Chapter 1165: 【1165】Rescue judgnts must be accurate
Zhang Tinghai believed his mind hadn’t gone astray.
If the people from the cardiothoracic departnt were truly capable, take a look: is the one desperately performing external cardiac compressions right now even from cardiothoracic? Don’t assu an anesthesiologist knows nothing. If external cardiac compressions fail, the success rate for open-chest cardiac massage to restore the heartbeat is exceedingly low. This has long been statistically proven in dicine. As such, clinical rescue procedures typically stop at external cardiac compressions when they prove ineffective.
To save this heart now, they must imdiately identify the cause and administer targeted treatnt.
Anxious frustration alternated on Zhang Tinghai’s face.
Anesthesiologists watch surgeons operate daily; the so-called clarity of outsiders often gives them a unique understanding of who’s truly skilled at specific monts.
“Dr. Xie!” Without waiting for anyone else to react, Zhang Tinghai called out directly to Xie Wanying.
Xie Wanying’s eyes had been fixed on the patient’s ECG, seemingly not having looked away for even a second.
Tao Zhijie and Tan Kelin suddenly snapped their heads around, observing her expression and suspecting she might have glimpsed the patient’s sudden ECG change just monts ago.
The teachers and senior colleagues, engrossed in surgical procedures, had no ti to monitor the ECG. Only her, the Mirror Assistant, while stabilizing the spotlight, had the opportunity to glance at it. No wonder Teacher Lu, with his weak heart, had both Teacher Zhang and the anesthesiologist deeply concerned before the operation, harboring ominous premonitions. The incident with Li Yaxi had already sounded the alarm for her. Xie Wanying believed that even if such premonitions couldn’t be imdiately substantiated, they must be taken seriously.
As the Chief Surgeon glanced over, Xie Wanying spoke in a calm yet valiantly composed tone, “It might be third-degree atrioventricular conduction block, and the patient needs a temporary pacemaker imdiately.”
Her voice carried a hint of apprehension. The situation had unfolded far too quickly for her to assess thoroughly, leaving her to rely on those fleeting two seconds and recall mory to make an educated guess.
“Are you certain?” Tao Zhijie’s gaze sharpened into an unprecedented intensity as he questioned her.
In ergencies, any erroneous judgnt could cost critical minutes—and lives.
“Teacher Zhang is performing cardiac compressions, but it doesn’t seem to be yielding results, does it?” Xie Wanying responded swiftly to her senior colleague’s query, her directness reflecting the urgency of the mont. There was no ti to hesitate now; even speaking needed to be quick.
The two Chief Surgeons began calculating rapidly based on her observations.
Suddenly, a loud slam sounded from the operating room door as soone bolted out.
Tao Zhijie’s sharp gaze darted to the door, catching the fleeting shadow of Song Xueling rushing away.
What was he doing? Gao Zhaocheng spotted it too, struck by disbelief. Could it be that the Beidu Talented Scholar had just fled out of fear, abandoning his post like a coward?
“Her reasoning holds so rit,” Tan Kelin declared in a low, firm voice from behind his surgical mask.
Tao Zhijie promptly stepped forward and instructed Zhang Tinghai, “Administer ephedrine imdiately.”
Luckily, the bag of ephedrine hadn’t been discarded. Zhang Tinghai swiftly retrieved the rescue dication and hung it back on the IV stand. Lau Jingyun synchronized with his actions, quickly pulling open the ergency drug drawer, extracting atropine and adrenaline, and desperately drawing them into syringes.
Thump, thump, thump—the sound of wild, sprinting footsteps from outside raced closer.
Song Xueling reappeared at the operating room door, nearly tripping over himself in his haste. Gao Zhaocheng reached out just in ti to steady him and catch the items he was clutching with both hands. Glancing down, he quickly inspected what Song Xueling had brought back.
