“You bastard.”Zuo cidian glanced at the name on the phone again and cursed before he hung up.
Zheng Pei put down the phone with a bitter smile on his face. He was already a senior resident doctor when Ling ran entered the hospital. Last year, he even passed the attending physician exam and became a junior attending physician in the Emergency Medical Center. Usually, when he met Zuo Cidian, the latter would also guarantee respect for him.
However, Zuo Cidian’s tone was not good at the moment, and he was even displeased. Zheng Pei could not do anything about it. He knew that he was in the wrong, and he could not bear any resentment.
After all, CPR was not some godly skill. There was no guarantee that he could save a patient whose heart had stopped beating.
In theory, as long as the operation was normal, there would not be much difference between good and bad CPR. The key was still to look at the patient’s own condition. The patients who were in a relatively good condition and had a better heart condition had a higher chance of coming back to life.
Therefore, calling Ling ran over at this time meant that Zheng Pei had thrown the hot potato in his hand to Ling ran. This was a completely different concept from calling the CPR team over.
No doctor wanted to face such a problem of saving the big and saving the small. In fact, there was no such thing as losing one person and saving the other. It was more likely that one person would die and two people would die.
If it was a different environment and a different patient, Zheng Pei would definitely not have made the call just now.
If the patient was bleeding heavily to save his life, it would be normal for him to look for Ling ran. However, CPR did not have an immediate effect.
Even though Ling ran had hosted many ultra-long CPR sessions and had considerable experience and even battle achievements, statistically speaking, how high was the success rate of a doctor who was good at CPR compared to a normal doctor, there were no actual statistics.
Zheng Pei only thought of Ling ran at the first moment.
Based on the information he observed and heard on a daily basis, he could vaguely feel that Ling ran’s CPR had a higher success rate.
This was just a kind of personal understanding without any evidence, but in this situation, Ling ran was really a life-saving straw.
Even if he was blamed after the incident, Zheng Pei could not care less for the time being.
Zheng Pei’s face was dark. He lowered his head and looked at the pregnant woman on the hospital bed.
This was a slightly plump woman. Her face was white and round, and she looked about thirty years old. Before she came to the hospital, she had put on light makeup, and it was very shiny.
Her abdomen was high and bulging. There were no obvious stretch marks. It was obvious that she had regular care.
Zheng Pei did not know her, but when he saw this woman, he always unconsciously substituted her for his sister, sister, or mother.
This woman should be quite happy and happy during her pregnancy. The living conditions at home were also probably good.
After a difficult 40 weeks of pregnancy, she should be buying baby supplies now and looking forward to the arrival of the baby.
No one would have expected that the danger that threatened the mother and baby at the same time would suddenly come.
No, this couldn’t even be called a danger, it could even be called a disaster.
Zheng Pei’s face was cold.
The experience of practicing medicine for several years was long and short.
For doctors, Zheng Pei, who had just entered the ranks of attending physicians, had only just begun his career.
But for an ordinary adult, his nearly ten years of professional life allowed him to have sufficient judgment and understanding of everything in front of him
Inviting Ling ran over was the greatest chance for this woman and the baby in her womb to survive.
It was also the best chance to save two families. Perhaps it was the best chance for several families.
If they offended anyone because of this, then they should offend them.
Zheng Pei gritted his teeth and said to the few people who were performing CPR, “Doctor Ling should be rushing over now. Everyone, hold on.”
“Okay.”The few doctors lowered their heads.
There were rules to inviting senior doctors over. For example, in the current situation, it was reasonable to invite the doctors from other departments for emergency consultations or the associate chief physicians from the same department to come over.
It was a little too much to ask Ling ran to come over.
When they considered the complexity of this patient, these young doctors, who were even more inexperienced than Zheng Pei, became even more worried.
“Doctor Ling, did you really agree?”The resident doctor, who was on Zheng Pei’s daily shift, asked again to confirm.
Zheng Pei nodded.
“We’ve already performed CPR for almost twenty minutes.”
“Do you have any other tricks up your sleeve?”Zheng Pei’s voice became a little harsher.
The resident doctor immediately shut his mouth and did not say a word.
In the current situation, if anyone had any tricks up their sleeves, there was no way they could hide it.
“Let me do it.”Zheng Pei was also feeling frustrated. He directly replaced the doctor who was performing CPR and climbed up on his own. He crossed his hands and counted to 01,02,03.
A standard CPR required 100 compressions per minute, and each time, the pressure had to be at least three centimeters deep. The intensity of the external chest compressions was obvious to the Doctor’s physical burden.
Zheng Pei had already performed two rounds of compressions. When he went up again this time, sweat quickly oozed out from his back.
“Speed up a little.”It was unknown when, but Ling ran had already brought people to the resuscitation room downstairs.
Zheng Pei’s entire body tensed up, but soon after, he relaxed a little..
“Speed up a little more. If you can’t do it, then change the person.”Ling ran’s voice followed. The content was not very pleasing, but Zheng Pei and the others could not care less.
“I have plenty of strength now.”Zheng Pei laughed self-deprecatingly before he started pressing his head down.
In his resuscitation team, Zheng Pei was the doctor with the best skills. Now that Ling ran was here, Zheng Pei did not have any thoughts of conserving his strength.
The young doctor beside him reported his heart rate, blood pressure, and other numbers loudly. Ling ran seemed to be listening, but he was not listening. He paid more attention to Zheng Pei’s movements.
The core of all the problems was that the pregnant woman’s heart had stopped beating. Once this problem was solved, only by solving this problem could they solve their current predicament.
“Did young Zheng call you over?”Doctor Zhou walked over from the other side of the resuscitation room with a solemn expression.
“Yes,”Ling ran answered, but he turned his head and asked, “Is the doctor from the OB/GYN department here?”
“Yes, I’m here.”A doctor in his thirties stood out. He looked ordinary and had no reputation. Ling ran did not have much of an impression of him.
“How long do you think the fetus can last?”Ling ran asked.
“A fetus at forty weeks of term…”the attending physician from the OB/GYN department shook his head slightly and said, “From the perspective of the fetus, it will definitely be dissected now. The survival rate will be the highest.”
However, performing a caesarean section now was equivalent to giving up on the mother.
Ling ran naturally knew that this was a difficult choice, but he did not show it. He thought about it and said, “The patient underwent cardiopulmonary resuscitation for nearly 20 minutes? We will make the final decision after 30 minutes.”
“Doctor Ling, with all due respect, with the patient’s current condition, it is very likely that the fetus will die after the heart stops beating for 30 minutes,”the attending physician of the Department of Obstetrics and gynecology braced himself and said.
“Even if we perform a caesarean section now, we still can’t guarantee the survival rate of the fetus, right?”Ling ran asked in return.
The attending physician from the Department of Obstetrics and gynecology did not want to resist, but he had no choice but to continue, “But… but, the survival rate is definitely higher now. I’m not saying that I’m recommending a Caesarean section, I’m just…”
“Shirking responsibility?”Zuo Cidian had just caught his breath when he said coldly.
“No one wants to encounter the current situation…”the attending physician of the obstetrics and gynecology department deliberately glared at Zheng Pei and said, “20 minutes is indeed a long time. Moreover, another 10 minutes might not be enough to save mother…”
The air in the resuscitation room seemed to have become sticky.
Many doctors would never encounter such a situation in their entire lives. However, the doctors who encountered such a situation today had extremely complicated feelings in their hearts.
Fortunately, no one brought up the idea of asking for their family members’opinions.
Ling ran was silent for a few seconds.
Then, his expression became calm once again. “We will perform CPR for another ten minutes. Doctors from the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, please send your best doctors over now. You must be able to arrive within ten minutes.”
The attending physician from the Department of Obstetrics and gynecology still wanted to argue. “Doctor Ling…”
Ling ran said slowly, “If this fetus can survive, I believe that he or she will be willing to risk their lives to give the mother another ten minutes.”
After he said that, Ling ran no longer had any intention of asking for advice. He directly said to Zheng PEI, “It’s my turn now. The countdown is ten seconds.”
