VIENTIANE, Nov. 9 -- Members of the 7th medical expert team dispatched by the Chinese People's Liberation Army (PLA) to Laos were awarded the Grade III Medal of Valor and the Medal of Friendship by the Lao People's Army. The medal-awarding ceremony was held in Vientiane, the capital of Laos, on November 8.


According to the Military Attaché's Office of the Chinese Embassy in Laos, the Chinese military medical expert team overcame the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic to carry out medical assistance work at the Military Hospital 103 of the Lao People's Army and made outstanding contributions.


The Chinese military medical experts devoted themselves wholeheartedly to the treatment of patients and training of medical staff in Laos, and helped improve the diagnosis, treatment and nursing level of the Lao Military Hospital 103, said Lao Defense Minister General Chansamone Chanyalath, member of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee of the Lao People's Revolutionary Party and deputy prime minister of Laos, in a document signed by him on awarding medals to the Chinese military medical team.


Sun Dongdong, head of the Chinese military medical team, said that they will continue to devote themselves to the assistance work, focus on both treating and teaching, and make every effort to safeguard the health of the Lao military and civilians, so as to further contribute to the friendship between the two countries and the two militaries.


The Lao Military Hospital 103 is a comprehensive hospital established with assistance from the Chinese Ministry of National Defense. Since 2019, the Chinese PLA has been dispatching medical teams to the hospital, where the Chinese military medical experts have carried out a series of medical-aid activities such as academic exchanges, medical knowledge popularization lectures, and free medical consultations. They also helped the doctors of the hospital complete a number of major surgical operations.

ALI, Nov.14 -- In early winter, a regiment under the PLA Xinjiang Military Command stationed on Ali Plateau, China’s Xizang Autonomous Region, promoted the installment of hyperbaric oxygen chambers for border troops in plateau areas, in a bid to support the troops' duty performance and training exercise.


A hyperbaric oxygen chamber can supply oxygen to eight service members at the same time. As soon as they enter the cabin, air will be pumped into the chamber to increase in-door pressure, and their symptoms of altitude reaction can be significantly relieved when the chamber pressure reaches up to the same level as that at an elevation of about 2,000 meters.


While undergoing oxygen therapy, the service members can communicate with the outside through walkie-talkies, and have thorough relaxation of both body and mind by adjusting the music system inside.


Meanwhile, specific treatments are provided to different persons based on their health conditions and service years in the plateau areas, so as to ensure oxygen therapy efficiency. Special attention is paid to the health care of recruits who have just come to the plateau, in a bid to effectively shorten their plateau adaptation period.


"Compared with previous time, the present oxygen therapy is more targeted and has more stable effect," said Sergeant Second Class Wang Dun.


Next, the regiment will give better play to the role of the hyperbaric oxygen chamber, with the health status of each service member registered and tracked, to keep stepping up efforts to prevent the occurrence and development of diseases.
