Chinese medicine: When you do things to the extreme

Chapter 239: There is no way to beg!

"It's delicious. This is delicious too. Little Stone, eat more." While eating the boiled tripe, Chen Yu scooped the pig throat with a colander and put it into Zhou Yanqing's seasoning bowl.

"You have to eat quickly. You never know when the phone will ring again." Chen Yu specifically reminded.

Zhou Yanqing is in a critical period of career advancement, and nothing can go wrong during his hospitalization.

Zhou Yanqing picked up the plate and put the beef rolls into the boiling pot again, and replied: "Brother Ning Zhu taught me a mantra before, eat as much as you can, sleep as much as you can, and rest as soon as you can stop thinking."

"The days in the hospital are so sour and refreshing?"

"What day is today?" Zhou Yanqing asked with narrowed eyes.

"October 10, Saturday. I have a day off." Chen Yu looked at Zhou Yanqing with some heartache.

"How long has it been since you had a full night's sleep?"

Zhou Yanqing shook his head: "I don't remember! It seems that I haven't had a full night's sleep since I became a resident."

"Brother Chai is on duty today, I should be able to go back and rest."

Chai Zhonglin had stated in advance that he would not create unnecessary trouble and would not disturb Zhou Yanqing for no reason unless it was a special type of illness.

With Chai Zhonglin's experience in emergency consultation, Zhou Yanqing should be able to have a good sleep.

Fortunately, Zhou Yanqing received a consultation call from the chief resident when he and Chen Yu were on their way home from the hot pot restaurant: "Yanqing, I'm afraid you have to come over. There's a patient with right lower limb injury."

"I was referred from the Provincial People's Hospital. Come and see if I need amputation." Chai Zhonglin hung up the phone without saying a single word.

Chen Yu said: "Master, go to Xiangya Hospital immediately. I will change the destination."

"Then you change it." The driver was a local. He was about to go to Wuyi Avenue, but he turned the steering wheel left and went straight along Furong Middle Road.

After getting off the car, Zhou Yanqing ran straight to the emergency department. Chen Yu looked at Zhou Yanqing's back and gave a sweet bitter smile.

Not to mention anything else, Zhou Yanqing is busy all because of work, not doing other messy things. This is a good man.

He can make money, has ability, fame, and treats her well, so she can't ask for too much.

Chen Yu chose to go to Zhou Yanqing's rented house and help him clean up...

"What's going on?" After arriving, Zhou Yanqing asked Yan Huanyu, who had just gotten off work less than fourteen hours ago and was called by Chai Zhonglin.

Yan Huanyu had already seen the patient and gave feedback to Chai Zhonglin. At this moment, Chai Zhonglin was explaining something emotionally in front of the patient and his family.

Yan Huanyu explained: "It's a serious injury, and we have to amputate it. There's nothing we can do about it."

"The damage has spread from the middle of the thigh to the upper part of the tibia. It's impossible to save it!"

Zhou Yanqing frowned!
Destructive injuries and multiple arterial defects in a single lower limb, "destructive injuries", are terminal diseases often encountered in orthopedics. The current level of medical care is completely helpless.

Zhou Yanqing patted Yan Huanyu on the shoulder and said, "Go over and help persuade him to have his limb amputated. Saving his life is the most important thing!"

After Zhou Yanqing walked in, he found that the patient's family member was a 'co-worker' of the same age as him, and not a real family member.

"Doctor, you can't amputate, you can't amputate!"

"This is my cousin. His wife has a weak constitution and cannot work. Now he is the only one who supports the family. His mother has high blood pressure and diabetes, and the children are still young, they are still in high school!~"

"Please think of another solution. I beg you to think of a solution." The man who spoke was in his fifties, with dry lips.

The big, rough hands tried to grab Chai Zhonglin's sleeves!
"It's not that I didn't try. You just heard me call the three professors in our orthopedics department: Professor Tan from the hand surgery department, Professor Tang from the trauma surgery department, and Professor Liao from our joint surgery department."

"No way? Did I tell you in advance that there is no way?"

"If you keep dragging it out, it won't be a question of whether you can save your legs, but your life!"

Chai Zhonglin turned his head decisively and said, "Yan Huanyu, are the materials for the interview and signature ready?"

"Let him sign and perform the operation as soon as possible!"

"It's not a good idea to drag it here."

"It is the traffic police's job to decide who is responsible. We are only responsible for saving lives and treating illnesses!"

"Hurry up and sign it!"

"If you can't make a decision, we will notify the police and the chief on duty!" Chai Zhonglin shouted at the kneeling middle-aged man.

He is not the patient's immediate family member. If the patient agrees and the family member cannot be present, he can sign on his behalf.

But if he hesitated, the hospital would have to go through emergency procedures!
The patient was still conscious at the moment. His face was pale due to massive blood loss, his lips were black and blue, his eyes were red, and he closed his eyes and shook his head: "Doctor, I don't want amputation."

"If I lose my legs, my family will be ruined!~"

"I was drunk while riding my bike, and the other party won't compensate me!"

Chai Zhonglin said: "I don't know about this, and I can't control it. Do you want a broken leg or a whole body?"

"I'm telling you clearly, you can't save your leg!"

"Delaying time will only lead to death. It won't have any other meaning. You were sent to the Provincial Hospital before, right?"

"What did they tell you? Why didn't they dare to perform limb-saving surgery on you?"

"Just because we can't do it, we can't protect it here!"

The patient's hands were clenched and his teeth were clenched.

"Call the chief on-duty phone, Professor Zhang Hao, you have also seen that it is the patients and their families who are wasting time here. I have made it very clear."

"The leg cannot be saved, it has to be amputated!" Chai Zhonglin said very cautiously and ruthlessly to Professor Zhang Hao in the emergency room of the emergency department.

Then he turned to look at the patient again: "It's no use for you to pull me, and kneeling to anyone will do no good!"

"If there is still a glimmer of hope for your leg, we will naturally try our best, but as you can see at the scene, it is impossible to save it!"

"It's impossible, not a one percent chance or something like that, do you understand?"

"Even if you don't want to have your limb amputated, you still have to sign!" said Chai Zhonglin.

Yan Huanyu picked up two signed consent forms for the interview, and then took the red mud from the emergency room: "The one on my left hand is for amputation."

"The one on your right is a document for refusing treatment. Please put your fingerprint on it!"

"Doctor, is there really no other way?" The middle-aged man shook his head vigorously.

"There's nothing I can do!" Yan Huanyu replied very straightforwardly.

"There is no way."

"Sign or not?"

"If you sign, there is a high probability that no one will die. If you don't sign and drag it out, there is a 100% chance that someone will die!"

"This is your life."

"I...I sign..." The patient reached out and took the pen from Yan Huanyu's hand with trembling hands.

Zhou Yanqing watched the whole process and could do nothing.

……

The amputation went very smoothly. In less than half an hour, a perfect catfish-mouth-shaped wound appeared on the patient's right limb stump.

After the operation, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, except the patient himself, whose eyes were lifeless.

Yan Huanyu, who had just finished the operation, advised: "Wang Hai, don't think too much, the operation is done, it was very successful!"

"You are no longer in danger now."

"As long as you are alive, you still have a chance for everything."

"Your wife is outside too. She supports you!" Wang Hai's eyes were still empty.

Yan Huanyu continued, "Your condition is not serious now. You only need to stay in the emergency department's observation ward for two days and take antibiotics before you can go home and rest."

"As long as the wound doesn't get infected, it will heal quickly."

"Can I really recover?" Although Wang Hai's face looked a little rosier than before, he was very regretful at the moment, and his eyes were dull.

"It certainly can."

"Life is more important than legs...at least you can always be with your children and your wife." Yan Huanyu couldn't save his legs, let alone his life!
Even Yan Huanyu felt deep down in his heart that you deserved it for riding a bike after drinking and for taking full responsibility for getting hit!
But on the surface, Yan Huanyu still wanted to persuade the other party.

All people have the right to life.

……

After sending the patient to his wife, the couple transferred to the emergency surgery ward. Now Wang Hai is just an ordinary postoperative patient and does not even need postoperative monitoring or oxygen inhalation.

Yan Huanyu explained: "Yanqing, I told Brother Chai before that he didn't need to call you, but he called you anyway."

This surgery and treatment is very simple, there is no other way.

Not anywhere in the world!

If he is sent to any place, the only option is amputation.

"It's okay, Brother Yan. If there's nothing else, I'll go back first." Zhou Yanqing didn't feel too emotional.

There is no patient who does not suffer after suffering from illness, it’s just that the degree of suffering is different.

There is nothing that can be done about it. No one can do anything about it.

This is the helplessness of medical technology!
"it is good!"

"Yanqing, our department encounters seven or eight such patients every month, so there's no need to make a fuss."

"If you are on duty and encounter a family member making unreasonable demands, do three things well."

"First, call the general duty officer, please ask the security department!"

"Second, if there are police officers present, let them be witnesses."

"Third, the emergency room is the first responsible department. Let the professors of the emergency department come forward. We are just consulting and assisting in diagnosis and treatment."

"We can only cure diseases, but we cannot heal people." Yan Huanyu patiently warned Zhou Yanqing.

"Okay, thank you, Brother Yan."

"Brother Yan, if you have nothing to do tomorrow, let's go out for dinner together?" Zhou Yanqing took the initiative to invite.

"Okay?" Yan Huanyu yawned and walked out.

As they walked out of the emergency operating room, they heard Wang Hai's wife comforting him in the observation ward: "If your son's grades are not good, let him stop studying!"

"He is willing too. My sister has good grades but is thin and weak. If she doesn't continue her studies, she won't even be able to afford a job..."

"Let's go back to our hometown and see if we can start a small business."

Hearing these words, Yan Huanyu, who had missed the door, turned sideways and looked back.

"uh-huh?"

"Behind a family-oriented man, there is usually a very virtuous woman." Yan Huanyu summed up to Zhou Yanqing.

"It can be seen that my sister-in-law must be very virtuous." Zhou Yanqing praised her!
Yan Huanyu hurriedly shook his head and said, "Your sister-in-law is not virtuous at all. She is lazy and doesn't know how to distinguish grains!"

"At home, I cook and she takes care of the housework. She loves shopping, but she knows her own financial situation and won't buy things recklessly."

Yan Huanyu is not very old, only about 31 years old, which means he looks a little more mature than Zhou Yanqing.

With thick eyebrows, big eyes and a strong body, he looks like a traditional orthopedic surgeon. He was saying bad things about his wife, but the smile on Yan Huanyu's face betrayed him.

After saying goodbye to Yan Huanyu, Zhou Yanqing looked at the time. After taking off his white coat, he stood at the corner of the emergency department and sent a message to Chen Yu.

At the entrance of the emergency department, people of all kinds were rushing around.

Some were begging on their knees, some were begging while holding their children, some were squatting down to give change, and there were many more indifferent passers-by coming and going.

"I'll be right back."

"A patient who had an amputation came." Zhou Yanqing replied.

"Bring you some milk tea."

"I...can I not want it?" Chen Yu replied hesitantly.

"Okay? Then I'll order one for myself." Zhou Yanqing advised the other party tactfully.

"Then bring me a cup. I want Matcha Bodhi. If you have the Fengqi version, buy the Fengqi version. If not, buy the Oolong version."

"70% sweet, less ice." Chen Yu has a deep memory of the taste of various milk teas.

After Zhou Yanqing made an OK gesture, he suddenly heard someone crying and walking away from him.

"Brother, Dad is gone."

"Aortic dissection. They said it was discovered too late. If we had arrived half an hour earlier, there might have been a 40 percent survival rate."

"Come back soon!" said a middle-aged man, looking up.

"Our home is a bit far from the hospital. When I bought the house, I didn't consider that Dad would have such a serious illness, right?"

"I'm going to buy some shrouds first..."

Middle age is fading away.

At the same time, Zhou Yanqing also heard someone in the emergency department kneeling at the door of the emergency room and thanking them: "Thank you doctor, thank you nurse, thank you."

"Mom, Mom, can you hear me?"

"Mom, I'm here. I'm here... Where are you taking my mom..."

"ICU, hurry to the ICU door. The patient is only temporarily out of danger, and needs continued life support and monitoring..." A group of people pushed the cart away.

Only then did Zhou Yanqing rush back.

After passing an intersection, I looked at the gate of the emergency department of Xiangya Hospital from afar. It looked like a devil's mouth!

As long as someone pushes in, life or death will be unpredictable.

As long as someone walks in, he becomes moody.

It looks like hell and is the place with the highest mortality rate in the entire Shashi.

However, without it, many more people would have died.

Being powerless is not a shame for a person or a place!

……

That night, Zhou Yanqing almost took off his pants.

But if he is not present for a finger replantation operation, the associate professor or professor on duty will have to go to the emergency operating room in person.

When Zhou Yanqing came running over, Chai Zhonglin had already very skillfully completed the signing of the limb transplantation agreement and was just waiting for Zhou Yanqing to start.

Seeing Zhou Yanqing's slightly annoyed expression, Chai Zhonglin asked curiously and gossipingly, "What's wrong, Yanqing?"

But in my heart I said, don’t you love to do it?
"Nothing, Brother Chai." Zhou Yanqing shook his head and thought to himself that Chen Yu must hate him to death right now...
