“When I was in provincial city, I had a consultation with a patient.” Gao Shaojie saw Su Yun put away the film, pondered for a moment, and then said.
“What kind of patient are you consulting?” Su Yun asked.
“He has a cardiac trauma and cardiac tamponade. When he was sent to the hospital, it had been 14 minutes or 16 minutes.” Gao Shaojie said simply.
As soon as the topic was out, everyone in the room, except Lin Yuan, knew what Gao Shaojie wanted to say.
This was a medical paradox.
The patient was resuscitated with all his might and could recover his basic vital signs. However, due to the prolonged lack of oxygen, he would definitely suffer from brain death and become a vegetable.
There were many definitions of success. It had breathing, a heartbeat, the ability to eat, defecate, but no thought. Was this considered living?
Was it necessary to save the patient that Gao Shaojie had mentioned? Every doctor had their own answer to this question.
Many doctors would try their best to save the patient at all costs. In addition, many doctors would give a perfunctory rescue after knowing that the heart had stopped beating for so long. They would give the patient’s family a psychological comfort and finally declare him a clinical death.
Many patients ‘family members would refuse to receive further treatment, and many more would take care of the patient carefully until the patient developed a serious lung infection and died.
Whether to let go or not, how to judge and how to do it, could only be based on the mentality and judgment of the receiving doctor and the patient’s family members at that time.
“The patient was saved in the end, but he was brain dead. My family can’t accept the fact that I’m in a vegetative state. My parents are old, and my brother is working in the South, who has already settled down there. ” Gao Shaojie was very cautious and wanted to persuade boss Zheng indirectly. He didn’t say the result, but explained the situation of the patient’s family.
Zheng Ren knew what Gao Shaojie was going to say.
He shook his head, took the film bag from Su Yun, and arranged the films according to the order Wen xiaonuan had arranged them.
Seeing boss Zheng’s expression and actions, Gao Shaojie was relieved.
In fact, this was a very basic judgment. He was afraid that boss Zheng would be so arrogant that he would disregard everything and want to complete such a difficult surgery.
It was still the same sentence, if it was during normal times, it would be fine. But now was the judging period for the Nobel Prize, so at the very least, he had to spend this year as quietly as possible.
In the future, there would be a lot of time waiting for boss Zheng to show off his skills. Was there really no way to do it? It was true for others, but not for boss Zheng. At least, that was what Gao Shaojie thought.
“Teacher Gao, what happened after that?” Lin Yuan asked curiously.
When it came to professional quality, Lin Yuan almost crushed in-service training doctors, such as Gu Xiaoran. However, when it came to clinical experience, Lin Yuan was extremely lacking.
“Later on, the patient’s parents could barely accept the fact that he was in a vegetative state. A few months later, he sued the doctor in charge. ” “He said that the child was not treated in time and ended up like this,” Gao Shaojie said.
Lin Yuan had been back for a few months, and she knew that the situation at home was completely different from when she was at Harvard. This ending was also within reason, and there was nothing to doubt.
“Let’s not talk about this. Let’s go out for dinner tonight. ” Zheng Ren said as he patted the stack of documents that was dozens of centimeters thick after he had sorted out Little Rock’s information.
“It’s rare for an old man like you to take the initiative to go out for a meal. ” “What do you want to eat?” Su Yun asked.
“As you wish.” However, Zheng Ren did not get someone to throw the information away as Su Yun had expected. From the looks of it, he was trying to preserve the information.
Knock, knock, knock. At this moment, someone knocked on the door.
“Boss Zheng is here, help me take a look at the film.” Feng Jianguo’s voice came.
“Brother Feng, what wind blew you here?” Su Yun chuckled and asked.
“Someone in my hometown asked me to see a doctor. I didn’t understand it, so I came to see boss Zheng.” Feng Jianguo said.
As he spoke, he walked in and saw the documents on the desk that were tens of centimeters thick. He sighed and said,””The patient’s family is so considerate. It must have taken them more than ten years to keep so much information.”
“A little more than half a year.” Zheng Ren said.
“…” Feng Jianguo realized something and immediately stopped the topic.
“Wait a moment, brother Feng. I …” Zheng Ren looked at the information and was a little worried.
The mountain of information could not be placed in the doctor’s office. If anyone took it, glanced at it, and then did not put it back, the information would be gone.
It was like how a doctor’s atomic pen could be lost at any time. One day, there were four or five atomic pens in the pocket of his white uniform, but the next day, there was not a single one.
“Boss, you don’t even want it at home, so why are you still keeping it?” Su Yun said unhappily.
“Yes.” Zheng Ren didn’t comment. He didn’t want to cause a dispute over this matter. After a few seconds, he took out his phone and made a call.
Su Yun looked at Zheng Ren in disdain.
“Cui Lao, how have you been?” he asked.
“Don’t say that. I’m still waiting for you to go to work and accompany you on your house calls. “
“I have some information here, but I don’t have a place to put it …”
“Okay, I’ll contact Zhou Litao.”
After saying that, Zheng Ren hung up the phone, and there was a storm brewing between his brows.
“How’s Cui Lao?” Su Yun asked with concern.
The two of them had visited cui Lao again recently. The old man was even weaker, but he was still holding on.
In cui Lao’s own words, he wanted to see Xiao Zheng give a speech on the stage for the Nobel Prize. This could be considered a long-cherished Wish of a Lifetime, but he didn’t know if he would have the chance to fulfill it.
“Listening to his words, his mind is still clear.” Zheng Ren said,”I’ll find some time to visit cui Lao.”
“That … Lin Yuan, Xiao ran, find a cart and help me pile up the information.” Zheng Ren arranged for his underling to do the chores, then asked Feng Jianguo,””Brother Feng, what patient?”
“It’s a 24-year-old male patient. I think …” Feng Jianguo said with some hesitation.
It was as if there was something that he couldn’t say.
“What’s the matter? brother Feng, why are you hesitating?” Su Yun said in disdain.
“Sigh, I might have seen it wrong. Boss Zheng, doctor su, please help me check.”
Feng Jianguo picked up the film bag, found the two films with the earliest and latest dates, and inserted them into the film reader. His expression was a little puzzled, as if he was suffering from constipation.
Su Yun came over and stood beside Zheng Ren to take a look at the X-ray. She was stunned. “She’s … Pregnant?”
“Yup!” After hearing Su Yun’s words, Feng Jianguo clapped his hands and said excitedly,””I said it looked like she was pregnant, but because it was a man, the time difference between the two scans was more than eight years, so I didn’t dare to continue thinking about it.”
A man … Pregnant … For eight years …
Lin Yuan, who was packing his things, happened to hear this sentence. She immediately came over and watched the film.
In the abdominal cavity, near the lower edge of the liver and the right kidney, there was an image of a curled up baby.
