Restarting life by going to the countryside to support medical work

Chapter 16 Scoring
Watching Li Yancheng skillfully giving acupuncture to the patient without any hesitation, Zhou Guotao felt a little emotional and shocked.

He could be said to have witnessed this person grow up step by step over the past half month.

From being extremely cautious and careful when giving acupuncture at the beginning to being as smooth as flowing water now, the growth is really too fast.

It was so fast that he couldn't react.

In fact, he overestimated Li Yancheng a bit. It was true that he was fluent, but his skills were only effective against this type of disease, which was exogenous fever caused by wind and cold.

Because of the drop in temperature, he has seen seven or eight patients with colds in succession these few days. The acupuncture points were all the same, so his condition improved a little faster. If acupuncture was required for other diseases, he would still be very cautious.

"Yancheng, I suddenly realized, why is your treatment method different from that of other Chinese medicine doctors?"

Nowadays, many hospitals have integrated internal medicine and traditional Chinese medicine departments. When an internal medicine doctor examines a patient, he usually feels the patient's pulse first. Whether he can feel the pulse is another matter, but he has to follow all the postures.

There are three pure Chinese medicine doctors in the internal medicine department of their First Hospital. Although Zhou Guotao is a Western medicine doctor, he can also take pulses. But as the saying goes, whether he can figure out anything is another matter.

Although he may not necessarily use traditional Chinese medicine to treat illnesses, he is very familiar with the four diagnostic methods of traditional Chinese medicine, namely, observation, auscultation, questioning and palpation, and prescribing medicine to regulate the body after syndrome differentiation.

But Li Yancheng's operating methods are very different from those of Chinese medicine practitioners.

It is the same at the beginning, but after dialectical classification, instead of prescribing medicine, acupuncture is used directly, as if the disease is mainly treated by acupuncture, and the prescription is only used to regulate the body, adding a step in the middle.

But what about the effect? ​​According to his observations over the past half month, the effect is very good.

Although Chinese medicine can cure acute diseases, whether a good Chinese medicine doctor can cure a patient's illness can usually be determined after three prescriptions.

But some patients may think that even the time it takes to take these three doses of medicine is too slow. After arriving at the hospital, many people hope that the doctor is like a god who can cure their illness with just one dose of medicine and make them feel better immediately.

To be honest, this situation basically does not exist, whether it is Chinese medicine or Western medicine. Treating a disease is a process.

But Zhou Guotao discovered that this situation seemed to be broken with Li Yancheng.

His acupuncture can be said to work immediately. Even if it cannot completely cure the disease, it can quickly alleviate the symptoms and then the patient can be treated with medication.

In this way, the patient will accept it very happily.

Facing Zhou Guotao's question, Li Yancheng thought for a moment before answering: "My grandfather's school is different from other Chinese medicine practitioners. His school emphasizes treating the disease first and then regulating the body."

How could he answer? He could only speak according to the inherited memory.

This is indeed how the author of "Acupuncture and Moxibustion Jia Yi Jing" treated patients. The main content of this book is to organically combine the meridian theory, acupoint theory, and diagnosis and treatment methods.

Apart from the fact that the acupuncture techniques have been completely lost since the Three Kingdoms period and he may be the only one who knows how to use them now, the prescriptions he prescribes are actually ordinary and known to many Chinese medicine doctors.

Since it involved factions, Zhou Guotao did not continue to ask questions, fearing that if he asked too much, he would ask about the secrets of other people's factions and be disliked by others.

Traditional Chinese medicine emphasizes inheritance. Even decades later, in the expert column published by some tertiary hospitals, there will be a certain traditional Chinese medicine expert who does not have any particularly high-end academic qualifications or degrees, but it is indicated that his medical skills are inherited from his family or he learned them from a great master.

The Chinese medicine skills and experience inherited by Li Yancheng are very vast. Those symptoms are all pure Chinese medicine syndrome differentiation and classification. He couldn't tell which Western medicine disease they corresponded to until he encountered it.

So he himself couldn't tell exactly what diseases he could treat now. He could only treat each disease as it came across one.

With more treatments, you will know where the corresponding acupoints are for each disease, and your acupuncture speed will naturally improve with practice.

If acupuncture is used to treat some uncommon diseases, he has to spend a long time searching for the corresponding acupoints based on the pulse, so he will naturally be hesitant before inserting the needle.

However, I believe that as time goes by, he will be able to treat patients more and more easily.

It is already the first month of the 19th year since the founding of the People's Republic of China. In the past two days, the number of patients coming to the health center for treatment has gradually increased compared to last month.

Just this morning, Li Yancheng saw six patients, which is more than he saw in the past two or three days.

Although they were all minor ailments, they still gave him some experience.

The peaceful days continued until the afternoon of January 10, when several people from Yishun County suddenly came, saying that they were assessing the town’s cadres and asked residents and employees from various units to rate some of the cadres.

This is a very normal job, but Li Yancheng was dumbfounded when he looked at the score sheet sent to him.

What's going on? He's just here to provide medical support. He doesn't even recognize all the town cadres. How can he be asked to give a grade?

There was a long list of names written on the form, and the only two he knew were the director of the finance office next door and Director Liu of the health center.

This time, the grading was done in a very professional manner, and even Zhou Guotao was called to another office.

After looking at the form handed to him again, Li Yancheng looked up at the young man who handed him the scoring form.

"Comrade, I'm a doctor from the city's No. 1 Hospital who came here to provide medical support. I've been here for less than three months. I don't recognize most of the names on this list. How can I rate this?"

"Going to the countryside to provide medical support is a good thing. In order to solve the problem of difficulty in seeing a doctor at the grassroots level, especially in rural areas, the city leaders have drawn key medical and health personnel from the city to provide care. This kind of thing should be vigorously publicized and promoted.

But you have been here for more than two months, and the town cadres still don't recognize all of you. Doesn't this indirectly illustrate a problem, that is, these people don't take your coming here to provide medical support seriously at all?
It can also be said that they simply don’t take the people’s problems to heart.”

? ? !

Good guy, really good guy!

Li Yancheng felt that his eyeballs almost popped out of their sockets.

This idea is very clear and he can immediately grasp the problem from another angle. This person is really talented.

At the same time, he was a little ashamed. Now, a word he said unintentionally might have dug a big hole for the cadres in Mulin Town.

Zhou Guotao encountered the same situation, but the person on his side did not interpret it the same way as this person. Instead, he simply said that all those he did not know would be given zero points.

At the end, he specifically added that he should not play it safe and that if he didn't know the people, he didn't know them and he should not give them high scores just to save face, as he would later ask specifically about the positions corresponding to each name.

This completely put an end to Comrade Zhou's idea of ​​giving random scores, and he could only give zero scores where they deserved.
