A Doctor Saved A Man’s Life By Sucking Urine From His Bladder For 37 Minutes In Mid-Flight Emergency
A doctor saved a man’s life aboard a flight by sucking urine from his bladder for more than half an hour.
The medical emergency happened on a China Southern Airlines flight to New York City. Luckily a surgeon was aboard, and quickly determined that the man had around a liter of urine trapped in his bladder but wasn’t able to urinate.
The doctor rigged a device together using the materials that were available to him, including a portable oxygen mask, a syringe needle, straws from milk boxes and tape.
The surgeon spent the next 37-minutes sucking the urine out of his bladder, and spitting it into an empty wine bottle and a glass.
