Check-in at the Hospital: The First Surgery Shocked the Nation! Chapter 227 - 148: Late-Night Car Crash, Degloving Injury!

In the ICU,

Qin Feng and Zhou Xianren arrived outside the monitoring room together.

"Old Zhou, Xiaoxin, what brings you here tonight?"

Director Qi, who was on duty tonight in the ICU, was quite surprised to see the two of them.

"I’m here to check on Chai Zhongjun. How is he doing?"

Qin Feng looked through the glass at the hospital bed inside the room and asked with a smile.

"Rest assured, he’s doing well. The surgery was very successful, and he’s recovering nicely now."

Director Qi nodded, looking quite satisfied, and suddenly turned his head curiously to look at him,

"I must say, for a ruptured aorta to recover so well after two and a half hours is truly a miracle! Oh, by the way, I heard from Zhang Fan from cardiothoracic surgery that you used acupuncture to keep this patient alive?"

"Acupuncture to keep him alive? What’s going on?"

At this, even Zhou Xianren was taken aback, casting a surprised look as well.

"Actually, it’s not that mysterious. It was just ventricular fibrillation, and we couldn’t use a defibrillator."

Qin Feng explained with a grin.

"Ventricular fibrillation without a defibrillator? How does acupuncture stop that?"

Zhou Xianren imdiately beca energized by the question and continued to inquire further.

Then Qin Feng carefully explained the process and the principle, and the two of them looked at each other, both seeing the shock and confusion in each other’s eyes.

Using acupuncture to unblock the major ridian points throughout the body and finally directly stimulate the heart’s arteries with an electric shock to stop the ventricular fibrillation.

Although theoretically, it’s all about using electrical pulses to affect the heart.

But using acupuncture to conduct electricity — it’s sothing they had never heard of in their decades of dical education.

Even among those authentic traditional Chinese dicine masters they had t, none were so fantastical!

It’s simply a miracle!

Seeing the shocked expressions on their faces, Qin Feng couldn’t help but chuckle slightly.

Of course, he was also partly gambling on his thod!

But he had bet correctly!

Among the ancient acupuncture techniques passed down, there indeed were instances where acupuncture was used to stimulate a heart that had stopped or was beating too rapidly.

There were successes, but also failures.

And it wasn’t until late Qing dynasty that electrical stimulation experints were actually conducted.

Plus, given Chai Zhongjun’s urgent condition at the ti, there was no way out if he hadn’t done it this way!

This was also Qin Feng’s first ti attempting sothing with so confidence.

The outco was within the range of his expectations.

"Director Qin, oh Director Qin, you have truly opened our eyes!"

Director Qi couldn’t help but shake his head in amazent, his face full of admiration,

"You have no idea, when Old Zhang told about this, he was so excited, it was as if he was happier than when he got promoted to departnt head."

Qin Feng just smiled without saying a word.

"Qin Feng, can your thod of acupuncture defibrillation be summarized into a complete ergency response system?"

Zhou Xianren asked eagerly, grabbing him quickly.

"A complete ergency response system?"

Qin Feng was taken aback by these words, a bright glint flashed in his eyes.

Yes!

That’s actually a great idea!

If this acupuncture defibrillation thod is successfully trialed clinically, it can be widely promoted throughout the hospital.

Especially in ergency and cardiac surgery, it’s extrely useful!

"There should be hope, but it requires a lot of clinical samples to back it up."

Qin Feng nodded at Zhou Xianren’s eager gaze and said in a deep voice.

"That’s great!"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Xianren excitedly clapped his hands and spun around in joy,

"If that’s the case, then we can safely and effectively rescue patients who can’t use a defibrillator!"

"This thod is great, Qin Feng, if possible, report it to the hospital administration eting, and I’ll wholeheartedly support it!"

Director Qi imdiately nodded in agreent, smiling with great joy,

"If this can be applied for as a national invention, it’ll definitely make your na famous across the country!"

Hearing Director Qi’s words, Qin Feng’s heart couldn’t help but be stirred.

National invention?

This kind of dical invention could absolutely stun the dical community nationwide and even worldwide!

It’s simply the most effective rescue thod in the ergency departnt!

And it’s a Chinese dicine thod, there’s no better way to vindicate and promote Chinese dicine than this.

It can be done!

"Alright!"

Qin Feng imdiately agreed,

"I will quickly implent this ergency project and establish a complete acupuncture defibrillation thod."

The eyes of all three were filled with excitent and anticipation.

Who would’ve thought that just by visiting the ICU, due to a single sentence from Director Qi and Zhou Xianren’s hopes, a significant dical ergency thod could be ford.

It surpassed everyone’s expectations!

Shortly after,

the three discussed briefly, and Qin Feng and Zhou Xianren left.

Just returning to ergency, and without having a chance to sit down yet.

Suddenly,

the phone at the nurse’s station rang.

"First Hospital of the City..."

....

In Jiangcheng City’s downtown,

at half-past ten on the roadside,

a woman wearing a ituan delivery uniform sat next to a boy about seven or eight years old.

The delivery scooter was parked by the roadside, and the mother and son sat on the edge of the road, each holding a multi-grain pancake in hand.

"Dear son, if you’re hungry, hurry up and eat."

The woman gently patted the little boy’s head, her face full of affection and tenderness.

"Mm!"

The little boy nodded and started eating in big bites,

"Mommy... you eat too."

"Mommy’s not hungry, after you finish eating, I’ll take you back and let Grandma put you to bed. School starts tomorrow."

The woman shook her head, a warm smile on her face, as she glanced at the ti on her phone.

The little boy seed very hungry and soon finished the pancake cleanly.

"I’m done eating."

The little boy drank a few sips of water and contentedly patted his belly.

"Alright, I’ll take you ho."

The woman stood up, pushed over the bicycle, and the little boy climbed onto the back seat as they headed ho.

"Mommy, when are you coming back?"

"Mommy will co back after delivering a few more orders. Don’t wait up for , go to bed early, okay?"

"Mm, got it."

The woman contentedly and confidently rode the bike, but seeing her son being so sensible, she felt a pang of grievance and sorrow in her heart.

A furious man’s face appeared before her eyes, along with fierce curses.

If it weren’t for that man leaving abruptly for a mistress outside, slamming the door and refusing to return for two or three months,

No matter how she reached out, he wouldn’t co back.

Even when she humbly begged, she couldn’t move his cold heart.

After all, if they divorced, it would be the child who suffered.

She didn’t want her son to grow up in a single-parent family; it would be such a huge psychological blow to him!

Amidst the anger and grievances, she saw the green light ahead start to flash, turning to yellow.

The woman, in a mont of distraction, realized it was too late to brake and accelerated straight through.

Screech~

At that mont,

a light suddenly flashed, followed by an ear-piercing screech of brakes.

The woman saw a car rushing from her left, and before she could react, she felt herself violently struck, being flung into the air.

Even though the car slamd on the brakes, it was too close to stop in ti.

Through the car window, it could be seen that the woman had been knocked away while the little boy on the back seat should have also been flung out but miraculously stopped midair, then fell heavily to the ground with the bicycle.

At that mont, there weren’t too many or too few people on the road, but the screech and crash drew everyone’s attention.

The car finally stopped, and the driver hurriedly opened the door, coming down to witness the scene, utterly dumbfounded.

With trembling hands, he pulled out his phone to dial 110 and 120.

...

Ring ring ring~

"City First Hospital."

"There’s been a traffic accident on Yellow River Road in the city center. A woman and a child were hit; the woman lost consciousness, the boy has fractures in his legs and arms and an avulsion injury on the foot, arriving in 10 minutes!"

The urgent voice of the rescue personnel ca through the phone, startling the head ergency nurse!

"Okay!"

Click!

Hanging up, she quickly ran towards the ergency room.

"Traffic accident! A woman and a child! The woman is unconscious, the child has multiple fractures and an avulsion injury; be quick to get ready to receive them!"

With a loud shout, the nurses on duty imdiately got up to start preparing ergency equipnt.

The head nurse rushed back to her office and pushed the door open.

The attending doctors on ergency duty tonight were Xiao Jing and another male doctor.

"Dr. Xiao, there’s a patient coming in, a traffic accident, adult unconscious, child with multiple fractures and avulsion injury."

"What?!"

Xiao Jing sprang up, her expression drastically changing as she rushed out,

"Contact orthopedics, neurosurgery, internal dicine, and cardiothoracic surgery for a consultation imdiately."

"Already contacted."

The head nurse nodded and said.

Traffic accident,

one of the most likely incidents to cause multiple complex injuries.

Injuries from vehicle impacts, unless they are minor scrapes, usually result in complex harm primarily involving fractures and secondarily affecting organs, brain, nerves, etc.

They are extrely difficult to deal with!

The avulsion injury ntioned by the head nurse is an exceedingly cruel injury!

Avulsion injuries, also known as degloving injuries, involve the circumferential loss of nerve-supplied skin and tactile surface. They often co with nerve, vessel, and tendon avulsions.

Simplified, it refers to when limbs are crushed and the wheels’ rotation creates a strong gripping and pulling force, causing the skin to separate from the muscle deep fascia, resulting in a cavity-like change or skin rupturing and tearing away.

It directly tears skin, muscle, nerves apart and rips them off the bone in pieces!

(Strongly do not recomnd searching for avulsion injuries, it will ruin your appetite!)

It’s an injury that makes anyone shudder with horror!

In cases of traffic accidents causing avulsion injuries, the likelihood of amputation is extrely high!

So when doctors hear the words avulsion injury, even experienced veterans get tense.

Because this type of injury can be minor or severe, and in serious cases, it can be utterly terrifying!

Woo woo woo~ woo woo woo~ woo woo woo~

A few minutes later,

an ergency vehicle raced through the green channel, stopping at the ergency entrance.

Clack!

The car door opened, and a rescue worker jumped out.

"Quick! The unconscious one is in the back!"

"Move the bed! 1, 2, 3!"

The woman was placed on a hospital bed and imdiately taken into the ergency room.

As the first ergency vehicle left, another one followed right on its tail.

All the dical staff’s hearts were in their throats.

The avulsion injury case had arrived!
