In a normal hospital, the gynecology and obstetrics departments and emergency departments were famous for being fatigued, especially the gynecology department. Due to the fact that most births took place at night, the duty of the gynecology department became especially heavy.
Moreover, unlike departments like the Department of Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic Surgery, where nine out of ten people on duty would end up sleeping, the Obstetrics Department was always flooded with patients, and there was never a day where they could sleep peacefully.
Every day, when Ling Ran performed surgeries at three or four o 'clock in the morning, the doctors he saw the most were gynecologists. Some obstetricians and gynecologists could perform seven or eight Caesarean sections in a single night. They would perform Caesarean sections from night to morning, and they would stay up all night like a little prince in a nightclub.
Of course, the obstetrics and gynecology department was not quiet during the day.
As soon as Ling Ran arrived, he saw the elevator sending two pregnant women in one go.
There were even more family members in the corridor. They swayed left and right and blocked the way abnormally. All of them were carrying things in their hands and were in high spirits. They did not look like they were going to the hospital.
"Doctor Ling, over here." The director of the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology was a senior chief physician, Fang Pingzhu. She was a nun whose wrinkles were smoothed out because of her weight.
Similar to the other departments in the hospital, after the Obstetrics and Gynecology Department was split into the Gynecology Department and the Obstetrics Department, the Obstetrics Department experienced another split a few years ago. To put it bluntly, it was just because a few associate chief physicians had grown up and wanted to become department directors. Hence, after all sorts of trouble, in order to maintain its competitiveness, Yun Hua Hospital had no choice but to split the Obstetrics Department into the Obstetrics and Gynecology Department, the Obstetrics Department, and the Obstetrics and Gynecology Department. From then on, two associate chief physicians who led the groups were promoted to department directors.
As for the other two deputy chief physicians who did not manage to be promoted from deputy chief physicians to chief physicians, they could only leave dejectedly and find hospitals that lacked manpower to be chief physicians.
However, the department director of Yun Hua Hospital and the department director of a prefecture-level tertiary Grade A hospital were never the same.
Fang Pingzhu was the earliest chief obstetrics department director, and she had known Department Director Hong for a long time. Because of this, coupled with the fact that Department Director Hong's eldest niece was the one who was bleeding profusely, even if Fang Pingzhu did not want Ling Ran to do it, she had to let him do it.
Moreover, Fang Pingzhu had to do her best to make things convenient for them so that they would not become the subject of gossip.
Doctors were different from other professions. In many industries, whether to help or not, or whether to be accommodating or not, most of the time, it involved property. It was nothing more than a relationship of more or less. To put it more elegantly, it was nothing more than face, dignity, happiness, and so on.
Doctors were different. They were often involved in life and death situations. For example, if Fang Pingzhu did not give Ling Ran a hand and Department Director Hong's eldest niece could not be saved because of this, Fang Pingzhu really did not know how to explain it to Department Director Hong. Needless to say, the girl's parents were in a bad mood.
Ling Ran was recognized as an expert in bleeding control in Yun Hua Hospital, and the expert who came from Beijing for freelance surgery had proven this point with his bloody face. Compared to the General Surgery Department and the Department of Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic Surgery, the Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics and Gynecology was different, but in terms of difficulty, the Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics and Pancreatic Surgery was much worse than the Department of Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic Surgery. Fang Pingzhu did not want to test Ling Ran's bleeding control ability either.
The test was here, but what was the test for?
How did freelance surgeons come to be? At the most dangerous time, the patient's family members were invited over. Even if they knew that it was against the rules, the hospital and doctors would still have to give up their positions to freelance surgeons from other hospitals or other places.
Fang Pingzhu was not that shameless to not use the hospital's hemostasis expert.
Of course, she wasn't too happy either.
Fortunately, the patient hadn't arrived yet, so she didn't do anything. At least she didn't lose face.
"The ambulance will arrive in two or three minutes." A young doctor came over and reported.
Fang Pingzhu hummed in acknowledgment. She looked at Ling Ran and said, "Doctor Ling, what do you think? Should we send the patient here or directly to the operating theater?"
The operating theater she mentioned was the operating theater on the surgical floor.
"There are two operating theaters in the Obstetrics and Gynecology Department, right? If there's time, send the patient to the Obstetrics and Gynecology Department. " If it was necessary to send the patient to the surgical floor, Ling Ran did not need to come to the Obstetrics and Gynecology Department. It would be better to directly do it in the emergency room.
However, there were still some differences between the Obstetrics and ordinary emergency departments. The biggest difference was that the patient was pregnant with another life. No matter what kind of surgery was carried out, they not only needed to save the mother's life, but also the unborn child's life.
In terms of various equipment, especially the quality of nurses and other support staff, the Obstetrics and Gynecology Department were more suitable than the Emergency Department.
Fang Pingzhu hummed in acknowledgment and said, "Nowadays, Caesareans are all performed on the surgical floor. There are empty operating theaters."
The operating theaters of the Obstetrics and Gynecology Department of Yun Hua Hospital were built during the craziest era for Caesareans. Unlike the Orthopedics Department, which had a lot of income from medical consumables, and the Neurology Department, which had a lot of income from drugs, the Obstetrics and Gynecology Department could not use a lot of drugs, and there were no medical consumables available. Therefore, Caesareans were basically the income source of the Obstetrics and Gynecology Department.
Before the health system set a limit on the proportion of Caesareans, hospitals like Yun Hua Hospital could continuously perform Caesareans for pregnant women.
At that time, the new inpatient building had not been built. The Obstetrics and Gynecology Department disliked the low efficiency of operating theaters, so they built their own operating theaters to improve the efficiency. At the same time, they performed Caesareans, they also performed surgery such as ectopic pregnancy and hysterectomy. In addition, some Obstetrics surgeries were indeed very urgent. Fang Pingzhu became famous because she cut out the hypoxic fetus in the ward within twenty seconds and saved the unborn little life.
After the proportion of Caesareans was strictly limited, the operating theaters of the Obstetrics and Gynecology Department in Yun Hua Hospital only performed surgeries such as hysteroscopy. The efficiency could not be compared to before, but all the instruments and equipment were available. It was just that they were a little old.
"Prepare more blood." As Ling Ran spoke, he turned around and said to Fang Pingzhu, "Department Director Fang, check the patient later. If the patient can tolerate it, give her general anesthesia and perform an exploratory laparotomy. Zuo Cidian, talk to the patient's family. Sign the notice of critical illness and the informed consent form. Also, tell the family that the patient's condition is critical. If necessary, a hysterectomy will be performed. "
"Yes," Zuo Cidian answered loudly. His forty-three-year-old face was as determined as a student going through military training. It attracted the attention of the doctors and nurses from the Obstetrics and Gynecology Department.
Zuo Cidian raised his head proudly. He had been thinking about this flattery for a long time, and he had been waiting for it for a month.
In front of the doctors and nurses from other departments, giving Ling Ran face was probably more useful than saying a bunch of flattering words.
Zuo Cidian did not care about the little bit of face he lost.
He was a forty-three-year-old resident doctor, and he was doing things that young doctors in their early twenties should do. How could he still have face?
The young doctors below whispered to each other, and Fang Pingzhu looked at Ling Ran without any surprise.
As the department director of the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Fang Pingzhu had never enjoyed such "respectful" treatment until her assistant lecturers betrayed her.
"Department Director Fang, if we want to perform a hysterectomy, we'll have to trouble you." Ling Ran was very familiar with the anatomical structure of the abdomen, but he had never performed a hysterectomy before.
Fang Pingzhu hummed vaguely. She was more or less influenced by Zuo Cidian.
