Share ko lang yung nangyari sa duty ko kagabi.

May isang patient ako, diagnosed with stage IV endometrial cancer. matagal na siya nakaconfine sa hospital, and during my previous duties, nakakausap ko pa siya ng matino, maayos naman lagay niya. naging "close" ko na rin siya... pero ang patient kasi ay terminally ill na. darating ang time na magdedeteriorate siya and efforts to be aggressive ay magiging futile in a way. so this week lang, yung patient and yung relatives niya, nagsign ng "do not resuscitate" (DNR) and "do not intubate" (DNI) na consent if in case mag-arrest yung patient.

so ayun nga, kagabi, the patient's condition has been progressively and slowly deteriorating. andun ako sa bedside, monitoring her vital signs... yung blood pressure, wala na ako marinig sa stethoscope ko, kapa-kapa na lang. yung heart rate, bumibilis ng sobra... yung oxygen saturation ng katawan niya, nasa ~50% na lang... with the DNR and DNI consents, grabe talaga. sobra akong nalungkot, kasi as a doctor, i was there watching my patient deteriorating without doing anything but monitor her status...

while inside the patient's room, yung mga kamag-anak ng patient are getting emotional. i could hear them say, "nay, ipikit mo lang mata mo kapag pagod ka na ha...", or "nay, bukas paggising mo maliwanag na...", etc. gusto ko ngang lumabas sa room kasi nakakaiyak talaga yung mga eksena. and the patient has become dear to me too.

it was a different duty last night. i was in the patient's room throughout the night... watch her deteriorate until she breathed her final breath this morning...

[carpediem]

that's sad.    ganyan talaga buhay.

how many cases like that have you witnessed?

[ctan]

it was really sad carpediem... that was the first time I had that experience. kasi sa buong hospital life ko, either yung mga nagdedeteriorate ay ginagawa namin ang lahat to revive, or kung may DNR/DNI status man, hindi ako assigned sa unit na yun. haay...

[eLgimiker0]

nasad ako bro sa story mo

[maykel]

OT: nalungkot ako sa post ni ctan. naalala ko tuloy bigla yung sa lola ko.. pinapanood namin yung unti unting pagbangal ng paghinga nya.until sa moment na hindi na sya humihinga... hay!!!

in my 4 years sa hospital duty noong college , fortunate for me kasi wala pa akong namatay na patient under my care. baka lang siguro always good prognosis ang naka-assign sa akin.

pero brother in his 2nd sa nursing, namatayan na siya , ito pa sa armz talaga nya kasi papunta na silang hospital kasi ililipat ang patient to bigger facility, sa ambulance namatay.

[ctan]

Things like that happen... And it's always with a reason... Sometimes, we do not know why pero things happen the way they are...

[eLgimiker0]

Yes bro ctan. By the way, kamusta kagabi? ahahaha

"hotdog"
