Guardian of life, “medical” road with you | 5.12 Nurses Day, pay tribute to the white angel!

May 12, International Nurses Day

Is the common holiday of nurses around the world

Also in honor of the founder of modern nursing

British nurse Florence Nightingale and established

Nightingale once said:

“Nursing is the finest of the fine arts.”

Yes, it is.

In the process of human survival and reproduction

Nursing is an ordinary and noble work

And the 2020 Nurses' Day is extraordinary. In the face of the sudden epidemic of new coronary pneumonia, tens of thousands of nurses went to Wuhan to build a great wall to guard lives.

Whether it is the face strangled by the mask, or the hands soaked by disinfectant water, or wearing diapers for up to nine hours of non-stop work ...... With their uncomplaining dedication, there are countless lives survived from the foot of the grim reaper.

Worldwide, as of April 8, 22,073 healthcare workers in 52 countries and regions have been infected with CKP. Hundreds of healthcare workers have tragically lost their lives to the virus, leaving behind broken families. Their names and deeds should be remembered forever.

Being an angel inside and outside the hospital

During the outbreak, stem cells cured hundreds of critically ill new crown patients in Hubei, with excellent clinical results and repair of damaged lungs.

Most of the patients treated with stem cells have been discharged from the hospital under the care of the nurses. Outside the hospital, the nurses are still playing their angelic nature, through the donation of their own stem cells, to save those desperate families!

Yangzhou's “most beautiful nurse” Jiang Ping successfully donated 216 milliliters of hematopoietic stem cell-rich suspension, a bag of “seeds of life” that will save the life of a 5-year-old patient.

Similarly, nurse Jiang Ping also received thanks from the family, “Although we do not know you, but thank you for giving my child a second life ......” She received a letter of thanks and a picture made by a small child.

“This child is not much different from my son, but he is suffering pain that he should not have to bear at this age. I hope that after he passes this hurdle, he can overcome his illness!” Nurse Jiang Ping said.

Donating hematopoietic stem cells to help patients with blood diseases is not easy due to the extremely low matching rate (less than one in a million for unrelated matches in the general population). The donor's selfless help will revitalize a dying life.

Nanjing nurse Bian Honghong just donated stem cells and traveled to Wuhan for support.

She is a nurse, but also a hematopoietic stem cell donor, in September last year, Bian Honghong in the hospital successfully hematopoietic stem cell collection, the outbreak of the epidemic, Bian Honghong but cut off the long hair, simple packing under the baggage, and even greetings with his parents are in a hurry, and went to Wuhan intensive care unit.

After returning from Wuhan, Bian Honghong registered on China's human organ donation volunteer platform.

Nurses' Day was first established in 1912. Its basic purpose is to advocate, inherit and carry forward the humanitarian spirit of Nightingale's undaunted courage, willingness to dedicate herself to saving lives and sacrificing her life.

Nurses donate stem cells to save desperate patients and families. By donating blood stem cells, major diseases like leukemia and thalassemia can be treated.

After this outbreak, the public has become more aware of the life safety crisis after the harrowing experience. Stem cell storage has also become a very popular option after the epidemic.

Investing in life has become the best investment. The best choice for stem cell storage comes from the umbilical cord and placenta of the fetus, which is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for future use without the need for mating.

The umbilical cord and placenta can be used to extract both “hematopoietic stem cells” and “mesenchymal stem cells”. They are the most primitive and purest cells, with low immunogenicity and better transplantation results.

Hematopoietic stem cells are mainly used for the treatment of hematologic malignancies, hemoglobinopathies, bone marrow hematopoietic failure, immune system metabolic disorders, such as leukemia, multiple myeloma, thalassemia, and congenital immunodeficiency diseases. Cord blood hematopoietic stem cells do not need to be matched for autologous use, and the success rate of matching between immediate family members can reach 25%, and if the cells are used for others, they can be used if they are matched at 4 or more loci.

Umbilical cord and placenta MSCs are adult stem cells with self-replicating ability and multidirectional differentiation potential, which are mainly used for the treatment of graft-versus-host disease after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, promotion of hematopoietic reconstruction, and co-transplantation with hematopoietic stem cells to increase the cure rate of leukemia and refractory anemia, etc.; in this XK outbreak, the use of MSCs is the same as that of MSCs.

Umbilical cord and placenta stem cells have perfect histocompatibility, and there is no need to match them between family members. One person can store the stem cells and the whole family can benefit.

This spring, the most dazzling stars are undoubtedly those white-clothed angels. The most beautiful flowers on International Nurses' Day belong to them, the warmest applause belongs to them, and the most sincere respect belongs to them. The most beautiful flowers belong to them, the warmest applause belongs to them, and the most sincere respect belongs to them. However, the care and love for nurses can not only be on the day of Nurses' Day, but should be in every day of life.
