VEHC - Nico's Car Accident

Описание: Did you know that after a "hit by car" incident, the most dangerous injuries are often the ones you can’t see? 🚗🐕

Even at low speeds, blunt force trauma can cause internal crises. Nico’s radiographs showed no broken bones, but her breathing told a different story.

Pneumothorax: This is when air leaks into the space between the lungs and chest wall. We removed 1 liter of air to save Nico's life.

Pulmonary Contusions: This is essentially "bruising" of the lungs. It often gets worse before it gets better, requiring 24-hour oxygen therapy.

Triage Matters: This is why we prioritize stabilization and oxygen before fixing external cuts. We treat the life-threats first.

At VEHC, we’re equipped for the "invisible" emergencies.
