An Event of My Life

I was trapped between two buses

I myself was a victim of chest trauma following collision between two bus (city and trans silva) at Shahbag beside National Museum in 2005.

Findings were: 1) Transient black out (about half an hour)2) Severe respiratory distress3) Huge surgical emphysema4) Hemoptysis

X-ray Findings were:

1) 3rd, 4th, 5th ribs fracture on right side,

2) Clavicle fracture on right side,

3) Total Nine (9 not 9th) ribs fracture on left side including 1st rib (broken into 3 pieces).

4) Lung laceration with hemo-pneumothorax and bronchial tear revealed by hemoptysis.

Management:

I was taken to ICU, BSMMU. O2 saturation was not maintaining. I was then taken to ICU, NICVD. Bilateral tube thoracostomy was done. Tracheo-bronchial tree becoming full of blood repeatedly. About 7/8 bags of blood was transfused. Due to severe pain, I could not expectorate blood of bronchial tree properly. So taking respiration becoming difficult again and again.

Management (cont..):

Everybody (Prof. Nabi Alam Khan, Prof. Nasir Sir, Prof. Elahi sir and so on…) had given up hope of my survival. Furthermore, 1st (Left) rib fracture is invariably associated with neuro-vascular shattering and limb loss. But miracle, I had none and I survived. Simply, bilateral Tube Thoracostomy were only intervention.

I was saved

By the grace of almighty God, I am here in front of you and speaking thereby.

Credential: Bilateral Tube thoracostomy (Chest Drain)
