendicitis is just a trivial disease, but it can easily kill a person on the Nanji Road.

Not to mention that the sick person is the only doctor in the entire scientific expedition team.

As the saying goes, healers do not heal themselves. At that time, the entire scientific expedition team was desperate. The captain even brought paper and pen to ask Rogozov to write down the survivors, explain the funeral, and wait for death to come.

However, under the torment of the severe pain, Rogozov chose to save himself. He had to endure the severe pain and operate on himself without anesthesia.

Rogozov’s teammates were all shocked, but instead of watching Rogozov die, the expedition team chose to help Rogozov fight together~www.wuxiahere.com~ The operating room is very simple. In the Antarctic camp, the attending physician is the patient himself, and the assistant is an engineer and a meteorologist.

Rogozov was lying on the hospital bed. After disinfecting himself, he cut open his abdomen with a scalpel. At that time, everyone was afraid to get out because Rogozov was lying and it was very difficult to operate. A simple resection of acute appendicitis is unusually difficult.

In addition, the mirror that the assistant engineer put up on Rogozov’s abdomen reflected the opposite view, which made the operation more difficult again. Rogozov could only constantly explore the organs in his abdominal cavity with his hands. Find your own appendix.

Halfway through the operation, Rogozov became very weak due to excessive blood loss and severe physical exertion. He had to stop and rest every four or five minutes. At that time, the blood almost stained the entire bed. Quilt.

However, it was in this situation that Rogozov completely removed himself from the appendix, and then sewed himself up with needles and threads.

After the operation, Rogozov regained great speed, and in only two weeks, he was able to walk on the ground again and start his normal work.

Compared with Rogozov's shrewd medical skills, Xiang Yang's medical theory is undoubtedly still at a theoretically feasible level.

But compared to Rogozov's operation at that time, Xiang Yang's operation was much less difficult.

At least Xiang Yang's operation is theoretically feasible.

At that time, Rogozov's operation was theoretically unworkable. The operation was a miracle in the history of world medicine.

Even Rogozov himself recalled afterwards that if he were asked to do it again, he might not be able to succeed.

After returning to Russia, this incident caused a huge sensation at the time, and Russia even awarded him a medal.
