Chapter 2261
2184 Internal Strife in the Medical Team?
Xie Yiren hugged Zheng Ren briefly, then drove off with Chang Yue. Zheng Ren got into Feng Xu Hui's car, and Su Yun asked from behind: "Boss, if the bone cement blocks the main pulmonary artery, what model of thrombectomy catheter are you preparing to use?"
When talking about thrombectomy catheters and models, Feng Xu Hui's ears perked up.
"You're joking, but you actually took it seriously?" Zheng Ren said. "If it's really that serious, they'd go straight to open-chest after the angiogram."
"Damn!" Su Yun glared fiercely at Zheng Ren.
"Common sense must always be upheld; you can't just believe whatever I say." Zheng Ren said with a chuckle.
The car hadn't started yet when Feng Xu Hui saw Lin Ge standing aside, not leaving, and he hesitated a moment.
Su Yun also saw Lin Ge and waved, saying, "Director Lin, this way…"
As he spoke, he turned to look at Zheng Ren and said, "Boss, did that side say they contacted the Medical Department?"
"They said they did."
"Director Lin is a bit embarrassed; he wants to come with us, but the Medical Department hasn't notified them, and going over would look like they're rushing to take credit."
"No problem; just treat him as another member of the Medical Team. If he stays quiet, no one will know he's the head of the Medical Department." Zheng Ren said.
Su Yun thought it over, agreed, jumped out of the car, and let Feng Xu Hui go first.
"Director Lin, you're feeling proud—why not go home and show off to your wife?" Su Yun said with a smile.
"Doctor Su, you're the one saying that." Lin Ge replied, "We're an old married couple—what's there to show off?"
"Director Lin, you wouldn't be worried that the boss's surgery might have problems, would you?"
Speaking of this, Lin Ge straightened his expression and said: "Zheng Lao Ban's surgery will definitely be fine; if it were done at Jizhen, I would just go home directly. But if going out, we still need to guard against villains. Recently Zheng Lao Ban is in the limelight; one can't rule out someone being jealous."
Su Yun smiled, took out her phone and started hailing a ride.
Two cars arrived at Ancient Pagoda Hospital. Located near Ancient Pagoda Park, it used to be just a second-tier hospital. Since Di Du began implementing the big-hospital, specialty policy in the last century, Ancient Pagoda Hospital quickly became a top Orthopedics Department Hospital nationwide.
After getting out of the car, Zheng Ren placed a call.
The phone of a doctor standing at the door rang.
"Professor Tian." Zheng Ren reached out his hand and strode over.
"Zheng Lao Ban, nice to meet you." Professor Tian wore a worried face but still exchanged polite pleasantries: "I've long wanted to check your blocked lumbar horizontal artery; I didn't expect to run into trouble like this."
"How is the patient?" Zheng Ren skipped the pleasantries and went straight to the point.
The patient has a pulmonary embolism; if we stood here talking for an hour, Professor Tian might suffer a heart attack directly.
Professor Tian's spirits lifted, and he immediately said: "The patient is now showing typical pulmonary embolism symptoms and is on ventilator-assisted breathing."
"Let's go up and see." Zheng Ren asked, "How are the patient's family members?"
"Still crying..." Professor Tian said helplessly.
Professor Tian turned and said: "Zheng Lao Ban, please this way."
"Wait a moment." Zheng Ren didn't move, watching as the second car pulled up nearby; Su Yun and Lin Ge got out, and he even saw a figure swinging a ponytail.
This Lin Yuan, how did he come again?
Professor Tian was stunned for a moment; the emergency service quality of Jizhen Emergency is too high—basically they're always ready to fight at a moment's notice.
The phone call lasted less than half an hour, and the whole Medical Team came along……Don't they go off duty to go home? With this quality, it's no wonder Zheng Lao Ban rose so quickly.
Seven or eight people came to participate in emergency rescue; the manpower shouldn't be too abundant.
"Zheng Lao Ban, these are……" Professor Tian was a bit anxious, but he patiently waited for Zheng Lao Ban to introduce the accompanying personnel.
But Zheng Ren had no intention of responding; he directly said: "Professor Tian, let's go see the patient. Arrange the hybrid operating room, prepare extracorporeal circulation, and have the others wait in the operating room."
Professor Tian genuinely liked this decisive and vigorous attitude.
The rescue platform is for saving lives and putting out fires.
Zheng Lao Ban looks young, but he handles matters in a methodical, unambiguous way—truly commendable.
Professor Tian brought Zheng Ren to the ICU; seeing a man and a woman following behind, he knew they might be the Medical Team's elites, and he looked forward to Zheng Lao Ban's Medical Team's performance.
"Professor Tian, how much bone cement did you use during the surgery just now?" Zheng Ren asked while changing clothes.
"2.5ml, I think……"
"Hmm, the amount is small, should be fine." Zheng Ren said.
"Not necessarily." Su Yun said directly: "With such a small amount and such severe symptoms, the likelihood of developing a secondary thrombosis is quite high!"
Su Yun is just the type to automatically raise objections.
Professor Tian's heart sank straight to the bottom of the Mariana Trench.
"2.5ml of bone cement solidified in the pulmonary artery; it's very likely lodged in a branch vessel." Lin Yuan, while habitually guessing, swiftly changed shoes and donned a sterile gown.
"Could a branch pulmonary artery thrombosis cause such severe clinical symptoms? Do you have any idea?" Su Yun said disparagingly.
"You haven't even seen the patient; how do you know whether the symptoms are severe?" Lin Yuan rebutted without fear.
"Ancient Pagoda Hospital has a Thoracic Department; they came straight to us—if you say the symptoms aren't serious, then it's Professor Tian……"
Professor Tian put on his isolation gown, then hearing that two doctors under Zheng Lao Ban had started arguing, he was startled.
What's going on? Internal strife in the Medical Team?
Internal strife in the Medical Team is not uncommon; usually the end result is parting ways, as one mountain cannot hold two tigers. Some stay, others go to other hospitals to lie on firewood and taste gall, to strive and cultivate themselves.
But those are usually disputes among team-leading professors over actual interests; right now two junior doctors are arguing, and Zheng Lao Ban doesn't even intervene?
"Professor Tian, hurry up and change clothes; we're pressed for time."
Just as Professor Tian was expressing surprise, Zheng Ren said calmly.
……
Professor Tian almost cried.
"Zheng Lao Ban, could you first manage your subordinates properly? Don't start fighting here, or we won't be able to perform the surgery."
He thought that but couldn't say it; Professor Tian had no choice but to lead the three people striding into the ICU, arriving at the patient's bedside.
Zheng Ren glanced at the patient on ventilator-assisted breathing, said: "The ventilator mode is wrong; increase the end-expiratory positive pressure ventilation."
Have Strong Dragon and Warfarin been given? If not, hurry and give the medicine; once done, proceed directly to surgery.
Zheng Ren looked at the patient's system panel, saw no mention of a clot, and felt somewhat reassured.
A few medical orders, spoken rapid-fire, bore the imposing air of an unquestionable senior physician.
The ICU doctor stared, then immediately became somewhat displeased.
Who is this, barging in and pointing fingers?
"Zheng Lao Ban of bed 912." Professor Tian, thoughtful, whispered an explanation: "Give the medication as ordered; I'll take responsibility if anything goes wrong."
But before the ICU doctor could move, they saw Su Yun walk over to the ventilator and begin operating it.
