The female college student Xinxin (pseudonym) suddenly fainted when dancing, and her limbs and heads could not move. After a doctor's examination, they found that they were respiratory alkali poisoning. On July 6, in the third hospital of Wuhan, Xinxin was still worried about the matter.

On July 3rd, Xinxin and his classmates rehearsed dance urgently. After the afternoon, everyone was sweating. In the evening of the day, Xinxin suddenly fainted. Although she soon woke up, her head and limbs could not move, and her hands began to make numbness. The teacher immediately contacted 120 and sent her to the Third Hospital of Wuhan. Li Shoupeng, deputy chief physician of the emergency department of the first righteous hospital of the hospital, took the consultation and asked her rehearsal environment for Xinxin. After learning that the environment was sultry, Xinxin's rehearsal intensity was relatively strong. After a lot of sweat, Li Shoupeng had the answer.

Li Shoupeng immediately asked Xinxin to hold his mouth, take a deep breath with his nose, and slow down the breathing frequency to make his breathing rhythm normal. Use this physical method to treat breathing alkali poisoning. "Xinxin breathed too much during rehearsal, and excessive breathing caused excessive carbon dioxide in the body, causing numbness in the hands and feet, which was clinically called respiratory alkali poisoning. In addition At the same time, the potassium ions were not replenished in time, so that symptoms such as fatigue, muscle weakness, and arrhythmia. After assisting breathing and subsequent potassium supplementation, three hours later, Xinxin's numbness disappeared with his hands and could walk by himself. "
