"Is there a great expert from the National Association in the car?"
The rear door of the ambulance opened. Nie Jiamin and Xie Wanying sat in the car and listened to several people in white coats standing outside the car talking.
These people are probably doctors from the county hospital's emergency room.
Xie Wanying turned her head and saw Teacher Nie’s quiet face, and suddenly she felt that silence is golden.
Why mention the expert now? Shouldn't you ask about the patient's condition first? Why ask about the doctor's identity?
It can be seen that Teacher Nie emphasized professionalism and might not like the other party to ask about his identity and show curiosity in this situation. Xie Wanying thought that the main reason was that the teacher was abroad and did not know the situation of grassroots medical personnel in China. Grassroots medical personnel usually do not have the opportunity to study with the best teachers, but doctors have to learn until they are old, so they were very excited to hear that it was a rare expert from the capital who came.
The teacher made it clear that she would not answer. Xie Wanying jumped out of the car first and contacted the doctor on behalf of the teacher to discuss the child's condition: "The child is less than two years old, one year and ten months old, and is suspected of having a ruptured spleen. He needs to undergo abdominal puncture and B-ultrasound."
After she said this, several doctors turned their attention back to the patient: "Don't you want to do a CT scan?"
"I'm afraid the CT scan will take too long to get the results, and I won't be able to make it in time." According to Nie Jiamin's cautious personality, he had to wait for the official report to come out. Therefore, on the way, Nie Jiamin decided to do B-ultrasound and abdominal puncture first, which were the same.

Several doctors at the county hospital understood what she meant, looked at each other, and said to her, "The surgery department here cannot perform surgery on infants and young children. This child is too young. Our hospital has never performed surgery on such a young child."
"Let's send the child to the emergency room first." Xie Wanying said, "May I ask who is the surgical doctor on duty tonight?"
"My last name is Zhou. I'm from the general surgery department of the county hospital. I was called down for emergency treatment." Doctor Zhou introduced himself.
The emergency room of the county hospital usually has only one doctor on night shift, and the doctor from the inpatient department will be called down when needed.
Xie Wanying estimated that Dr. Zhou was about the same age as Teacher Sun. This was normal. Generally, young people were assigned to the frontline of the hospital to accumulate clinical experience.
The two doctors behind Dr. Zhou were relatively older and looked more like grassroots medical personnel who had come to the county hospital for further training or were on-duty internal medicine doctors.
"Come on, come on, help push the lathe." Dr. Zhou directed the crowd.
The child was rushed from the ambulance to the emergency room.
Xie Wanying and the others followed along and saw that the emergency room was very small, with only one emergency bed, five observation beds, one ECG monitor, and one internal medicine and surgery clinic.
The 100-square-meter hall outside was filled with chairs, and all the chairs were occupied by patients receiving intravenous drips. Although the county people's hospital is small, it is the only top-level hospital in the surrounding area for miles. Ordinary people cannot go anywhere else unless they come here for medical treatment.
The five observation beds are occupied by critically ill patients whose families do not agree to transfer them to other hospitals and are waiting for a miracle. This is what Dr. Zhou said.
The emergency bed was empty, but in the car next door there was a body covered with a white cloth, reportedly waiting for the family members to take it away.
When the nurse saw a new patient coming, she moved the screen over to block the view of the people around who were watching the excitement.
The masses were kept out, but what could not be stopped was the enthusiasm of the medical staff from the grassroots hospitals to learn from the professors in the capital.
The child was placed in the emergency room. Xie Wanying was explaining the central venous catheter to the child to the nurse. She heard the voices behind her getting louder and louder. She turned around and saw a crowd of people.
