Chen Xia originally planned to play until school started before returning home, but then her aunt called her directly.
The Chen family's journey to becoming one of the top ten richest families in Hong Kong was not a glorious one. They only gained the position after an entire family was wiped out, so they were somewhat excluded from the wealthy circle.
The Ye family is the only ally.
They have a mortal feud with the Li family, but the Li family's words carry much more weight than the Chen family. They are chameleons who can get their way with both the mainland and the British Hong Kong government.
So now that the Liu family is in trouble, if the Chen family can help solve it, I believe the Liu family can also become an ally of the Chen family.
Moreover, the two industries are highly complementary and can play a very important role in the layout of Four Seasons Group in Hong Kong and the Mainland.
Because of this, Chen Xia couldn't be too willful and ended his trip to Nanfeng Island and came to Hong Kong.
Gu Lin and the triplets went to accompany the elderly, while Chen Xia came to Margaret Hospital alone. Liu Yingluo's treatment still encountered problems.
After the hospital's full rescue efforts, Liu Yingluo's broken bones have been reconnected, and the burned area is being actively prepared for skin grafting.
The most important brain surgery was only half successful.
Why is it only half successful?
Because the blood clots in Liu Yingluo's brain had been cleared, it was quite difficult for the operation to achieve this step, but the patient just did not wake up.
As a doctor, Chen Xia certainly believes in his own judgment.
But no matter how Chen Xia stimulated her, Liu Yingluo had no reaction. Her muscles were relaxed, her eyeballs were fixed, her pupils were dilated, and her brainstem reflexes disappeared.
This is a typical manifestation of deep coma.
The situation is not optimistic.
He also carefully compared the brain CT scans before and after the operation, but unfortunately it lacked the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan most commonly used in later generations.
But Chen Xia had already determined that this was a manifestation of brain damage to the nerves. The blood clots were cleared, but the brain nerves did not recover.
Combined with the electroencephalogram, it can basically be determined that the patient is brain dead.
Basically, it is because there are still stray waveforms in the EEG, but they are not strong and can be a straight line at any time, so there is no need for rescue.
Professor Xu Dezheng of the Department of Neurosurgery, the lead surgeon, also nodded.
"Boss, my assessment is similar to yours. The patient has lost consciousness, has no reflexes, and has very weak EEG noise. It appears the brainstem has been damaged. It seems he can't be saved."
The Liu family was isolated outside the ward, so the conversations between the doctors were more direct.
If Mrs. Liu Xingwei heard this judgment, they would definitely faint.
When Chen Shuqin heard this, she felt very sad. For one thing, it was such a pity that the little girl in her 20s on the hospital bed had lost her life.
Another one felt sorry that the Chen family missed a good opportunity to form an alliance with the Liu family.
While everyone was discussing the patient's condition, the temperature monitoring system on Liu Yingluo's bed suddenly sounded an alarm, and the nurse immediately read the data:
"Professor Xu, the patient's temperature is currently 103.5 degrees Fahrenheit."
Chen Xia heard that this was equivalent to a high temperature of 39.8 degrees Celsius. Considering the patient's condition, it was not difficult to judge that there was only one possibility:
"Infect".
Professor Xu said worriedly:
"Boss, the patient has multiple injuries. In addition to fractures to both lower limbs, ribs, skull, and scapula, there are also extensive burns on the outside of both lower limbs and back. It's going to be difficult to get rid of the infection."
The ICU director next to him also introduced:
"We're currently using the highest-quality antibiotics produced by Pumpkin Vine Pharmaceuticals, but her temperature won't go down. If it keeps going like this, I'm afraid this infection will kill her before she even reaches brain death."
After hearing these introductions, Chen Xia had an inspiration in his mind that he couldn't grasp.
High fever, infection, brain injury, coma...
Wait, wait, wait, these symptoms seem... Could traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) be of any use?
Chen Xia immediately thought of some medicines stored in his space hospital. Many years ago, he purchased a lot of authentic "Angong Niuhuang Pills" from Tong Ren Tang. Can't this pill be used as a life-saving medicine?
Angong Niuhuang Pills have the effect of clearing away heat and opening the orifices. They are often used clinically to treat heat-blocking syndrome and are also used as an orifice-opening agent.
Translated into plain language, this medicine can be used as a fever-reducing medicine, and can also be used as a special medicine to restore consciousness.
But Chen Xia is not a professional Chinese medicine doctor, so he is not very confident. Professional matters should be left to professionals.
"Wait a minute, I suddenly thought of a Chinese medicine that might work wonders, but I still need a professional Chinese medicine practitioner to diagnose it."
"traditional Chinese medicine?"
Professor Xu Dezheng, a professional doctor who received a complete Western medical education, found this completely unacceptable, especially for such a critically ill patient.
The impression given by traditional Chinese medicine is that it is used for conditioning and has a slow effect. Now the patient is in a coma and infected, and he will die if he is not careful, but they actually ask traditional Chinese medicine to save his life?
This is a joke.
There are traditional Chinese medicine practitioners in Hong Kong, but they are basically used as "tonics" or "fall injury treatment" medicines, and have never been involved in neurosurgery or the treatment of craniocerebral injuries.
Professor Xu's education was beyond his decades of clinical experience, so it's no wonder he had doubts.
"Boss, shouldn't we be cautious when using traditional Chinese medicine? If you're not careful, those herbs can actually damage your liver and kidneys."
Chen Shuqin also advised: "Will the Liu family think we are just perfunctory?"
In the general impression of people, only when Western medicine fails and there is no other way will they try Chinese medicine. Basically, at this point, it means that it is purely a matter of luck and the patient is sentenced to suspended death penalty.
Chen Xia shrugged. "What else can we do now? Let's try it out. Don't forget, I have a large team of highly skilled Chinese medicine practitioners at Four Seasons Hospital in the mainland. Perhaps they can help."
Although Professor Xu still didn't believe it in his heart, since his boss said so, he didn't want to strongly object.
From his heart, Liu Yingluo had basically been sentenced to death. There was no hope of saving her, and she was relying entirely on a ventilator and nutrient solution to keep her alive.
In order to avoid causing misunderstandings among the Liu family, Chen Xia asked everyone to keep it a secret, and he sent a private plane to bring several top players from the State Hospital to Hong Kong as quickly as possible.
The three great players who came this time were:
Mr. Lu Zhengzhi is good at treating difficult diseases, Dr. Zhou Huashao is good at treating various neurological diseases, and there is also a national-level acupuncturist Zhou Ande.
These three old gentlemen were still seeing patients in the outpatient clinic that morning when they received a notice at noon to urgently go on a business trip to Hong Kong, and they were picked up by a special plane.
This made the three old gentlemen feel very nervous, knowing that they were going to see a "noble person".
You can treat an important person. If the treatment is successful, everyone will be happy. But if the treatment is not successful, it will damage your reputation.
Back in the old Peking Baicaoting, Master Bai made a diagnosis that made the boss unhappy, so the boss smashed his carriage and killed his horses. They were not kidding.
