Heavens.
Slowly,
The sky brightened.
Sea City General Hospital was as busy as usual. The sadness, anxiety, anger, and helplessness at night were like an interlude. Other than a few people who remembered it, no one remembered it.
Old Chief Physician Pan went to work and Zheng Ren reported to him what happened last night.
Old Chief Physician Pan, who had been retired for more than thirty years, had long adapted to the changes in society. Other than the fire in his heart, he was not much different from ordinary old chief physicians.
After hearing Zheng Ren's report, Old Chief Physician Pan pondered for a while.
He did not have a particularly good solution and could only take it one step at a time.
Zheng Ren's method of solving the problem was not a problem. Old Chief Physician Pan, who was experienced in life, knew that sometimes this was a solution that could not be solved, but it was indeed useful.
Because he was worried, Old Chief Physician Pan also called Elder San.
The call was connected, and Old Chief Physician Pan did not hide it.
Zheng Ren had just called an hour ago. It would be too hypocritical to talk about family matters now. Moreover, Old Chief Physician Pan and Elder San seemed to be very close, so there was no need to be polite.
A hearty laugh came from the phone. Elder San was very elegant and did not speak loudly, so Zheng Ren could not clearly hear what he said to Old Chief Physician Pan.
After a few more words, Old Chief Physician Pan hung up the phone with a smile.
"It's okay." Old Chief Physician Pan smiled and said, "It's a small news agency. The young man wants to make a name for himself. Old San has already spoken to him."
"Oh." Zheng Ren nodded blankly.
"Also, there's key evidence. Don't worry, they won't make a scene," Old Chief Physician Pan comforted Zheng Ren.
Zheng Ren did not care about the key evidence. Was evidence useful in the face of medical disputes?
Although it would not cause a huge problem, it always made him unhappy.
The story of the farmer and the snake came from Aesop's fables, but it was like a mirror. From time to time, he would find such fables happening around him, and sometimes, he was the person in the story.
Kindness made Zheng Ren choose not to be the snake.
However, he also did not want to be a farmer.
The medical circle had long advocated a blacklist system to blacklist unreasonable medical troublemakers so that they could not see a doctor under the normal medical insurance system.
However, this was only wishful thinking on the part of the indignant doctors. Zheng Ren dared to guarantee that once this system was introduced, who knew how many people would spit saliva.
In any case, he was just a nobody. It was enough for him to take care of himself. As for the rest … he couldn't do anything about it.
Noticing his low spirits, Old Chief Physician Pan patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile, "You really can't hold anything in your stomach. Is this a big deal?"
Zheng Ren smiled bitterly.
"Let's go and take a look at the patients." Old Chief Physician Pan knew that any consolation at the moment would be useless. It was better to maintain a normal work schedule and let time heal the wound in Zheng Ren's heart.
The two of them brought the doctors on duty and started their ward rounds. The patients in the emergency observation room had relatively minor conditions. At least a third of them were people who were waiting for compensation from the other party because of fights or car accidents.
Based on their conditions, they should have left the observation room a long time ago.
However, all kinds of cases of pretending to be sick happened every day. Anyway, before they received compensation, they would never voluntarily leave the hospital.
The doctor naturally didn't want to transfer this resentment to himself, so he just let it be.
This also had some advantages, such as avoiding delayed intracranial hemorrhage.
Every year, there would be two or three patients with delayed intracranial hemorrhage in the emergency observation room.
There were many patients in the emergency observation room, and most of them had minor illnesses.
Soon, Old Chief Physician Pan and Zheng Ren had checked on twenty to thirty patients.
Just as they were about to go to the emergency ward, a few people rushed toward them from the emergency room corridor.
"Doctor, doctor!" a young man who was leading the group shouted anxiously.
He was carrying a person on his back. The person's arms were stiff and his hands were stretched forward like claws, as if trying to grab something.
Zheng Ren's heart tightened. The patient's condition seemed to be very serious.
"This way!" Zheng Ren quickly led the family member who was carrying the patient to the emergency resuscitation room.
After a long time, the family member finally moved the stiff patient from his back to the rescue bed.
The patient's posture was strange. The back of his neck was stiff and his body was arched like a bow. This was clinically known as opisthotonus.
The muscles on his body were stiff and his hands were waving gently in front of his eyes as if trying to grab something. His mouth was moaning, and his expression was fierce and cold.
"Ah …" The nurse who received the patient was a newcomer. She was less than twenty years old and was shocked by the patient's condition.
In her mind, the scene at this moment was very similar to movies like Resident Evil, World War of the Zombies, and the walking dead.
This was a zombie …
If she was bitten, would she become a zombie too?
Could it be …
Was the end of the world?
The young nurse was stunned. The mercury sphygmomanometer in her hand fell to the ground with a loud bang. The sphygmomanometer broke and mercury splattered everywhere.
The family members were also stunned. Was it really a terminal illness?
In any case, the doctors from the township health center could not understand it.
Previously, they had also thought that it might be an incurable disease. However, there was still a glimmer of hope that Sea City General Hospital could diagnose and treat it.
However …
As soon as they arrived at Sea City General Hospital, the young nurse was scared out of her wits.
The young man who was leading the group was stunned, his eyes filled with sadness.
Another woman in her fifties who had followed them in saw the scene and sat on the ground and began to cry.
Hearing the sound of the mercury sphygmomanometer falling to the ground, the patient's muscles tensed up even more.
When she started crying, the moaning from her mouth became more frequent and saliva flowed from the corner of her lips.
Zheng Ren quickly walked between the young nurse and the patient and said seriously, "You, clean up and get your master to take the patient's blood pressure. Remember, the mercury must be found. "
Then, Zheng Ren looked at the patient's family seriously and said, "Unrelated people, leave quickly. The patient can't be stimulated by the sound!"
The young man who carried the patient in had tears in his eyes. He was a little scared and hesitated for a few seconds before asking in a low voice, "Doctor, can he be saved?"
"Not necessarily," Zheng Ren said seriously, "but there's still a chance. You stay, the others leave. Now! "
Now!
Immediately!
Immediately!
This was not the mourning hall. It was not the time for a funeral!
Zheng Ren did not notice that his style was becoming more and more unyielding and similar to Old Chief Physician Pan.
Old Chief Physician Pan frowned and said, "This is a tetanus infection. The mortality rate is very high, up to 50%. Leave one family member and the others leave. "
Half, live.
Half, die.
The young patient's family member listened with a head full of sweat and did not understand the situation.
However, this did not affect his judgment. At least the doctors in Sea City General Hospital said there was still hope of saving the patient.
He quickly chased the others out and the resuscitation room finally quieted down.
"Zheng Ren, have you treated it before?" Old Chief Physician Pan saw Zheng Ren's calm expression and was curious.
