Chapter 134 Don't stop everyone from saving people
"Dr. Du, is there anything I can do to help?" the head nurse asked.
"Xiaoli, you've come at the perfect time. Help me take off the child's clothes, and then use a towel dampened with warm water to wipe the child's body, especially under the armpits..." Du Ruoxia said quickly, and wanted to put a fever-reducing patch on the child, but it was inconvenient.
I had no choice but to take another towel, wet it, and apply it to the child's forehead.
The child woke up at this time and was wailing loudly. Perhaps because he didn't see his relatives, he cried even more bitterly.
"The patient's family members should come in and comfort the child." Du Ruoxia asked Shen Meina to go in and comfort the child, while she quickly came out to write a prescription. Actually, she did not recommend that such a young child receive an IV drip. Now that the child had taken antipyretics, she could observe the situation first.
With some more medication to alleviate the symptoms and careful care, it should be almost healed. We can only take it slowly.
The prescription was given to the child's father. "Take the prescription to pay the bill, then go to the pharmacy to pick up the medicine, and bring it back as soon as possible."
Liang Guodong pursed his lips, took the prescription, and ran out.
Du Ruoxia went in to help, while Xiaoli wanted to ask if the child's condition was so serious that he didn't need an IV drip, but she didn't feel comfortable asking.
After all, if she asked that question, it would be a questioning of Dr. Du's medical skills, so even though she didn't understand, she didn't ask.
"Did the child eat anything before coming here?" Du Ruoxia asked, remembering that the child would need to take medicine later.
"No, I vomit everything I eat, the baby doesn't want to eat." It's all her fault as a mother, she doesn't have enough breast milk, and the baby grew up on rice water. Thinking about this makes her feel terrible.
Du Ruoxia made a cup of milk powder and brought it in.
"If you don't mind, feed the baby some formula first, and then continue with the medicine." She wasn't being overly kind; she just couldn't bear to do that to such a small baby.
This family clearly doesn't live in good conditions.
Let's forget about asking them to spend money on baby formula.
Shen Meina's lips moved slightly, but she still accepted the cup of milk powder, keeping her gratitude for it hidden in her heart.
I carefully fed the baby formula. I don't know if the baby was starving after vomiting or what, but once the baby tasted the formula, he started sucking on it with big gulps.
The little mouth also made a forceful sound.
The fact that the child was willing to eat was a good sign, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Shen Meina was extremely grateful to Du Ruoxia, and a smile finally appeared on her face.
"The child is sweating, and seems to have a lower fever," Xiaoli exclaimed softly, finding it truly miraculous.
Shen Meina hurriedly touched the child's forehead and body, and found that the fever had subsided, finally putting her mind at ease.
"Dr. Du, thank you so much, thank you so much too, and thank you to this doctor as well, thank you both."
Du Ruoxia said, "Comrade, there's no need for that. Although the child's fever has subsided a bit, he still needs to be observed. He can only go home when the fever has completely gone down."
She didn't arrange for them to be hospitalized, since it depends on their circumstances, and she felt that the family couldn't afford to pay any more money.
That was indeed the case. Liang Guodong took out all the money from his pocket, and it was just enough to pay for the medicine.
After bringing the medicine back, the child only tasted one bite and refused to touch it again.
She closed her eyes, opened her mouth, and cried desperately.
Liang Guodong felt so sorry for the baby that he didn't want to feed it anymore.
Shen Meina hardened her heart and forced the child to swallow the contents of her mouth.
"Take the child's temperature. This comrade stays, the other comrade can leave." Du Ruoxia placed the thermometer under the child's armpit, then gestured with her chin to let Liang Guodong leave, indicating that so many people weren't needed.
Then she went out herself, and the head nurse, seeing that there was nothing for her to do, went to attend to her own business.
"I got three days' worth of medicine. The doctor should have told you how to take it when you picked it up. Remember to take it after meals, don't take too much, and don't take it randomly. Remember to take it on time. If there are still problems after three days, remember to bring the child back for a follow-up appointment." Du Ruoxia made detailed notes, asked for some basic information about the child, registered it, and then began to explain to the child's father.
Liang Guodong nodded repeatedly, "Dr. Du, I'm so sorry about what happened earlier."
Du Ruoxia waved her hand, "It's okay."
Then I calmly sat down and took a sip of water. It had been so long since I'd been this busy, and I was a little unaccustomed to it.
The patients at Dr. Gao's clinic all saw and heard their conversation.
I also realized something: this Dr. Du looks young, but his medical skills seem quite good.
For most people, a child with a fever of 40 degrees Celsius wouldn't have such an easy time bringing the fever down and stabilizing.
Even an IV drip wouldn't be this fast.
Moreover, administering IV fluids to such young children is the most troublesome part. They can't find a vein, and the children cry incessantly. It's exhausting for both the adults and the children, and it's a headache for the doctors as well.
Every time I encounter this, it's a chaotic mess.
I've never seen anyone resolve a problem so quickly and easily, like Dr. Du.
So, some people started walking towards Du Ruoxia.
Gao Yuyang breathed a sigh of relief. "Go, go, everyone go see Dr. Du."
At this point, the idea that doctors would receive additional commissions for treating patients had not yet been mentioned.
So Gao Yuyang couldn't be happier.
Even if there were additional commissions, he wouldn't want to do it; he just wanted to quietly treat minor illnesses.
Du Ruoxia speaks gently and asks detailed and serious questions during medical examinations, and those who come to her for treatment immediately sense the difference.
Furthermore, Dr. Du doesn't like to prescribe IV drips, but she will respect a patient's request.
Another half hour passed, and the fever really did subside. Shen Meina carried her out and thanked Du Ruoxia again.
Du Ruoxia looked Shen Meina up and down, feeling that she looked familiar, but she couldn't remember where she had seen her before.
He gave them a final reminder of what to pay attention to when they got back before watching the family of three leave.
When it was almost time, Du Ruoxia saw that there were no patients, so she tidied up and went to the cafeteria to get food before going home.
That afternoon, Du Ruoxia did not continue seeing patients because she had surgery, so she held a meeting with everyone to discuss the surgical plan for tomorrow.
The patient was taken into the operating room the next day.
Everyone was quite nervous, except for Du Ruoxia, who was holding the scalpel and remained incredibly calm.
For her, this was just a minor surgery, not a major one; she had done much more difficult surgeries before.
But she didn't dare to be careless. With the hospital director there, even Gao Yuyang, who was on duty as a doctor, came to learn.
The patient only received spinal anesthesia; he still has sensation in his upper body.
The surgery lasted only two hours.
Finally able to breathe a sigh of relief, she changed her clothes and left the operating room, barely having time to sit down properly.
"Doctor, doctor, someone come quick..."
The shouts from outside had barely subsided when Du Ruoxia rushed out immediately.
Jiang Xiaoli was the second to chase after him, while Gao Yuyang lagged behind by two steps.
When everyone came out, they saw several people covered in blood being carried in by a group of people in military uniforms.
Just as Du Ruoxia was about to ask what was going on, Zhou Kaicai bumped into her and told her what happened.
"Get out of the way, don't block the way for everyone to save people."
Du Ruoxia already knew what kind of person he was, but she was still so angry that she wanted to curse him. In the end, she pursed her lips and walked towards the second injured person.
"What happened? This is..." She was too shocked to ask the rest of the question, and then she realized that this era was not as peaceful as she had imagined.
