Pirate Ship Doctor [Rebirth]

The three words of boiling, disinfection, and sterilization, each of which is separated, they all know what it means, but when they are put together, they are not so intelligible.

"I know what boiling is, but what are disinfection and sterilization?"

Barnett couldn't hold back the excitement in his heart, as if there was a ray of light shining from the dark abyss in his heart, and a door opened before his eyes.

Donohue looked up at Barnett, looked at the other party's fiery eyes, and was silent for a while, feeling that if he wanted to explain, the other party would not understand what these things were in two or three days.

There were still patients waiting there, and he didn't have the patience to talk to Barnett about it.

So, Donohue pointed to the torn white cloth strips inside the wooden box, and said with a slight smile, "Dr. Barnett, I can't explain these things clearly in a few sentences. I'll talk to you later. Now, Just explain how to use it first... The knife for scraping off the carrion of the wounded needs to be boiled in boiling water for more than 10 minutes before using it, it will bring unexpected results, you can try it next time."

"Then what to do with these bandages?" The middle-aged man looked serious.

"You can put them in an airtight iron box and boil them for more than half an hour before using them. If this is really impossible, you can also wash them and expose them to the sun for more than six hours."

Without time to explain to Barnett and Joyce, Donahue welcomed his first patients, namely the eleven pirate crew members injured in the battle just now.

But obviously, except for Bart whose entire arm was cut off, the other ten were only slightly injured.

These were not very serious stab wounds, and there was no need to worry too much about suppurative infection. Compared with Donahue, they believed in the older Barnett doctor, so they automatically went directly to Barnett's side.

Dissatisfied with the corner of his mouth, Donohue was somewhat helpless. He was already 36 years old before he died, and he might be two years older than Barnett.

Bart was lying on the plank and was carried into the cabin.

His face was pale, his breathing was short of breath and he was panting heavily, and there was dense sweat on his forehead, which was clearly a symptom of excessive blood loss and imminent shock.

Donaxiu didn't dare to delay, quickly picked up a bundle of hemp rope hanging on the wall, and tied it forcefully on the wound.

Bart's wound, also on the previous pirate ship, was scalded with kerosene by other pirates and treated a little bit.

But in the final analysis, the group of pirates did not have professional skills. They also scalded the wound to stop the bleeding, but it was far worse than what Barnett did before. Not only did the wound have many blood vessels that did not stop the bleeding, but also a lot of dirty things stuck to it.

"But it's also good, it just happens to reflect my unique value."

The hemp rope was wrapped around the severed arm, and Donohue tied a knot fiercely, which immediately stopped the blood that was originally flowing down.

Without a stethoscope, he could only raise his hand to feel the pulse of the other party. The pulse was stronger than he had imagined. Donahue did not dare to relax at all, so he hurriedly said to Harry next to him: "Harry, please send I brought it from the medicine chest in the cabin, and Bart's clothes, boiling salt water, strong wine, candles and sharp knives, needles and thread..."

"Give me some opioids if you have one..."

Seeing Bart sweating profusely in pain and suffering, Donohue pondered for a while, then turned his head and confessed.

Looking back at the memory of the original owner, Donoghue, opium is the most effective analgesic he knows now, and under normal circumstances, most doctors will be more or less equipped with it.

"Okay, I'll prepare it now." Harry nodded and replied, "If you need other medicines, you can ask Barnett and the others."

Medicines are very expensive, and they will collect them after each battle and give them to Barnett. Many precious medicines used to be placed here.

Glancing again at Donohue who was standing beside Bart, seeing that he was obediently staying beside Bart, Harry nodded in satisfaction, and quickly walked out of the cabin.

There was a small pot of boiled salt water, which was steaming when it was served. Donoghue tasted it a little, and it was slightly bitter, so he knew that this pot of salt water must be the sea water they got directly from the sea.

Fresh water resources are very precious at sea, and most crew members dare not waste the slightest bit, it is drinking water for everyone.

So since he said he needed salt water, the pirates would naturally think of bringing some sea water back directly from the sea, and he didn't have any dissatisfaction with this.

Reluctantly using two forks to roll up the cloth strips, Donohue washed Bart's wound with sterilized sea water, and he skillfully cleaned out the fragments of flesh and bone and the dirt adhering to the wound. After a while, the bloody cloth strips piled up into a small pile.

The movements of Donoghue's hands had long been proficient to the point of outrageous, his white fingers seemed to be dancing, cleansing the wound neatly.

Without iodine or hydrogen peroxide, Donohue could only use the high-strength rum that Barnett used before to disinfect Bart's wound.

Donoghue gently soaked the silk thread in the rum, put the silver needle used to sew clothes on weekdays on the candlelight, and passed it back and forth several times.

Harry stepped forward and pressed Bart's severed limb.

Under the stunned eyes of everyone, Donoghue quickly stuffed a small amount of opium-made 'Wangyou Water' into Bart's mouth, neatly ligated the two large blood vessels on Bart's severed arm, and then I began to work hard to suture the wound, the cross-sectional area was too large, and the surrounding skin tissue was not sutured very well, but it was still no problem to wrap the bleeding point and bone.

Fortunately, after taking Wangyou Water, Bart's sense of pain was no longer so sensitive, and Donoghue started to sew up, no longer caring about it.

After suturing the wound, Donohue shook his head secretly, and disinfected the wound with rum again.

After waiting for the spirits to dry, he took out the ointment from Donahue's medicine chest and spread it on the wound. The ointment was made by mixing turpentine, rose oil, egg yolk, etc. Learn the exclusive secret recipe.

Although Donahue didn't know the specific effect, according to the memories left by the other party, the effect of this ointment was much better than that of ordinary soldering irons, which was why the other party's mediocre medical skills were liked by many pirates.

After quickly bandaging the wound, Donoghue heaved a sigh of relief and began to pack the tools around him.

It took about 30 minutes for the entire operation to be washed and sutured. This was mainly due to the fact that the instruments in his hands were too simple and unfamiliar. In addition, the light in the cabin was not very good, so he was slow to deal with it. some.

If it was put in the past, it would be completed in less than fifteen minutes.

But all of this, in the eyes of others, was a witness to the birth of a miracle. Everyone's eyes were almost glued to Donoghue's body. Those white and slender hands seemed to emit a soft white light in the eyes of everyone. It is the gospel given by God!

God!

Such a large wound on Bart's body can stop the bleeding without burning it?Didn't even hear Bart's screams even with a needle and thread? !

Seeing Bart's soothing face and gradually calming breathing, many injured pirates stared wide-eyed and almost couldn't close their mouths in shock.

After all, no one wants to be scalded with a hot iron after being seriously injured and dying of pain...

hiss!

That taste, just thinking about it, is like a tingling scalp and a pain in the whole body.

These pirates who don't know medical skills are like this, let alone Barnett and Joyce who are ship doctors.

Barnett was fine, but he felt shocked all over his body.

But Joyce's complexion was not so good-looking. He swallowed his saliva quietly, his complexion turned pale, and his breathing was a little short. He didn't expect that the boy in front of him who could read characters seven or eight years younger than him was so powerful!

Although he knew that the Wangyou Water made from opium can calm and relieve pain.However, there is still no way to achieve the same effect as the other party. The wounded who took Wangyou Water, when the soldering iron scalded the wound, felt extremely painful and sweated profusely.

He absolutely doesn't believe it, it's because Bart is more able to endure pain than ordinary people!

Because half a year ago, he had treated Bart for a knife wound!

"These things are too simple, and I don't have any antibiotics in my hand. If I want Bart's wound to heal without any other influences, I need to think of another way." Donahue stood beside Bart, thinking to himself while tidying up.

"Dr. Donner, it's amazing! These knife wounds can still be treated like this? Have you recorded how high the healing rate of such wounds is? Is the probability of suppurative infection really much smaller than ours? And How is the ointment prepared?" Barnett stepped forward quickly, his heartfelt wonder was filled with ecstasy that he had never had before.

This is the door to a new medicine!How can he not be ecstatic?

"Indeed, the probability of infection is smaller."

Donohue blinked and nodded. As a colleague, he still admired Barnett's inquisitive spirit. He said with a smile, "Wangyou water is addictive, so except during the operation, if it is not so painful at other times If people are desperate, then it is best not to take Wangyoushui."

"As long as the wound is kept clean and dry, the chances of purulent infection will be much lower. If possible, basking in the sun on the deck, the effect should be good."

Donoghue didn't say much, and after he finished speaking, he began to deal with the other patients again.

Just showing his hand, he calmed down everyone present, and the other injured pirates naturally came to seek treatment from Donahue with their eyes shining.

In the cabin, only Joyce had a black face.

The author has something to say: Remarks: The opium above is not wrongly typed. This product is called opium in China, but it is called opium abroad. This is because of translation problems after it was introduced to China, so it changed from opium to opium.Early rise of opium began in ancient Greece. At that time, opium was not a big smoking gun, but Wangyoushui (the name should also be a water medicine, right?! Puff) used to treat diseases and relieve pain until later , it changed.
