Yuan Wei felt like he had fallen asleep. When he woke up, he was still reminiscing the sweet memories from his dream. It had been a while since he had slept so soundly.
"Yuan Wei, Yuan Wei …" He Jinxiu called her husband's name and gently squeezed his other hand, which was still in good condition.
Yuan Wei slowly opened his eyes. The white ceiling was reflected in his eyes, and a series of messages came pouring in, as if they had been reconnected.
"I …" Yuan Wei could not help but raise his hand, but it was fixed. When he wanted to sit up, He Jinxiu quickly pressed him down.
"Don't panic. Do you feel uncomfortable?" He Jinxiu felt that she had never been so gentle in her life.
When she sold agricultural resources in the village, she could put her hands on her hips and scold people for three hours. Her roar at the east side of the village could wake up the old man at the west side of the village. However, her husband's weakness made He Jinxiu's voice weak as well.
"I …" Yuan Wei's voice was dry, and his lips were dry. He gradually recalled the surgery and what happened before the surgery. When he looked at his bulging left hand, which was bandaged, Yuan Wei forced a smile. "I'm fine."
Tears rolled down He Jinxiu's cheeks in an instant.
Over the past few hours, He Jinxiu's chest was filled with anger. She resented all the people, things, and things around her. She resented her luck, the world, her work, and society. Only now did she feel scared.
What if Yuan Wei was disabled …
What about the debts he owed …
What should she do next …
There were many things that she had never thought about, and many things that she did not want to think about.
If Yuan Wei's fingers were damaged, he would not be able to work, and He Jinxiu might need to take care of her family. The rumors in the village were inevitable. If she could bear it, her husband should be able to as well. As for the children …
He Jinxiu looked at her daughter with tears in her eyes. She felt that she had no strength left in her.
Sick!
Spend money!
Take care of her daughter!
She could not work!
All these things piled up, and it was as if He Jinxiu was stuffed into a well and pressed hard to the bottom.
"The patient is awake." Huo Congjun came to the ward with a smile.
He heard that Ling Ran was using a pharmaceutical sales representative, so he specially came to take a look.
Lu Wenbin followed closely behind him and introduced him to the family members. "Department Director Huo is the department director of our Emergency Department. He just happened to have time to come over."
He Jinxiu nodded a little blankly. It was obvious that she did not have any concept of the department director, the great department director, the great troll, or Department Director Huo.
When Huo Congjun saw this, he changed his plan a little. He switched to a friendly tone and said, "How do you feel?"
"I'm alright," Yuan Wei answered hesitantly.
"Yes, if you feel any discomfort, just call the nurse in time, or tell the doctor who's doing the ward rounds." Huo Congjun smiled, and his words were sincere.
Yuan Wei had just been anesthetized, so he was still a little slow, but He Jinxiu was already excited. "Department Director Huo, can my husband's hand recover? Can you still use your fingers in the future? "
"The surgery was very successful, so now we need to work on his recovery. If you recover well, you'll be able to use your fingers. Don't worry too much. "Huo Congjun was still as friendly as ever.
"The surgery is done. Shouldn't it be over by now?" He Jinxiu was filled with simple expectations.
"After the surgery is done, it's the recovery period. The recovery period is also very important, even more important than the surgery period. We'll call this entire set of recovery … Hmm, treatment, the perioperative period … "Huo Congjun comforted him gently and said," The next few days will be very important. There are two main obstacles that we need to overcome. "
"Overcome?"
"Yes." Huo Congjun knew how to chat with patients. He was like a warm old man. He said, "We call the first obstacle the infection period. The second obstacle, we call it the spasm period. Do you understand? It's just that it's easy to get inflamed and fester. "
He Jinxiu looked at Huo Congjun nervously and anxiously.
"Spasm can be understood as cramps. When the blood vessels cramp, the blood vessels are easy to spoil. When the blood vessels are spoiled, the fingers are easy to spoil." After Huo Congjun told them about the terrifying complications, he smiled and said, "You don't have to be afraid. You're staying in the hospital, and we deal with this kind of disease every day. At the same time, we also need your family's cooperation …"
Huo Congjun spent some time before he finally finished the ward rounds. He got up and left.
He Jinxiu thanked Huo Congjun profusely and sent him out of the ward door. She even asked her daughter to come over and bow to him.
Huo Congjun quickly stopped her and quickly left the ward area.
After entering the elevator, Huo Congjun let out a long sigh of relief.
"Is he not Ling Ran's relative?" Huo Congjun asked Lu Wenbin again.
"No." Lu Wenbin whispered, "He probably saw that the other party's condition is not good, so he wanted to do better."
"The materials he used are not listed in the medical insurance list. If he had to pay for it himself, the patient would go bankrupt. It would be better …" Huo Congjun snorted.
"Aren't those trial products given by the pharmaceutical sales representative? If they are not included in the expenses … "
Huo Congjun glared at Lu Wenbin and said, "When the bill is written, forget about the patient's family, will they be able to get through the medical insurance? Do you think that it's fine if they don't include the expenses? The person who verifies is checking whether you comply with the regulations … Sigh, if Ling Ran wants to use trial products, he can just use some occasionally. How can he use so many at once? Also, what about the equipment? What if Ling Ran gets used to using them? "
Lu Wenbin had been a doctor for a few years. After listening for a while, he finally understood. Huo Congjun was obviously more worried that Ling Ran wanted to use imported equipment.
The price of an imported forceps under a microscope might be ten times the price of a domestic forceps. For something like this, if one was not careful when using it and knocked it against a hard object, it might break. In fact, it was still a consumable.
With the frequency of Ling Ran's surgeries, using all imported equipment would consume a lot of money. More importantly, it might cause other doctors to follow his footsteps.
Lu Wenbin thought about it and said, "Doctor Ling should not be used to using them. I don't know if he likes imported or domestic ones."
"It's best if he doesn't, or else I can't afford to keep him. By the way, if anyone mentions this again, just say that Doctor Ling is doing scientific research." Huo Congjun gave a conclusion, and it could be considered as a final conclusion.
Lu Wenbin was stunned and said, "Okay."
"Pay more attention to this patient. Since he used such good materials, let's see if there's any effect," Huo Congjun said casually and returned to the office.
Lu Wenbin looked at Huo Congjun's back and could not help but pout. He thought, 'Why didn't you tell Ling Ran about this? You're just worried that he'll hate you.'
When he thought about it, it made sense. If he used some of the trial products sent by the pharmaceutical sales representative and got questioned, he would definitely be very annoyed. 'The problem is, I didn't use it.'
When Lu Wenbin thought about it, he suddenly felt that it was very unfair. Ling Ran was the one who used the materials and made the decision. Why was he the one who was annoyed and questioned?
However, the questioning was over, and Department Director Huo was also doing what he should do.
Lu Wenbin could not complain, so he could only return to the ward quietly.
In the ward with white walls and a blue floor, he saw Yu Yuan sitting by the bed.
Yu Yuan wore a pair of big black-rimmed glasses and held a notebook in her hand. She asked the patient Yuan Wei questions while taking notes seriously.
Lu Wenbin was baffled when he saw this. How could there be ward rounds like this? Forget about work efficiency, if she could only do a few ward rounds a day, it would be meaningless even if she recorded all the patient's conditions. There were only so many things to do after finger replantation surgeries. There was no need for medical staff to know if there were any changes in the patient's severed fingers. It was nothing more than edema, finger color, degree of fullness, and so on.
Yu Yuan saw Lu Wenbin and put away her notebook. She smiled and said, "Doctor Lu, I'll let you do it."
"I'm just here to take a look. What are you doing? "Lu Wenbin asked.
"I want to write a research paper." Yu Yuan did not hide it.
Lu Wenbin was stunned. He just heard Huo Congjun say that he wanted to do scientific research. He did not expect Yu Yuan to really prepare to write a research paper.
"Can you even publish a research paper like this in SCI?" Lu Wenbin had seen Yu Yuan's ability in writing research papers. He knew that she had published her previous research paper in an English journal, and she had also published a case report that had been reviewed. That was why he asked.
Yu Yuan smiled faintly. "No need to publish it in SCI. Just publish it in a core journal."
"A core journal … is good enough?" Lu Wenbin chuckled. He was also a person who needed to write research papers to evaluate attending physicians. All he needed to do was publish it in a core journal. When had it ever been "good enough"?
Yu Yuan nodded slightly and did not explain. Even without stepping on the footstool, her eyes were filled with contempt.
Lu Wenbin's mouth twitched a few times. He was familiar with this kind of gaze. Every time he passed by the braised meat shop in the alley behind the hospital, he would have this kind of gaze.
"Phew …" Yuan Wei, who was lying on the hospital bed, started snoring.
He Jinxiu and her daughter curiously sized up the doctors. They felt very at ease as they listened to their conversation.
They still did not know how the finger replantation was going. Currently, the finger was wrapped in thick gauze. However, watching the doctors and nurses coming and going always made them feel a little more at ease.
In the next few days, Yu Yuan became the main force of ward rounds.
Lu Wenbin and Ma Yanlin were happy about it.
The workload of ward rounds was huge, especially for the doctors in charge. They had to spend at least two to three hours on it every day. If someone took the initiative to care about a patient, no one would fight for that person.
Ling Ran's surgery volume was still not high. The patients who started leaving one after another were patients who were admitted to the hospital during the early stage of limb replantation. At that time, Ling Ran's surgery frequency was not high. Hence, the number of hospital beds that could be vacated every day was also limited.
Moreover, adding more hospital beds was like a debt. The more he used them, the more pressure he would feel, and he would have to pay it back eventually.
Hence, the few days after Yuan Wei's surgery were also the most relaxing time for Lu Wenbin and Ma Yanlin. On average, each of them performed less than two surgeries every day. Ward rounds for patients who were still recovering were simple, and medical records were easier to write. They could often be written with the four copper coins of surgery. [Ward round today. Patient's symptoms are the same as before. Physical examination is the same as before. Diagnosis is the same as before. Treatment is the same as before.
Their happiness lasted until the hospital posted a new announcement. [Zhu Tongyi, the academician of the China Academy of Engineering, and his group are visiting our hospital.]
