Chapter 2144: with translation of chapter title

2070 Yi Ren not at home, this life can't go on (Alliance Leader sucking flower wine, extra chapter 1)

Zhou Litao cautiously went to the emergency B-ultrasound room for a glance, and cross-checked the left and right sides just examined with the on-duty doctor.

Sometimes, if the left-right problem is overlooked, it can lead to a serious medical accident.

So whether it's an examination or surgery, meticulous doctors will, like those with OCD, repeatedly cross-check.

After repeated cross-checks, the doctor in the B-ultrasound room also felt a bit dazed; he wasn't sure of his own examination, after all, that stone beside the left L2-L3 vertebrae on the plain X-ray was so conspicuous.

They pushed the patient back again and redid the B-ultrasound.

The probe moved almost centimeter by centimeter slowly, and this time the examination was extremely detailed.

But the result was both exhilarating and disappointing.

The doctor in the emergency B-ultrasound room did not mix up left and right; indeed, the left side had no problem at all, while the right side showed clear signs of hydronephrosis and stones.

Now Zhou Litao was at a loss.

The clinical examinations contradict each other—what are we to do?!

We must consult.

Yu Zong came down in a flurry, after reviewing all the tests and doing another physical exam, the patient screamed in pain.

Zhou Litao and Yu Zong stared at each other, both looking bewildered.

The examination is clear: both sides have problems—what now?

Zhou Litao insisted on admitting the patient for a detailed examination, but the patient and family expressed doubts about the diagnosis and auxiliary tests.

This is a sign of an impending dispute; Zhou Litao can only respond carefully, avoiding stimulating the patient and family into an uncontrollable incident.

This will be troublesome.

The two looked at each other helplessly, and Yu Zong said, 'Why not do a CT to take a look?'

'Yu Zong, the patient's family has already raised objections. Doing each test one by one, I worry…'

Zhou Litao didn't finish his sentence.

Actually, there's nothing more to say; everyone understands. Is it the 912 machine that's faulty, or something else? How can the diagnoses from the two auxiliary departments differ?

Yu Zong also had no better idea; after thinking for a few seconds, he still insisted on doing an abdominal CT, sighed, and said, 'I'll go explain to the patient's family.'

'Okay.' Zhou Litao then said, 'Why not give Zheng Lao Ban a call to consult?'

As the time spent interacting with Zheng Lao Ban grew longer, Zhou Litao seemed to have become accustomed to the fact that Zheng Lao Ban is his superior physician.

Yu Zong gave a sly smile: 'Then you make the call; I just bothered Zheng Lao Ban a few days ago.'

'Why?'

'Don't mention it—an ICU patient was about to have the tube removed and transferred out, but then green fluorescent urine appeared,' Yu Zong said.

Whenever Zhou Litao thought of green fluorescent urine, his head started to hurt.

Moreover, that side is the ICU; the trouble there is greater than the current patient whose signs, symptoms, and examinations don't match. One oversight, an undetected condition could cause the patient's condition to plummet, even to death.

'What happened next?' Zhou Litao's gossipy heart burned with fervor.

'Later Zheng Lao Ban said it was a milk issue, nothing serious—stop the meds, go offline, transfer out of ICU. We didn't dare believe it; only after changing the meds and the green fluorescent urine disappeared did we transfer the patient to gastroenterology.'

'Then I'll make the call; you hurry and get the patient ready for the examination,' Zhou Litao said.

……

……

Zheng Ren had already gotten up.

Having no breakfast, after washing up he and Su Yun stared at each other.

Yi Ren not at home—this day is truly impossible to get through!

【They say write quickly……】

Zheng Ren absentmindedly picked up his phone, worried that Yi Ren might be about to tell him some bad news.

Although the likelihood is small, Zheng Ren is still afraid.

'Who is it, calling so early?' Su Yun asked lazily.

'Manager Zhou.' Zheng Ren, seeing it wasn't Yi Ren's call, immediately perked up.

'Hello, Manager Zhou.'

'Oh? Please elaborate.'

'Okay, I understand. First give the patient a CT; I'll go to the community hospital to check on the patient and then come over.'

After saying that, Zheng Ren hung up.

'What's up?' Su Yun wasn't too concerned; hearing Zheng Ren speak, she knew it wasn't a big deal.

If it were a critical emergency, there would be no time to go to the community hospital for a glance.

'The patient complains of left flank pain, and the upright X-ray confirms a stone shadow near the left L2-L3 vertebrae. But physical exam and B-ultrasound suggest the right ureter and right kidney are problematic, so I called to ask.'

'Oh?' Su Yun suddenly perked up, 'Kind of interesting.'

'Let's go, let's go.' Zheng Ren urged.

'Boss, you should make something to eat.' Su Yun nagged, 'Not eating all morning makes you prone to gallstones.'

'Instant noodles?' Zheng Ren laughed, 'I can go a day without eating and it's fine.'

'Going to negotiate on an empty stomach is simply inhumane. Just as we were talking, my stomach growled—do you know how embarrassing that is?' Su Yun looked down on Zheng Ren, saying, 'Others might think we don't even have money for food.'

'No problem, hurry up—after rounds, let's go take a look at the emergency department. The CT should be back by then, and we can confirm what the problem is.' Zheng Ren ignored Su Yun's words entirely, talking and talking, already having reached the emergency department.

Su Yun helplessly stood up, changed shoes, and went downstairs.

The big lazy and little lazy don't cook; in this regard of relying on each other, Su Yun knows she definitely can't outlast the Boss.

That guy is basically the type who is too lazy to even eat.

Pengxi Township Hospital—he hasn't eaten for days and still refuses to eat. If it weren't for Director Jiang's pleading request for him to eat, Su Yun estimates the Boss wouldn't even come down from the operating table.

He also found this convincing. People say a person is iron, food is steel, but his boss lives on sheer integrity—who can he reason with?

He went to the community hospital for a quick look; Zheng Ren had something on his mind, so he only did a brief check. Yesterday's post-op patients had no serious issues, and he then left in a hurry.

The TIPS surgery was already on track, and even Zheng Ren found it hard to make any small adjustments to the procedure.

"I'm going to give them a lesson today; are you interested?" Su Yun asked.

"Aren't you going to negotiate? A lesson for over a hundred people—where are you planning to give it? At the Medical University Affiliated Hospital?"

"Well, I'll also fulfill my duties as an associate professor and let the students sit in on a lesson." Su Yun blew out a breath, her black hair fluttering above her forehead.

It seemed as if he were already standing at the podium, enthusiastically demonstrating anatomy and explaining how to perform the TIPS procedure.

Zheng Ren had no interest in it; if Su Yun went to negotiate, he wouldn't mind giving the lesson instead.

But Su Yun was clearly more interested in giving the lesson, so let her do it. This guy's anatomy fundamentals are rock solid, so giving a lesson is naturally trivial.

Arriving at the emergency department, Director Yu and Manager Zhou waited in the hallway, looking expectantly.

Seeing Zheng Ren and Su Yun enter, the two went up to meet them.

"Is the CT done?" Zheng Ren asked directly without any pleasantries.
