I Can See Health

Lu Chen frowned slightly. He stood up slowly, with a puzzled look on his face, and walked to the corner of the corridor of the ward with the female patient in bed 12.

"Auntie, what do you want from me?"

The woman looked hesitant, looked left and right, opened her mouth, wanted to speak, but paused again.

Is there really something hidden?

Seeing the woman's appearance, Lu Chen couldn't help but have some thoughts.

He remembered that on the first day the 12-bed female patient came to the department, she said she had a fight with her husband.

And she never had family visits while she was in the hospital.

Could it be because of family conflicts...

While Lu Chen was thinking about it, the woman opened her red envelope.

A white handkerchief was taken out, and something seemed to be wrapped in the handkerchief.

"Doctor Lu, look what this is..."

The woman spread out her handkerchief.

In her handkerchief is a yellow flower.

This flower has dark green leaves and light green backs. The midrib is sunken into the leaves, the petioles are flat, the cymes are terminal, and the corolla is dark yellow.

"Auntie, what are you..."

Lu Chen looked at the female patient in confusion, wondering what she was doing with a flower.

The female patient frowned and said in a deep voice: "Doctor Lu, haven't you been asking me if I have eaten anything recently?"

Lu Chen was stunned, looked at the yellow petals in his hand, and then looked at the woman in front of him.

"Auntie, you, did you eat this flower?"

The woman didn't respond immediately, she sighed.

"Doctor Lu, please check for me first. Is it possible that my poisoning is related to this flower?"

When Lu Chen heard this, he focused his eyes on the yellow flowers in front of him again.

Could it be said that this flower also has a cardiotonic effect similar to that of "digitalis"?

"This kind of flower should be very common." Lu Chen frowned.

Although he couldn't name the flower, Lu Chen felt that he had seen this kind of flower somewhere.

What he was sure of was that this flower was definitely not a rare species.

The woman nodded: "Yes, you can find them everywhere."

Hearing this, Lu Chen took the handkerchief and looked at the flower carefully.

A long while.

Lu Chen didn't see anything interesting.

It suddenly occurred to him that today's search engines have a "photo recognition" function.

I immediately took a photo and uploaded the "yellow flower" photo to the search engine.

But the output results are all kinds of strange.

Mainly because the characteristics of this yellow flower are not obvious.

Therefore, all flowers whose color is yellow appear in the search results bar.

It seems that using this "photo recognition" function will not work!

"Auntie, please give me this flower first, and I'll go ask for it for you."

"okay."

The woman handed the flowers to Lu Chen.

Lu Chen covered him with toilet paper.

This thing might be really poisonous, so it's better to be careful.

…

Back to the doctor's office.

Lu Chen took out the "yellow flower" in his hand and showed it to everyone in the group.

"Sister, do you know this kind of flower?"

Sun Guoguo looked at "Yellow Flower" and then shook his head.

"I can't even tell the difference between wheat and rice. Don't show me this."

Lu Chen: "..."

"Junior brother, what are you asking about this flower? Where did you get the flower?" Sun Guoguo asked confused.

Lu Chen quickly said: "It's the female patient in bed 12. She said she ate this kind of flower."

"Eat flowers?" Sun Guoguo asked in surprise, "Why eat flowers?"

Lu Chen shook his head.

"I don't know. As soon as I continued to ask, she stopped answering."

Afterwards, Ke Yue and Dong Hao also looked at the "yellow flower" for a while and shook their heads.

This flower looks very familiar.

But no one can tell what kind it is.

"Show me."

Jiang Qingyan suddenly spoke from the side.

Lu Chen was stunned for a moment, then handed the "yellow flower" to Jiang Qingyan.

"By the way, Xiaoyan, you usually like to grow flowers. You should know what kind of flower this is." Ke Yue smiled.

Jiang Qingyan said nothing and carefully wrapped the rhizome of "Yellow Flower" with toilet paper.

After observing for a while, she frowned slightly.

"The scientific name of this flower should be Oleander."

Oleander?

Everyone looked puzzled.

"Actually, this kind of flower is very common." Jiang Qingyan said softly, "Mainly in tropical areas, but it is also planted in parks, flower beds and lakeside in southern my country."

"Is this flower poisonous?" Lu Chen frowned.

"Such a common flower shouldn't be poisonous, right?" Ke Yue whispered from the side.

Dong Hao agreed: "There are many of these flowers in my hometown. I have never heard of anyone being poisoned."

"I don't know much about toxicity." Jiang Qingyan returned the "yellow flower" to Lu Chen, "But this kind of flower is widely planted in China. It has anti-smog, anti-dust, anti-toxic properties, purifies the air, and protects the environment. Ability, and a certain viewing value.”

"Well, thank you." Lu Chen nodded.

Although the toxicity of this plant is not clear yet, Jiang Qingyan has helped a lot, at least identifying the type of plant.

"I'll check online after get off work."

Lu Chen wrapped the yellow flowers in toilet paper and prepared to place them on the open space in the duty room.

"No need to check"

At this time, Li Yao suddenly walked into the doctor's office.

She looked around at everyone and said softly:

"Oleander is indeed poisonous!"

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone was shocked.

Just listen to Li Yao continue:

"Oleander is one of the most poisonous plants, containing a variety of toxins, some of which are even fatal. It is extremely toxic and there have been small reports of fatal or near-fatal doses."

"The most abundant toxins are cardiac glycosides and neriine. UU read books www.uukanshu.net Cardiac glycosides are natural plant or animal toxins that have both positive and toxic effects on the heart, which is similar to digitalis."

"These toxins can be found in all parts of the oleander."

"The clinical manifestations of oleander poisoning are similar to digoxin poisoning, including gastrointestinal symptoms, neurological dysfunction, and cardiac arrhythmias."

Everyone suddenly realized.

"Yellow flower" is oleander, and oleander has a similar effect to "digitalis".

In other words, the patient in bed 12 did suffer from the poisoning effect of digitalis because he ate "oleander"!

This all makes sense!

"But, but, why does she want to eat oleander?" Sun Guoguo asked a question that everyone knew.

Everyone looked at each other with their own guesses in their minds.

Lu Chen kept beating drums in his heart.

Wouldn't you guess this right?

After a quarrel and domestic violence, is it a family ethics drama?

"We just tell the patient what we know." Li Yao said, "Don't make wild guesses."

"Okay." Lu Chen nodded.

This female patient is under his supervision.

He should have told the patient personally about the oleander.

…

Beside bed 12, Lu Chen stood up straight.

"Auntie, this yellow flower is called oleander, and it is indeed poisonous." Lu Chen said.

"Really?"

"Well, Auntie, why did you eat the flowers? Did you take it by mistake or... some other reason?"

The expression on the woman's face was one of surprise.

"Doctor Lu, when did I say that I had eaten this yellow flower?"
