"Banxia, I’m to bla for this. If only I’d insisted, been more attentive, and perford a urinalysis on the patient first, we might have found so clues," Wang Huan said self-reproachfully as the young man took the patient to complete the hospital admission procedures.
Liu Banxia shook his head. "Based on my diagnosis of that child last ti, it truly might not have been detectable. This patient’s situation today is too unique; anyone would have been misled."
"One of our main criteria for distinguishing abdominal pain is whether it’s dull pain or colic. The patient unknowingly led us astray. We went off course right at the beginning, and it’s not easy to get back on track."
"Banxia, how did you figure it out then?" Wang Huan asked.
"When I listened with the stethoscope, I noticed her bowel sounds were quite frequent. It wasn’t like she had just eaten, and the colonoscopy found no lesions. So, it had to be neurological."
"So, at that point, I beca a bit suspicious and then paid attention to her facial expression. If we’re in pain, we definitely grimace and contort our faces. But the patient’s tolerance is very high, so her expression was just a frown."
"We thought her frown ant she disliked us, but that wasn’t it at all. It was because she was in pain. And it was because of the pain that her mood was low, and she didn’t feel like interacting with anyone."
"Sigh... why is diagnosing illnesses so difficult these days?" Wang Huan said with a bitter smile.
"In any case, we diagnosed it. I’ve never seen anyone with such high pain tolerance. It’s not a common case, so don’t take it to heart," Liu Banxia said.
"Take a short break. This patient has taken a lot of effort. I’ll go check things outside. Today’s interns are a bit excited; I need to keep an eye on them."
Wang Huan nodded, knowing Liu Banxia was trying to comfort him.
He could consider the reasons Liu Banxia ntioned, but that would only be evading the issue. Why was Liu Banxia able to discover subtle details when he couldn’t? He really needed to work harder.
They had discussed it before; Liu Banxia was now capable of handling work from almost any departnt. Zhang Xiao had been quite relieved back then because Liu Banxia hadn’t touched their neurosurgery work.
But what about now? What about that ti he inserted a needle near the eyeball to drain hydrocephalus and relieve a cerebral hernia? Hadn’t he managed that too?
However, he indeed needed to calm himself before he could see patients. Otherwise, with a troubled mind, he might very well misdiagnose soone.
Liu Banxia went outside and took a quick look around; it seed nothing was amiss.
"Dr. Liu, there’s a car accident patient here with a dislocated shoulder and a cracked clavicle. Can you reduce it first? We’re worried that if we delay too long, it might affect her circulatory system," Qi Wentai said, stepping out of Ergency Room Two.
"Alright, I’m coming," Liu Banxia nodded.
This was a minor issue, sothing that could be resolved in minutes.
Arriving at Ergency Room Two, he saw the patient: a woman in her forties with an injury to her left shoulder joint. The injury was quite serious; a chest tube had already been inserted.
To be safe, he first examined the X-ray films. Only after carefully examining them did he perform the reduction for the patient.
Ding! Patient treatnt complete.
You gained 50 experience points, 50 diagnostic skill proficiency points, and 50 orthopedic skills proficiency points.
"Thanks, you’ve saved us a lot of ti. For manual reduction, only you and Dr. Wu are skilled enough. No one else can do it," Qi Wentai said with a smile.
"Manual reduction is risky. I guess only a daredevil like would attempt it. Is there any problem with her abdon?" Liu Banxia asked.
"Her internal organs are fine. The main issue is that her external injuries are quite severe. We’ll send her for a brain CT soon," said Qi Wentai.
Liu Banxia nodded. These were all routine procedures, with nothing requiring special attention.
"Teacher Liu, the director is calling for you," Xu Yino shouted just as he was walking out.
Liu Banxia hurried into Director Zhou Shuwen’s office.
"Director, you were looking for ?" Liu Banxia asked.
"Sit down, let’s chat for a bit," Zhou Shuwen said casually.
"Director, if there’s sothing you want to say, just say it directly. I can handle it," Liu Banxia said.
"It’s still about this surgery. I didn’t expect it to cause such a big sensation externally," Zhou Shuwen said with a smile.
"The hospital had originally planned to publicize the surgery after its success, but our reaction was a bit slow. The Municipal Propaganda Departnt has contacted the hospital and plans to do a detailed report on this surgery."
"The Chief Director’s idea is for you to be in charge of this report. It’s nothing complicated; you just need to clearly explain the surgical situation."
Liu Banxia shook his head like a rattle drum. "Director, I think you’re the most suitable person for this. This isn’t trying to suck up to you. If I wanted to suck up, I’d do it openly."
Zhou Shuwen gave him a helpless look. "Be serious."
He chuckled. "Here’s what I’m thinking. Publicizing our surgery is just one aspect. The main purpose is to promote our ergency center, isn’t it?" Liu Banxia asked.
Zhou Shuwen nodded.
"The Chief Director wants to take charge, likely for two reasons. One, I have relevant experience; I’ve done interviews and appeared on special programs. Two, it’s to show the outside world that our Second Hospital breaks from old conventions and promotes based on ability. Right?" Liu Banxia continued.
Zhou Shuwen looked at him in surprise. "Is this what you usually spend your ti thinking about?"
"Not at all. This ca up a few days ago when my future father-in-law and Qiu Huaili were chatting. They said that if not for such considerations, no matter how incredibly talented I was, enough to ascend to the heavens, I wouldn’t have risen through the ranks so quickly. It would be inconsistent with the overall environnt," Liu Banxia said.
"Then what are your thoughts? Explain clearly," Zhou Shuwen asked.
"It’s just as I said. You should handle this, Director," Liu Banxia stated.
"Using for publicity, well, it’s really not a big deal, and it would definitely have so effect. But so people might think our Second Hospital is too aggressive, not stable enough."
"Because the general perception of doctors is still tied to age. Let’s put it this way, even having you lead is a bit risky, given you also achieved fa at a young age and currently hold many titles."
"I told you to be serious. Were you praising ?" Zhou Shuwen said, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
"Teacher, I am being serious," Liu Banxia said earnestly.
"No one else can participate in this; only those who were on the operating table can. This way, it’s justifiable. Our ergency center is already established; whoever participates can achieve the publicity goal."
"But the fundantal problem our ergency center faces right now is a shortage of people. The hospital should be able to solve funding issues; we can make do sohow. But supplenting personnel is really difficult. Even a single CCU can only be half-staffed for now."
"If Shi Lei or I are put forward again, people outside might worry. After all, seniority is a very valuable thing. Especially in our dical field, this factor often brings a lot of experience."
"If this causes a misunderstanding with the outside world, it wouldn’t be good. It would not only affect the developnt of our ergency center but could also impact the Chief Director’s future plans."
Zhou Shuwen looked at him intently, surprised that he would say sothing so profound.
Although they were ntor and disciple, so things couldn’t be stated too bluntly. However, he understood. What was the Chief Director’s future plan? He was planning not just for the Second Hospital, but also for his future career path.
Chen Zhenxing had his own ambitions; Zhou Shuwen knew this. But whether they could succeed depended on opportunity and strength. Opportunities aren’t just handed to you; they are created. So, the ergency center, though seemingly reckless, was established just like that. The consequences were also apparent: staffing couldn’t keep up, requiring them to seize every chance to attract talent.
But he had been a bit too hasty. He originally thought this was an excellent opportunity to establish Liu Banxia as a role model for the outside world.
Now, after hearing Liu Banxia’s analysis, it seed it wasn’t really the case.
Just as Liu Banxia said, both patients and dical staff actually place great importance on seniority.
If they still used Liu Banxia as the benchmark, it would tell everyone that seniority didn’t count for much here. Even if so people were tempted, they would hesitate to co over.
To put it bluntly, it’s okay to be innovative, but don’t be unconventional. You need to follow the general trend of the entire dical community.
This reminder was very tily and important. Fortunately, he had asked Liu Banxia first. Otherwise, once the na was reported, it would be difficult to change.
However, what made him even more curious was whether these thoughts ca from his future father-in-law or if he had figured them out himself.
"Um, Director, so of these things my future father-in-law ntioned when we chatted, and so I figured out myself," Liu Banxia said, noticing the doubt in Zhou Shuwen’s eyes.
"He’s a businessman, and he often does business with foreigners, so he tends to ponder things a lot. Sotis, chatting with him gives a headache; I’m always worried I’ll accidentally say the wrong thing."
Zhou Shuwen chuckled. "It seems you really care about Qiaoqiao. Qiaoqiao is a good girl too. Then let’s do it this way. I’ll talk to the Chief Director about it."
"Our ergency center is now the front line of the hospital. Any new personnel will definitely be prioritized here. And departntal construction will also be improved; this is the hospital’s next key focus."
"I have a business trip in a few days. When the ti cos, you should attend any necessary etings. But there’s one thing: you can’t let your skills get rusty. This surgery also let you learn a lot about organ transplantation, right? So don’t make excuses to in the future."
Liu Banxia smiled and nodded. "Director, don’t worry, I won’t let things slide."
Walking out, Liu Banxia felt incredibly relieved. He had really been afraid they would push him into the lilight.
The old saying, "A tree that stands out in the forest will be destroyed by the wind," is true. I’ve already been in the spotlight too much. If I show off at every turn, it will definitely attract resentnt. The reason is very simple: I’m too young, and my qualifications are too low.
