"Shi Lei, has the diagnosis been confird?" Zhou Shuwen asked as he walked in from outside with his team.
Shi Lei nodded. "Almost certain. Thanks to Liu Banxia’s tily detection, the condition wasn’t allowed to worsen."
His words were quite indirect, but Zhou Shuwen, Xiao He, the deputy director of gastroenterology he had brought, and Ding Wenbo, the deputy director of cardiothoracic surgery, all understood.
This young doctor might have prevented a dical malpractice incident for the hospital.
After the three senior doctors examined the patient, their expressions beca sowhat grave.
"What do you two think?" Zhou Shuwen asked.
"Xiao Shi’s judgnt is very accurate, and the bloodletting was tily. We should perform an urgent cardiac ultrasound, then routine blood tests, blood biochemistry, and a chest and abdon MRI. The heart auscultation just now was very poor; there’s likely so iron deposition in the heart," Ding Wenbo said.
DING! Gained 20 experience points, 10 skill proficiency points in diagnostic dicine.
Liu Banxia blinked his eyes. No wonder everyone loves to associate with senior doctors. Even just listening to them can increase one’s skill level; it’s definitely worth sticking with the system. This must be the result of that increased comprehension ability. Excellent!
"Okay, I’ll arrange it now," Wang Ying, who had arrived subsequently, responded.
"Doctor Liu, is our Old Liu in danger?" Liu Liyou’s wife asked, extrely anxious.
"Don’t worry, as I just said, it’s not very serious. After the consultation with the three departnt heads, it’s basically confird as hemochromatosis," Liu Banxia said reassuringly.
"This ans there’s too much iron in the body, which then deposits in the organs. Phlebotomy therapy can stabilize the condition. With regular phlebotomy, combined with iron chelating agents for symptomatic treatnt, we can help the body tabolize this excess iron."
"Also, you should call your son back. Such conditions can sotis be hereditary and sotis acquired. If it’s hereditary, then it was truly worthwhile for Uncle to co in today."
"Doctor Liu, can this iron disease of mine be cured?" Liu Liyou asked, forcing himself to sound strong.
He had been terrified earlier. Whether it was the recent blood draw or the three deputy directors coming for a consultation, he had assud he had a terminal illness.
Liu Banxia felt a bit awkward. After all, with the three senior doctors present, it was a bit risky for the patient and his family to be seeking his opinion.
Zhou Shuwen, however, didn’t mind and gave him an encouraging look.
"You can rest assured. Whatever the illness, as long as we’ve identified it, that’s a positive step. We need to act quickly. Our head nurse will personally coordinate things for you. You’re certainly receiving VIP treatnt," Liu Banxia said with a smile.
Hearing his words, Liu Liyou’s tension eased considerably. The ergency room nurses then wheeled him out directly on the bed. After all, ascitic fluid had just been drawn; if Liu Liyou were to walk on his own, he might have collapsed.
"Old Zhou, Xiao Shi is doing really well now," Xiao He said with a smile.
"Director Xiao, I wasn’t the one who discovered the condition; Liu Banxia did. The decision to stop the paracentesis and perform tily phlebotomy therapy was his accurate judgnt," Shi Lei quickly clarified.
Hearing him say this, Zhou Shuwen and the other two looked at Liu Banxia in surprise.
"I only beca suspicious when I saw Liu Liyou clutching his chest," Liu Banxia said.
Zhou Shuwen nodded. "This is the second such case today. There was another patient with a sprained ankle; Liu Banxia thought more about it and diagnosed pancreatic cancer."
Hearing Zhou Shuwen’s praise, Liu Banxia gave a wry smile. He felt the complint wasn’t fully deserved. Without the system, the outco would have been completely different.
"Hey, young man, Old Zhou doesn’t praise people lightly. Why do you still look so troubled?" Ding Wenbo asked curiously.
"Director Ding, to be honest with you, I’m actually scared to death," Liu Banxia said with a bitter laugh.
"I was the one who initially saw this patient, and at that ti, I didn’t notice these symptoms at all. Just now, I was rely putting on a brave face; I was almost scared to tears."
Hearing his words, Ding Wenbo, rather than thinking him cowardly, nodded approvingly. "That depends on how you look at it. I also checked just now; his other indicators aren’t very obvious. Plus, he has liver cirrhosis and a dark complexion, so it could easily be overlooked."
"It’s rare to have such a sense of awe. So people would just feel fortunate and not reflect deeply. I dare say that even if one of our hospital’s attending internists had seen him, they might not have identified the condition."
"Did you not look at his test report?" Xiao He asked.
DING! Gained 30 experience points, 5 skill proficiency points in diagnostic dicine.
Liu Banxia pondered this. Was this enhanced ntal faculty attribute too overpowered? He got a reward just for listening to that sentence? He understood. This could also be considered a form of teaching, making him realize the importance of test reports, which was why he was given diagnostic skill proficiency.
Qi Wentai, standing to the side, didn’t dare to look up. His feelings for Liu Banxia had shifted from his initial disdain to outright envy and resentnt.
"There was a minor situation, so Liu only conducted the initial diagnosis in the ergency departnt," Zhou Shuwen interjected.
Xiao He frowned. He had been curious, but now, with Zhou Shuwen’s remark, he understood there was an internal issue within the ergency departnt.
"Shi Lei, bring Liu with you for the surgery the day after tomorrow," Zhou Shuwen said with a smile.
"Ah... Thank you, Director Zhou!"
Liu Banxia was ecstatic. He shouted loudly, unsure how to express his gratitude. He never thought he would one day be able to personally observe Zhou Shuwen’s surgery! With so many people in the hospital, and so many attending doctors queuing for the opportunity, how could it possibly be his turn, a resident?
The three senior doctors paid no mind to his overt excitent; it was a normal reaction. They had all experienced similar monts in their careers.
"Don’t just stand there grinning like an idiot. Getting carried away again, are we?" Shi Lei said, slapping him lightly in exasperation.
"Heh heh, I’m just so happy," Liu Banxia said, then grabbed Shi Lei’s arm and jumped up and down, his eyes growing moist.
"Boss, you’re the best boss! Please find a surgery for . You can’t always leave out in the cold with nothing to do!"
Feeling his gaze and hearing his words, Shi Lei felt a shiver run down his spine, goosebumps erupting all over him so intensely they felt like they were scattering to the floor.
"I’ll look into it later. If there’s sothing not too difficult, I’ll see what I can do," Shi Lei said, feeling a bit flustered himself.
Liu Banxia was stunned; he hadn’t expected Shi Lei to agree so easily. Then, he impulsively picked Shi Lei up and spun around joyfully.
DING! Task Issued: Perform surgery as the chief surgeon.
As a general surgeon, performing surgery as the chief surgeon is a turning point in life. This is an open-ended task; rewards will be distributed according to the difficulty and outco of the surgery.
Spinning happily, he saw the mission prompt and almost threw Shi Lei off.
Taking advantage of Liu Banxia’s daze, Shi Lei quickly broke free. He didn’t know why Shoutian had beco so "dangerous" today. He decided he should head to the ICU in the inpatient departnt to take a look.
