Zheng Ren was stunned and immediately recalled the patient's scans.
There were no clear problems on the CT scan of the lungs. There was only a small amount of inflammation, infection, and wet lungs.
Zheng Ren's first impression of the ICU chief resident screaming at the top of her lungs was that there was a large amount of blood in the lungs.
Just like a person who had fallen into water, once there was a large amount of blood in the airway, it would cause the patient's gas-exchange dysfunction and eventually 'drown'!
This was a very serious situation, but it had only been ten minutes since the CT room. How could there be such a drastic change?!
The tracheal tube was inserted and the patient began coughing violently.
Bloody foam spurted out of the patient's mouth in spots that were at least half a meter high.
Zheng Ren was stunned.
The ICU chief resident's face and body were covered in bloody spots, but she did not have time to think about it. The suction tube was inserted into the tracheal tube and a large amount of bloody foam was quickly sucked out.
It had been less than ten minutes since the CT scan and the lungs were bleeding!
The patient's condition was progressing rapidly, which meant that the ICU and Zheng Ren did not have much time left.
Zheng Ren stood where he was and looked at the patient.
The System's diagnosis was astonishingly — hemoptysis!
A blood vessel in the lung had ruptured … Zheng Ren's hands were a little cold.
The ICU chief resident's treatment was flawless, so there was nothing Zheng Ren could do to help.
The patient's bedside was full of people, so he could only stand quietly by the side and try to figure out what kind of toxin could cause such a clinical reaction.
Ten minutes later, the patient had started vomiting blood from the CT room to the ICU!
Zheng Ren guessed that it was due to his luck. Otherwise, the patient would have been dead by the time he reached the ICU if he had hemoptysis on the way.
What was going on?
He tried hard to recall all the cases he had encountered and heard about.
However, Zheng Ren gained nothing in a short period of time. He could not find any case that could be related to the current situation.
"Ventilator," the ICU chief resident said calmly. The ICU chief resident said calmly. As the bloody sputum decreased, she put the patient on a ventilator and began to administer medication.
Soon, as the muscle relaxant entered the bloodstream, the patient stopped struggling and began to breathe with the help of the ventilator.
"Ask the patient if he has any immediate family members. If not, call the medical administration division."
"I'll go ask," Zheng Ren said immediately.
The ICU chief resident was stunned for a moment. Then, she said seriously, "Thank you, Boss Zheng."
"What do you plan to do next?"
"His condition is progressing too quickly. I think it's chemical poisoning. Let's apply a blood filter first. I'll … "As the ICU's chief resident spoke, his eyes lit up." Boss Zheng, can you help me ask about the patient's previous medical history and see if there are any new discoveries? "
"Okay." Zheng Ren nodded.
"Then I'll try to resuscitate him inside." Said the ICU chief resident. Then, without further ado, he began to instruct the other doctors to get to work.
He took out his phone and dialed a number.
"Aren't you going to ask?"
"Report to Chief Lin first," Zheng Ren said. "If the patient can't find the cause of the disease, it will probably take one to two hours."
One to two hours was already considered a long shot, but to have a massive hemorrhage in his lungs after just ten minutes … it would be a miracle if he could even hold on for another half an hour.
At this point, both of their hearts were heavy.
As Zheng Ren walked out, he quickly analyzed the patient's condition.
The patient's condition was progressing so quickly that it was like a roller coaster.
When he was in the Emergency Department, he could still talk and scold himself for being a hooligan. However, after saying a few words, he went into hypovolemic shock and went into a coma. When he arrived at the ICU, he began to cough up blood.
This was a lung, and the bleeding of the digestive tract would probably appear soon.
The hematoma on the left upper abdomen was now considered to be caused by a small branch of the splenic artery rupture.
Zheng Ren sped up his movements. The phone rang. Every time it rang, he was very anxious for Lin Ge to pick it up immediately.
"Boss Zheng!" Lin Ge's surprised voice was heard. There was kindness and intimacy in his surprise. Did it mean that he kept calling him in a short period of time?
"Chief Lin, I'm in the ICU. I just sent a patient who works in another city to see a doctor. His condition is very bad," Zheng Ren said very simply.
This sentence meant that the patient had no money and no family members, and the medical administration division had to bear all the responsibility.
"Okay, I understand. You go ahead with your work. I'll go to the scene to take a look." Lin Ge knew the severity of the matter. He could tell from Zheng Ren's tone that the matter was urgent.
Go take a look immediately and direct the resuscitation at the scene. With the people from the medical administration division at the scene, the clinicians could do whatever they wanted.
No matter how much they hated the people from the medical administration division, they could not deny their position in the hearts of clinicians.
Zheng Ren hung up the phone and quickly walked to the door.
"Boss, why do I feel that …" Su Yun was a little hesitant and paused.
"What do you think it is?"
"Let's ask first. I just have some considerations," Su Yun said.
Zheng Ren did not ask in detail. Instead of asking Su Yun, it was better to ask the patient's colleagues.
"Are you Chen Zehui's colleagues?" Zheng Ren opened the door of the ICU and asked hurriedly when he saw a few white-collar workers in the city.
There were men and women in this group, and they seemed to be in a state of shock. They rarely came into contact with the hospital and were all frightened by the change in Chen Zehui's condition.
However, they did not know that the patient's condition in the ICU had changed. He was already on the verge of life and death.
The few of them did not look good. A man in his thirties seemed to be the leader of a department and was also the core of these people.
He first smiled apologetically and asked carefully, "Doctor, what's Xiao Hui's illness?"
"Let's go to the consultation room and talk." Zheng Ren led them to the room next door. Zhou Litao was busy. Although he wanted to hear how Boss Zheng communicated with the patient's family, he was still worried. He greeted him and ran back.
After they sat down, Zheng Ren looked at the man in his thirties and asked, "Who are you to the patient?"
"I'm the leader of the project team," the man said. "Doctor, I have to inform Xiao Hui's family."
"Wait a moment. There's a change in the situation inside. Let me ask for specific details." Although Zheng Ren was anxious, his expression was very calm. His mood unknowingly infected the people present.
"Doctor, what's Xiao Hui's illness?" a young boy asked anxiously.
"I suspect it's poisoning. Tell me what strange things have happened to her recently," Zheng Ren said.
Seeing the shocked expression on everyone's face, Zheng Ren thought for a moment and said, "All the details, if there's any change from before, tell me."
"No … If there's anything, it's that she asked for leave two days ago. Later, she said it was kidney stones," the team leader said. "At first, I didn't believe it. She's so young. How could she have kidney stones?"
"Later, you saw the test results?"
"Huh? Doctor, isn't it kidney stones? How did it become poisoning? "one of them did not answer Zheng Ren's question.
