On the way to work in the morning, Yang Ping passed by the ergency departnt, which was still bustling. The ergency departnt is a place that never closes, 24/7, year after year, day after day.
Back at the institute, Yang Ping felt that the institute was still quiet. Compared to the ergency departnt, it was like two different worlds. Yang Ping really admired the brothers in the ergency departnt, who endured high-intensity work and trendous psychological pressure every day to save lives.
Chief resident Dr. Li ca out, bleary-eyed. He only slept for an hour in the morning, having pulled two consecutive all-nighters. He was repeatedly called to the ergency departnt for consultations, and last night he went to see several patients, spending a sleepless night. These days, the ergency departnt seed insane, constantly calling on the institute for help.
But that’s how it is for chief residents. Who hasn’t co up this way? There’s no chief resident who can get a good night’s sleep. The institute’s chief resident is a bit better off. He isn’t called for consultations unless it’s a special case. If it were the orthopedic chief resident, he’d surely be so exhausted every day that his chest would feel tight, breathing rapid, vision blurry, head dizzy, limbs weak, and finally, he’d hang up the phone with a hoarse voice, yet keep running because that’s what a chief resident has to do.
The patient, who was drunk, had fully sobered up. He was just drunk, after all. His vital signs were very stable, posing no life-threatening danger. The female reporter had been fussing all night, feeling very tired herself.
In the morning, the doctor and nurse finished their rounds and told her she could check out and leave, as everything was fine.
Even though the female reporter was very tired, a surge of anger flared within her. It wasn’t for any other reason than the fact that she felt she hadn’t been given any importance throughout her entire experience at this hospital. She was treated like an ordinary person, which she found intolerable. So, she created various excuses, aiming to force the ergency departnt to give her and her husband special treatnt, such as a private room and doctors and nurses standing by their bedside at all tis.
However, none of these demands were t by the ergency departnt. Not only were they not t, but they completely disregarded her requests.
The female reporter gathered information on the entire treatnt process and wrote an article, complete with images, ready to publish.
Of course, she wasn’t going to publish based on facts. She never had such a habit. She only published what she wanted, purely to express her emotions, achieve her goals, and attract attention. The rest didn’t matter.
The gist of her article was: Her spouse arrived at the ergency departnt of Sanbo Hospital, already in critical condition, and the doctors and nurses here ignored them, leaving them unattended. It wasn’t until her husband woke up himself. anwhile, a so-called professor completely ignored her several calls for help, utterly dismissing life. She tried multiple tis to take photos with her phone, but the hospital’s doctor allegedly beat her and smashed her phone.
In the morning, several subordinates from her husband’s workplace ca to pick him up as soon as they received the news. As they left, the female reporter also gave the doctors and nurses a piece of her mind.
The young lady whose blood pressure dropped almost to shock was asked by the doctor several tis before she finally admitted that she had taken four Bay Aspirin tablets. The usual dose was one tablet, 30 milligrams. She took four tablets, which is 120 milligrams, four tis the dose. No wonder her blood pressure inexplicably dropped, with no apparent reason.
If it weren’t for her considerable weight, these four tablets could have very well shocked her.
Her reason for taking the dication was simple. She believed that antihypertensive drugs could also lower blood lipids, so she decided to try to see if they could reduce lipids. In her logic, lowering blood pressure could lower blood lipids, and reducing lipids could lead to weight loss. Therefore, she took the antihypertensive drugs.
So things simply have no logic, so they cannot be explained logically. It is what it is, and existence is existence.
Actually, Yang Ping wasn’t too surprised. After all, when he was rotating through the ergency departnt, he encountered many bizarre situations. So patients’ blood pressure would surge to 200, yet they refused to lower it, accusing the doctors of trying to swindle them. They claid to have anemia, saying anemia ans less blood, while hypertension ans more blood, which is contradictory. According to them, even a three-year-old knows that hypertension and anemia can’t coexist, so they concluded that the doctors were trying to scam them. They believed they understood their own bodies best.
"Yesterday, there was another severe trauma patient whose spine was bent. I heard that while unloading goods, steel rolls from the truck rolled straight onto his back, crushing him down directly. At the thoracolumbar segnt, his upper body and lower body closed like a hinge, severely injuring the spinal cord. Ergency surgery was perford by Director Tan. The condition was really quite shocking when it arrived."
Dr. Li gave a detailed report on so cases from last night.
The institute is now independent, with all the labs from Nandu dical University combined to form the dical Science Academy. So, structurally, the dical Science Academy now ranks higher than Sanbo Hospital. However, because of the integration of research and clinical practice, the institute still needs to maintain close ties with Sanbo Hospital. The hierarchical structure has changed, but the mutual interactions have not significantly altered.
After all, the two exist together. The institute is a hospital within a hospital at Sanbo, and many things cannot yet be entirely separated, nor do they need to be.
"What was yesterday, anyway, for the ergency departnt to be this intense? Not one easy case."
"I’m puzzled too. What was going on yesterday?"
Everyone was discussing it, seizing so rare downti before the handover to talk and relax a little. Despite the conversation, their hands kept busy.
"Pay a bit more attention to the cases filed under dical insurance. So diagnoses and treatnts aren’t very standard. I’ve printed notes with my corrective suggestions and inserted them into the case files. Those without the need for corrections have a qualifying note. Look for if there isn’t a note."
