623 Wrong, can start over.

「Boss, awesome. 」 Su Yun saw Professor Rudolf Wagner leave, came over to Zheng Ren with a smile, gave a thumbs up, and praised: "Your use of the goading tactic is really proficient."

「There's no goading tactic. 」 Zheng Ren said calmly: "To be honest, don't let Fugui'er be embarrassed. What I said before was simple, no wonder he has doubts."

「Tch, you think by saying that he won't have doubts? 」

「Do your best, what else can I do? Do we have to barge in and directly give Mei Ha'er Shou Bing? When doing the Shou Bing, the heart could stop at any moment. If there's an opportunity to do it, you need to be ready for defibrillation. 」 Zheng Ren said.

「Regarding myocardial current research, I am one of the most professional experts, Boss, you can rest assured. 」 Su Yun clenched his right fist and tapped his left chest muscle, making a thumping sound.

As for Cardiothoracic Surgery expertise, Su Yun is still quite confident.

「Knowing you're an expert, I dare say the Shou Bing success rate is high. 」 Zheng Ren was a bit tired, slowly closed his eyes, as if talking in his sleep, said: "To me, this is definitely untrustworthy; if it were me, I wouldn't believe it either. So I can't cooperate with their rotating doctors; once cardiac arrest occurs during the operation, I'll have to rely on you."

「Rest assured. 」

The two's conversation ends here; whatever they say is just nonsense, meaningless.

Zheng Ren closed his eyes to rest, while Su Yun was energetic and chatting on his phone.

In the observation room, all was quiet. The monitoring doctor attentively watched vital signs; nurses occasionally entered the ward to change Mei Ha'er's Vein nutrient medication.

A few minutes later, a sharp, piercing alarm suddenly sounded in the ward.

Without warning, almost all the machines were howling hoarsely. The doctor outside in the observation room jumped up immediately and rushed into the ward.

On the screen in the observation room showed all the instrument readings. Zheng Ren frowned, opened his eyes, and saw the ECG waveform had turned into a chaotic mess.

Sinus rhythm no longer exists; the ECG Monitor shows rapid ventricular fibrillation.

Ventricular fibrillation is a rapid, weak contraction of the ventricular muscle or an uncoordinated rapid quiver.

The result is that the heart beats but no blood is pumped out; heart sounds and pulse disappear; blood perfusion to the heart, brain, etc., and surrounding tissues stops; Adams-Stokes syndrome occurs; the most severe patients may suffer sudden death within a few minutes, even within one minute.

Simply put, Mei Ha'er's life has reached its end.

Su Yun jumped up like a spring, as if he were in the ICU of Haicheng Shi Yiyuan, wanting to rush in to join the rescue.

But in less than a second, he stopped his steps, and a sheepish smile appeared on his handsome face.

「Forgot, not at home. 」 Su Yun said.

Zheng Ren said nothing, tightly staring at the busy and orderly rescue behind the transparent glass.

One doctor performed external chest compressions; a nurse drew medication and injected it into the patient's Vein channel as quickly as possible.

Another doctor quickly picked up the defibrillator and swiftly and evenly applied conductive gel to it.

The upper edge of the STERNVM electrode pad is placed at the second right intercostal space of the sternum; the upper edge of the APEX electrode pad is placed at the fourth left midaxillary intercostal space.

All operations were extremely professional and swift.

External chest compressions were ineffective; defibrillation was immediately performed.

Faintly, Mei Ha'er's body twitched once; the waveform shown on the monitor remained ventricular fibrillation, with no change.

Zheng Ren forgot that this was the ward of the Karolinska Institute's Medical Surgical Research Institute in Stockholm, and also forgot that the patient being rescued inside was Mei Ha'er.

In his view, there was only the ongoing rescue, striving to save a life.

Compressions, medication, and defibrillation had no effect; all commonly used clinical methods and means were employed.

If we can't get past this, the patient will die.

Zheng Ren quickly entered the System Space and clicked on Surgical Training.

And as usual, the experimental subject provided by the system was exactly the same as the recent patient's symptoms and physical condition.

This point, Big Pig Trotter is still quite considerate.

Zheng Ren quickly entered the System Operating Room, followed the operating procedure, and picked up the defibrillator.

At the standard position, Zheng Ren simultaneously pressed the discharge button with both thumbs to deliver an electric shock for defibrillation.

Just as imagined, the defibrillation failed.

Vein injection of beta-blockers, adjusting various drug concentrations, still had no effect.

The experimental subject's heart rate still showed ventricular fibrillation, and after a few minutes, the ECG waveform gradually turned into a flat line.

The experimental subject died.

Zheng Ren frowned, standing in the System Operating Room, began to think.

Countless journals and literature surfaced in his mind; various complex cases provided Zheng Ren with directions for thought.

Regarding the experimental subject's condition, external chest compressions were definitely ineffective.

Zheng Ren had told the 120 doctors in Haicheng and Yuandian County about the rescue methods for non-cardiac cardiac arrest.

As long as we give it some strength, we can quickly solve the problem.

The standard preparation time of 20 seconds needed before defibrillation can be avoided without waste.

However, the experimental subject's condition was due to dwindling vitality, and the heart's bioelectric current had weakened to a certain extent, leading to ventricular fibrillation.

This kind of…

Perhaps it's truly unsalvageable.

But Zheng Ren was unwilling to accept it; Mei Ha'er could still undergo Shou Bing; dying like this would be hard on his conscience.

After deep contemplation, Zheng Ren suddenly had an extremely bold idea in his mind.

Abandoning medication, Zheng Ren increased the defibrillator's direct current from the standard 200J to 300J. The electrode pads were pressed onto the experimental subject's body, and he simultaneously pressed the discharge button with both thumbs to deliver an electric shock for defibrillation.

「Bang」 sound.

The experimental subject bounced up on the Operating table and then fell back down. The spots where the bilateral electrode pads were placed became somewhat charred, but the heart rate only recovered for a moment before ventricular fibrillation recurred.

Still not enough, but the direction seems correct.

Zheng Ren frowned and increased the defibrillator's current again.

400J!

But this time, the experimental subject's heartbeat stopped directly…

Zheng Ren cursed inwardly, the experimental subject had been electrocuted to death by himself!

Fortunately this is the system operating room, fortunately the object of my operation is the experimental subject rather than a patient.

Mistaken, it can be redone, how fortunate this is.

Zheng Ren seemed to have grasped a certain pattern, his mind began calculating the relationship between the heart's bioelectric current and the defibrillator's current intensity.

Several similar articles also surfaced.

After quick calculation, Zheng Ren adjusted the defibrillator's energy to 330J, then began defibrillation.

With a "thump~", the experimental subject "jumped" on the operating table, then his heavy body crashed onto the operating table.

Zheng Ren immediately turned his head to look at the ECG monitor.

A fresh ECG waveform appeared on the left side of the ECG monitor, the heart rate returned to sinus rhythm.

Although it was in the system space, Zheng Ren seeing the sinus rhythm waveform felt so beautiful.

Success! That's how it is.
