As soon as the ambulance stopped, a badly mutilated patient was pushed out.
The paramedic pressed on the patient's abdomen with one hand and quickly reported, "Heart rate 120, blood pressure 120/90, abdominal injury, respiratory rate 22, pre-hospital pure oxygen …"
"Follow me, straight to the surgical floor." The attending physician from the General Surgery Department was also experienced. He glanced at the injured position and walked forward.
If it was a normal day, the doctors from the General Surgery Department would definitely pay great attention to a patient with a punctured stomach, and they might even ask their department director for consultation.
Ordinary attending physicians were worried that they were not capable enough, and they were also not willing to take on too much responsibility.
However, when everyone realized that it might be a major accident or an extremely major accident, it was difficult for a patient with a punctured stomach to attract everyone's attention.
The attending physician from the General Surgery Department only glanced at the associate chief physician who was standing next to him. He then followed Ling Ran's arrangement and brought the patient to the operating theater to perform an exploratory laparotomy, which saved a lot of effort.
The patients with shock who were handed over to the Department of Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic Surgery and the Emergency Department were also successfully taken away, which made Ling Ran feel a little relieved.
After a while, Zuo Cidian, who had finished giving orders to the kitchen, rushed back and saw Doctor Zhou busily giving orders in the resuscitation room.
He saw Doctor Zhou in the resuscitation room busy for a while …
'Huh?
Old Zhou is busy? '
Zuo Cidian was stunned. He looked around carefully, but he still only saw Doctor Zhou, Ma Yanlin, and the others who were busy. He did not see Yu Yuan. Of course, this was very normal. But where did Doctor Ling go?
Zuo Cidian quickly walked out, and he only felt relieved when he saw Ling Ran.
Then, Zuo Cidian became nervous again. He quickly went to Ling Ran's side, and like a child chasing after Fragrance Yard, he whispered in Ling Ran's ear, "Doctor Ling, are you … okay?"
"Everything is normal," Ling Ran said.
"Normal?" Zuo Cidian hesitated and looked around before he whispered, "I saw that the doctors from other departments have started to perform surgery …"
Ling Ran understood and smiled. "There are only four ambulances in total. Let's wait a little longer."
"Oh, yes … you're right. They'll deal with the patients in the ambulances, and the type of patients isn't suitable for us either … We should be considered as a strategic reserve team … "Zuo Cidian helped Ling Ran imagine the situation. He stood behind Ling Ran, puffed out his chest, and raised his head. He faced the direction of the reception door with a serious expression.
Compared to minor accidents, the complexity of major accidents was mainly reflected in the sudden influx of a large number of injured people.
In terms of the symptoms of the injured, the condition of the injured in a major accident was not necessarily worse than that of the injured in a minor accident. However, the instantaneous pressure brought about by a large number of injured people was like an electric surge. It could easily penetrate the materials with insufficient insulation.
For an institution like the hospital, once it was penetrated, it would be completely messed up, and everything would be over. At the most critical moment, just like what happened to Ling Ran in Brazil, he had to label the patient's condition to determine the order of rescue.
Similarly, for institutions like hospitals, as long as they were not defeated, the number of patients was actually the accumulation of fatigue.
It was normal for an ordinary tertiary Grade A hospital in the country to perform hundreds of surgeries a day. However, it was impossible for a normal accident to provide hundreds of injured people. It was nothing more than a one-time pressure.
Ling Ran saw this very clearly, and Zuo Cidian could understand it too.
However, after waiting for a while, Zuo Cidian was a little worried and said, "Doctor Ling, what if … the scale of the accident is this big? Or, if the injured are sent to other hospitals … "
"Do you really want to perform surgeries today?" Ling Ran looked at Zuo Cidian strangely.
Zuo Cidian was amused. "I'm thinking for you. I reckon that if you release the surgeries and no more injured people come in later, you won't be able to perform surgeries on your side, right? "
"Can't we take back the surgeries we release?" Ling Ran turned and glanced at Zuo Cidian.
"Take back?" Zuo Cidian widened his eyes, and he immediately understood. "So, you're planning to …"
Ling Ran looked at Zuo Cidian with a puzzled gaze, and his expression showed that it was only natural.
Zuo Cidian gulped and tried his best to think. Then, he took the initiative to defend Ling Ran. "At least … if it's Doctor Zhou's replacement, he would definitely be willing … Huh? So, Doctor Zhou has been assigned patients with shock?"
Ling Ran looked at Zuo Cidian, baffled, and said, "The news from the scene of the accident has been sent over. Two more ambulances will be coming soon."
"Uh …" Zuo Cidian was stunned for a moment. He then pretended to clear his throat a few times. "Doctor Ling, I'll definitely do my best during the resuscitation later."
Ling Ran nodded, then shook his head and said, "There are no patients with Colles' fracture later. Wait for the patients with minor injuries to come before you go. The first batch of patients should be handed over to the Divine Foreign Surgery Department … "
Zuo Cidian was disappointed for a moment before he snapped out of it. He then said with some relief, "I'll listen to your arrangements."
"Five minutes." The nurse came over to report the time.
Ling Ran nodded and said to Zuo Cidian, "Emergency surgeries are more urgent. The first priority is to complete them smoothly. If you want to perform surgery, I'll arrange a few elective surgeries for you later."
"Oh … okay …" Zuo Cidian quickly agreed. He turned his head and suddenly felt a little dizzy. 'What did I agree to just now?'
"Doctor Ling, um …" At this moment, a nurse ran over and whispered, "Can you come to the operating theater and take a look?"
"Where's the patient? What's the situation?" Ling Ran's voice was steady.
"It's the patient who was sent to Operating Theater 3 previously …"
"From the Orthopedics Department?"
"Yes …" The nurse whispered, "The patient might be bleeding profusely, and he wants you to take a look."
"Who's in Operating Theater 3 right now?" Zuo Cidian first asked.
"Attending Physician Liu is currently the chief surgeon inside. Associate Chief Physician Yao is also there," the nurse whispered.
"But the bleeding hasn't stopped yet?" Zuo Cidian asked.
"No," the nurse answered.
"I'll go and take a look." Ling Ran looked at the time and left.
Zuo Cidian chased after Ling Ran and whispered, "Doctor Ling, if Associate Chief Physician Yao is here, it might not be appropriate for us to go over now … If we encounter another accident …"
"Save the patient first, then treat the patient." Ling Ran did not slow down.
Zuo Cidian licked his lips and was speechless.
In the hospital, he had seen too many deaths. Sometimes, many things were considered normal …
However, Zuo Cidian's footsteps became lighter as he followed Ling Ran.
"Doctor Zuo." Ling Ran turned around and shouted.
"Yes," Zuo Cidian answered loudly.
"The ambulance over there will be coming over soon. Keep an eye on the scene and perform the resuscitation according to the plan. If there's any problem, look for me. "Ling Ran turned around and said this before he walked away.
Zuo Cidian was stunned and thought, 'So, I should be considered as supervising the scene?'
