Chapter 1413 Which side do you sit on?
After the kidney with the stone was removed, it was placed in an organ preservation box and taken away by Dr. Cui Zhitan.
Cui Zhitan said passionately that he would handle this matter for Yu Zhiming.
Of course, the one who exposed this matter must be Yu Zhiming.
Because this violated the unspoken rule of doctors protecting each other, it offended more than one person and killed him. Cui Zhitan jokingly said that he was too small and weak to handle it, but Yu Zhiming had become a towering tree that no one could shake...
After Yu Zhiming threw the matter out, he returned to his soundproof office to draw up a surgical plan for Lou Xiaoxiao. It was not until nearly the end of the working day that Director Yang Mai of the Medical Department arrived.
Yang Mai said straight to the point, "Doctor Yu, I want to inform you about the problem with that kidney."
After a two-second pause, he introduced, "The surgeon in charge is Dr. Xun Peiliang, deputy chief physician of the Urology Department."
"Preoperative examinations showed that the patient's left kidney met the surgical criteria for removal."
"It was only after the operation began that Dr. Xun did not conduct further confirmatory examinations on the patient's kidney. He skipped this important step and proceeded directly to remove it, which ultimately led to a medical malpractice."
Yang Mai added: "The hospital has suspended Dr. Xun's medical work and launched an internal investigation into the surgical accident."
Yu Zhiming said, "What about the kidney?"
“Destroyed!”
"destroy?!"
Yu Zhiming was somewhat surprised by this answer and asked, "Has it been confirmed to be contaminated? Can it not be transplanted back?"
Yang Mai met Yu Zhiming's gaze and explained, "We can't be sure if it's contaminated, but based on surgical procedures, we have to treat it as if it's contaminated."
"Doctor Yu, if something unexpected happens, it's a life-threatening situation, and no one can bear the responsibility."
I felt quiet for a while until dawn.
He also knew that what Director Yang said made sense. It's better to be safe than sorry. If someone dies, it will be a big deal.
However, Yu Zhiming always felt that it would be a pity to destroy the kidneys directly.
How many patients with kidney failure are desperate for a kidney but cannot get one? They should be willing to take the risk.
Yang Mai seemed to see what Yu Zhiming was thinking and said softly, "Doctor Yu, what I just said was the hospital's internal investigation. For the kidney removal patient and his family, Doctor Xun performed a successful operation."
What?
Yu Zhiming thought for a moment that he had misheard.
Facing Yu Zhiming's questioning gaze, Yang Mai felt his body sink and secretly sighed. Unknowingly, Yu Zhiming also had an extraordinary power.
He calmed himself down and said with a wry smile, "Doctor Yu, that kidney can't be re-implanted. If we tell the patient, they'll definitely make a scene. To keep the peace, the hospital has to meet their exorbitant demands."
Yang Mai sighed softly and said, "Doctor Yu, you may not know how outrageous the conditions they will propose are."
"If we are to conduct our business impartially and go through the medical malpractice appraisal and legal procedures, we need to hand over Dr. Xun."
"If this happens, Dr. Xun's medical career may be over."
"Training a deputy chief physician is not easy. Both personal and national investment are considerable."
Yu Zhiming also knew that many hospitals would try to conceal medical accidents that were their own fault, not letting patients and their families know, and trying to get away with it as much as possible.
If it is impossible to conceal the truth, a private agreement can be reached. Medical malpractice appraisal and legal proceedings are the last resort.
He couldn't imagine that Huashan Hospital also had the same process.
Is this the case that all crows are black?
Yang Mai continued, "I also know that handling this matter this way is somewhat unfair to the patients. But as a member of the hospital, I must prioritize the interests of the hospital and protect my doctors."
He added in a deep voice, "As for Doctor Xun, after the internal investigation is completed, the hospital will definitely impose severe punishment to achieve the goal of punishing past mistakes and preventing future ones, while also curing and saving lives..."
At this moment, Yu Zhiming also understood.
Director Yang Mai came over and gave him a long explanation just to make him shut up.
This matter has to end at the hospital and cannot be made public.
Yu Zhiming suddenly thought of something and asked, "Doctor Xun, what is his background and connections?"
Yang Mai smiled awkwardly and said, "Doctor Yu, you know that many of the doctors in the hospital are either second-generation doctors or have family members working in the medical system."
"Doctor Xun's father used to work at the blood station and retired as a section-level cadre a few years ago."
Yu Zhiming uttered a soft "oh" and asked, "How has Dr. Xun performed consistently?"
Yang Mai added: "It's an average condition, not excellent, but as a deputy chief physician, he still has some strength."
He then asked softly, "Doctor Yu, what do you think about this?"
Yu Zhiming looked at Yang Mai's face, which was full of anticipation and a little nervousness. He let out a sigh and said, "I'm also a member of the hospital. I don't want to see the hospital become a hot topic of discussion online because of a medical accident..."
After seeing Director Yang off, Yu Zhiming felt very depressed and heavy in his heart.
As a member of the hospital, it is natural for you to sit on the hospital side, not the patient side.
But my conscience was condemned.
Through this incident, Yu Zhiming realized his own weaknesses and became a little soft-hearted and sentimental.
Under the persuasion of Director Yang, who had a good impression of him, although he was a little reluctant, he still agreed on the spur of the moment.
When Yu Zhiming saw that it was already past the end of the working day and he had lost his enthusiasm for work, he simply packed up and went home.
It was a rare occasion that he got off work on time, so Yu Zhiming called Zeng Yan, who was doing an internship in general surgery.
Zeng Yan still needed to be busy for a few minutes, so Yu Zhiming, Zhou Mo and Zhang Hai slowly walked to the underground parking lot.
As Yu Zhiming walked into the underground parking lot of the comprehensive office building, he heard hurried footsteps behind him.
He paid no attention to it, but as the footsteps approached, he heard a soft call.
"Doctor Yu..."
Yu Zhiming followed the voice and saw a familiar young face.
"Did you deliver the kidney to me this afternoon?"
The young doctor nodded hurriedly and said, "It's me, that's it! Doctor Yu, that kidney... Oh, if only I had insisted on persuading Doctor Xun a little longer."
Hearing this, Yu Zhiming's eyes flashed and he asked, "Did you know that the kidney doesn't need to be removed?"
The young doctor hesitated, "Well... well... I'm not sure. When I looked at the preoperative examination data, I felt that there was still a chance of saving the patient."
"Doctor Xun said that the surgery wasn't worth it and that it would be better to just remove it and fix it once and for all."
When Yu Zhiming heard this, he frowned.
Since someone had raised objections, why didn't Dr. Xun conduct a more careful examination to confirm that his judgment was correct before the removal?
Is he overconfident?
Or is it just consistent negligence?
The young doctor's voice rang in Yu Zhiming's ears again, "I've raised objections to previous surgeries, but none of them were accepted by Dr. Xun."
"If I could hold on a little longer this time, maybe the outcome of today's surgery would be different."
Yu Zhiming narrowed his eyes.
Judging from what the young doctor said, this kind of thing might have happened more than once.
It's necessary to have someone investigate that Xun...
