Zheng Ren switched modes smoothly. He had just been arguing with the professor about a new diagnostic method.
When he heard that a patient had cardiac arrest, he turned into an athlete and ran, following closely behind Su Yun.
Without waiting for the elevator, they ran down the fire escape to the emergency department.
As soon as they reached the first floor, they heard the high-pitched screech of the ambulance.
"You go to the resuscitation room. I'll bring the patient there!" Zheng Ren shouted.
Su Yun did not say anything. Without looking back, he ran straight to the resuscitation room.
The ambulance arrived shortly after. The stretcher trolley was already waiting in the emergency corridor.
The patient was wheeled out. Zheng Ren glanced at the System panel on the upper right corner of his vision.
It was pale white instead of red.
F * ck!
Zheng Ren cursed in his heart. Was the patient dead?
There was not even a diagnosis! The interface was not red or blood-red, but pale white.
This was the first time Zheng Ren had encountered such a situation.
At the same time, the System's mission notification rang in Zheng Ren's ears.
[Emergency Mission: Revive the Dead, Heal the Dead.
[Mission Details: Resuscitate the Chest Stab Patient with Cardiac Arrest.
[Mission Reward: Master Emergency First Aid Skill Book, 1 Gold Treasure Chest.
[Mission Time: 3 hours.]
Zheng Ren did not read the mission details carefully, but when he saw the System's announcement, he felt a little more at ease.
The patient could still be saved. Otherwise, the System would not have given him this mission.
Through this period of contact, Zheng Ren felt that the System was still very kind. There were no missions that could not be completed for the time being.
A woman in her thirties followed the first-aid ambulance.
Her hair was disheveled. She followed the stretcher trolley like a madwoman, crying her heart out as she ran.
Zheng Ren pulled the stretcher trolley and rushed to the resuscitation room as fast as he could. The woman could not keep up with Zheng Ren's speed. Her high heels twisted and she fell to the ground.
At that moment, no one cared about her.
After entering the resuscitation room, a nurse came up with scissors and cut the patient's coat.
A small incision appeared in front of Zheng Ren.
It was on the left side of the sternum, below the left breast.
It was too late! The patient's heart had stopped for at least four minutes. The brain was about to lose blood.
There was not much time left for Zheng Ren!
Zheng Ren tore off a pair of sterile gloves and put them on hastily. As he probed with his fingers, he shouted, "Knife!"
Su Yun was already holding the blade in his hand. He was about to step forward when he heard Zheng Ren's words, so he handed the blade to him.
Zheng Ren probed with his fingers and touched the heart.
It should be a cardiac tamponade!
He grabbed a handful of iodophor and wiped it on the left side of the patient's chest wall. Then, the blade slid down.
"Ah!" A scream came from the door.
Zheng Ren ignored it. The blade had cut very deep. There was no time for blunt dissection or anything like a pneumothorax.
"Tell the operating theater to prepare for surgery!" Zheng Ren roared as he opened the patient's chest.
His heart was red, and it was as big as two fists in his chest.
The blade in Zheng Ren's hand made a cut on the pericardium.
Under the immense pressure, a dark red liquid sprayed to the roof like a fountain.
The room was stained with blood!
Not only were the patient's family members and the onlookers surprised, but even the doctors and nurses in the resuscitation room had never seen such a situation.
Zheng Ren tossed the razor blade into the surgical bag and reached into the patient's chest to apply pressure on the heart with his bare hands.
After the cardiac tamponade was resolved, there was less resistance. Zheng Ren squeezed the heart twice and it started beating again.
At the same time, Su Yun had already intubated the patient's trachea and pinched the balloon to help the patient breathe.
"Operating theater!" Zheng Ren did not dare to take his hand out of the patient's chest.
Su Yun immediately pushed the stretcher trolley and asked someone to lead the way. They ran straight to the elevator.
"Wah …" As soon as the stretcher trolley left the resuscitation room, the woman in her thirties hugged the stretcher trolley and started crying.
It was heart-wrenching, like a cuckoo crying blood. It was an indescribable grief.
Zheng Ren did not empathize with her at all. The stretcher trolley was already in a hurry after being hugged by the woman. How could it run fast while dragging a person?
The patient's chest was now open, and it was an open pneumothorax!
This state could not be maintained for long.
"Let go!" Zheng Ren roared.
The woman's world seemed to have collapsed with the man's death. She could not hear anything and could not sense anyone's presence. She instinctively wanted to get as close to her lover as possible, even if it meant watching him die.
"F * ck!" A wave of anger rushed to the top of Zheng Ren's head.
There was no time to explain. He kicked the woman away and directed the stretcher trolley to run away.
The surrounding onlookers were dumbfounded. Was this considered beating up the patient's family? Was there still such an amazing doctor in the world?
The other medical staff were also dumbfounded. The patient was sent to the operating theater and they were fine.
A few nurses came up to check on the woman's condition and helped Zheng Ren clean up the mess. Chief Zheng had been domineering and handsome just now.
The stretcher trolley was pushed into the operating theater. Chu Yanran immediately intubated the patient. Zheng Ren left a deep venous access before changing his clothes. At that moment, Su Yun had already changed into the isolation suit and was scrubbing in.
The team in the operating theater was like a sophisticated machine, operating at high speed. It was extremely efficient. When Zheng Ren changed into the isolation suit as fast as he could and arrived at the operating theater, Su Yun had already laid out the sheet and started the surgery.
This kind of emergency treatment did not have strict sterility requirements. If it was infected, it would have been infected when the heart was being compressed under direct vision.
What Zheng Ren needed now was time.
Time was what Zheng Ren lacked the most.
Time!
Time!
Time!
The thoracotomy machine opened the ribs. The patient's heart was beating vigorously as if it had been stifled by the cardiac tamponade earlier. It was only now that it was bursting with life and energy.
The double-lumen intubation tube was inserted and the ventilator started working. One side of the lung deflated under Chu Yanran's manipulation.
This time, it was clearer. There was a one-centimeter wound on the left atrium and blood was flowing out.
The bleeding would not kill the patient for a while. Zheng Ren could finally breathe a sigh of relief.
He reached out and placed the hemostatic forceps on his hand.
Zheng Ren used the hemostatic forceps to probe the wound. It was about two centimeters deep.
"Can I just suture it?" Zheng Ren asked.
"Yes." Su Yun's sterile cap was already drenched in sweat. The black hair on his forehead was already sticking weakly to his forehead. "It's fine. There are no nerves here."
Zheng Ren was not familiar with the anatomy of the heart, but Su Yun was.
If a person who could perform a heart transplant could not even handle such a simple thing, there was no point in performing a heart transplant.
"Then suture it." Zheng Ren rarely did not reach out his hand. Su Yun was stunned for a moment, then reached out and said, "Small needle, thin thread."
Before his voice faded, the needle holder was placed in his hand.
Small needle, thin thread, and long needle holder.
This was the first time Su Yun had been treated like this. It had never happened even when he was in Imperial Capital.
Sigh, Zheng Ren was really lucky. If the surgery was done like this, it would be as comfortable as it could be.
…
…
This surgery was one of my first resuscitation in 2003. The patient survived and became my buddy. Uh, sister-in-law was kicked by me. She didn't even remember it.
The incident was completely true. The blood must have been in the room. It was like a shower, all over the body. 8)
