My Medical Skills Give Me Experience Points Chapter 1316 - 519: The Role of a Note, Invitation2
After reading the note, Director Xiang stood there in a daze, silent for a long ti.
Doing everything possible to overco all difficulties to save lives is a doctor’s duty and sothing all doctors must adhere to as their professional ethics.
Although Zhou Can didn’t say it explicitly, there was a faint hint of coercion.
If they missed the golden window for rescue, the Provincial People’s Hospital would not bear any responsibility, but Director Xiang would face a moral condemnation.
Conscience is an invisible ruler.
It exists in everyone’s heart.
When we make mistakes, or are too selfish and cause harm to others, if we are kind enough, we will feel conscience-stricken, uneasy, or even guilty.
The cold-hearted might ignore others’ feelings.
As the saying goes, their conscience has been eaten by dogs.
However, such people are rare. Most people in this world are good.
Director Xiang attained such a high status and his dical skills are exceptional, so there’s naturally no problem with his professional ethics.
After reading the contents of the note, he was enduring inner agony.
An invisible pressure was hitting him in waves.
The note forced him to find a way to actively treat the patient in bed 13.
A mont later, he returned to the duty room.
"Bring the patient information for bed 13 again."
Everyone saw that his face looked sowhat grave, and no one knew what had happened.
Pang Houzhong imdiately handed over the patient’s examination report and other materials to Director Xiang.
"The intracranial fluid accumulation is quite severe. After your discussion earlier, did you co up with any good solutions?"
"In such cases, surgery is usually the solution. It requires collaboration between doctors from Orthopedics and Neurosurgery. But as you’ve seen, the patient’s condition is such that they can’t even go on the operating table."
Director Zhao’s face was filled with helplessness.
So patients’ physical conditions don’t et the requirents for surgery, so doctors can only choose more conservative treatnts.
Otherwise, what if the patient dies on the operating table and the family demands an explanation from the hospital?
Even if the family doesn’t cause a commotion, the patient’s death on the operating table could affect multiple hospital ratings.
Including negative impacts and even penalties for the chief surgeon.
No one would willingly engage in such a ’loss-making’ endeavor.
"Have you consulted experts from Neurosurgery?" Director Xiang asked, holding the materials, his face always sowhat somber.
The patient’s injuries were very severe, with unidentified internal injuries, making treatnt extrely difficult.
"After ergency admission, experts from Neurosurgery, Thoracic Surgery, and Orthopedics were consulted. Thoracic experts diagnosed that the patient’s spleen was likely ruptured, with other organs possibly damaged or displaced, and the condition was critical. Neurosurgery experts diagnosed that there was bleeding in the patient’s brain, very close to the brainstem, with high surgical risk and difficulty. Orthopedic experts diagnosed multiple fractures in various body parts and suggested scheduling surgery at a later ti."
After Director Zhao finished explaining the situation, Director Xiang just nodded and did not speak further.
The patient’s injuries were very severe, possibly with no future at all.
Desiring active rescue requires doctors with the necessary skills.
In the current situation of this patient, who dares to operate?
Director Xiang is rely an expert in the Intensive Care dicine Departnt, not professional in surgical matters, nor does he have the surgical capability.
"Check to see if Zhou Can has left! If he is still here, please have him co to my office. I want to talk to him."
After much consideration, Director Xiang finally made this difficult decision.
The patient in bed 13 had temporarily stabilized after a thrombectomy.
But everyone knew that the patient’s condition was still deteriorating. It’s very likely he might not even make it through tonight.
There were too many patients who fell from great heights and after unsuccessful rescues, passed away.
Everyone was surprised to hear Director Xiang say this, looking at him with astonishnt.
The ’odd-job’ nurse then ran out to find the person.
"Why are you all looking at like that? Didn’t you just suggest I consult with Zhou Can together? Now I’m preparing to do just that. At least it won’t hurt to hear his opinion."
Facing the strange looks from everyone, Director Xiang was sowhat uncomfortable.
He could only take the initiative to explain a couple of things.
But everyone was more curious about what Zhou Can had written on that note that caused such a significant change in Director Xiang’s attitude.
However, no one dared to ask about it directly.
After finishing the note, Zhou Can did not leave the Provincial People’s Hospital imdiately. He relayed so basic information about Deputy Director Lu to Lu Fen.
According to the current treatnt thods at the Provincial People’s Hospital, Deputy Director Lu might not make it through tonight.
Zhou Can was considering persuading Lu Fen to transfer Deputy Director Lu to Tuya Hospital.
Such critically ill patients carry substantial risks with any transfer.
Many can’t even leave the ICU.
Deputy Director Lu had multiple fractures across his body, and transporting him could easily cause further injuries.
Therefore, it was a very tricky situation.
Moreover, if the transfer resulted in failure, wouldn’t Tuya Hospital face significant trouble?
Even though Zhou Can had so standing at Tuya, he had to be extrely cautious in handling such matters.
One thing was certain: if Deputy Director Lu could be transferred to Tuya Hospital, and as long as the family agreed to cooperate, Zhou Can would go to great lengths to persuade all the relevant departnts to treat Deputy Director Lu proactively.
Of course, this was just his wishful thinking.
There were many obstacles to overco in actual practice, making it nearly impossible to achieve.
The best solution was to let Deputy Director Lu remain at the Provincial People’s Hospital for continued treatnt. If he could persuade the hospital to undertake a more active rescue for Deputy Director Lu, that would be ideal.
He had initially communicated so of the pros and cons and the current situation faced by Deputy Director Lu with Lu Fen.
However, considering his limited acquaintance with Lu Fen, her young age, and lack of social experience, he was cautious in his conversation to avoid potential dical disputes.
He only hinted and provided so explanations and reminders.
She was the only direct relative of Deputy Director Lu at the mont and had the right to decide on any treatnts for him.
If he could get her to understand so background before further communication with the Provincial People’s Hospital, Zhou Can would feel more confident.
Otherwise, even if he could persuade the hospital’s doctors to take so risky but proactive rescue asures for Deputy Director Lu, it would all be in vain if the family didn’t agree.
"Dr. Zhou, I didn’t expect you hadn’t left yet, great!"
The young nurse assigned to find Zhou Can appeared very happy to see him.
She treated Zhou Can with great respect.
She even seed sowhat reverent.
"Is there sothing you need?"
Zhou Can looked up at the nurse.
"Here’s the thing, our Director Xiang would like to invite you to his office for a chat. Do you have ti now?"
"Sure!"
Zhou Can responded with just one word.
He seed to have anticipated this outco.
Accompanied by the nurse to Director Xiang’s office, the room was empty.
"Dr. Zhou, please have a seat for a mont. Director Xiang will be here soon."
"Alright."
Zhou Can nodded.
"My colleagues have been praising your high level of dical skills! It’s my first ti witnessing the brilliance of a young, outstanding doctor from Tuya Hospital. Compared to those I’ve seen before, you’re different."
The young nurse spoke with admiration and respect in her gaze toward Zhou Can.
Though not much older than her, Zhou Can’s skills indeed earned much admiration.
She had already called Director Xiang to inform him that Zhou Can was in his office. anwhile, she stayed to chat with Zhou Can.
She didn’t want to leave him feeling neglected.
Additionally, she was curious about the real situation at Tuya Hospital, intending to gather insights through conversation with Zhou Can.
Just as Zhou Can wanted to understand the Provincial People’s Hospital, one might say they were competitors.
"Haha, you’re too kind!"
Zhou Can wasn’t too interested in chatting with this young nurse.
He just casually replied.
But the nurse seed quite enthusiastic.
"Are there many young doctors and nurses as outstanding as you at Tuya Hospital?"
"There are lots more people better than ."
Zhou Can said seriously.
He never considered himself particularly excellent since his goal was to beco one of the world’s top doctors and form a super team.
