Chapter 634: The County Hospital’s Thoughts
"Doctor Yu, the patient has a brain herniation caused by intracranial hemorrhage."
When he heard it was brain hernia, Yu Zhiming couldn't help but frown.
If the bleeding rate of a patient with cerebral hemorrhage is too fast and the disease progresses rapidly, a large intracerebral hematoma may easily form in a short period of time.
Intracerebral hematoma can compress the surrounding brain tissue, causing extensive and diffuse brain tissue edema, increased intracranial pressure, and brain herniation.
Brain herniation can lead to ischemia and necrosis of brain tissue contents, resulting in brainstem dysfunction, endangering the patient's life, causing respiratory and cardiac arrest, and even death.
Tao Qin, a young doctor from the pediatric department, looked at Yu Zhiming with admiration and quickly explained, "Because the bleeding is too deep and too dangerous, no one dares to take action."
After a pause, Tao Qin added, "The patient's current condition is not suitable for transfer to another hospital."
This made Yu Zhiming frown even more tightly.
Of course, he understood the level of neurosurgery at the county hospital, which was limited to treating skull fractures and craniotomy and bleeding.
If we go any further, we will be powerless.
However, the patient has already suffered a brain herniation, so as a doctor, even if I am not very capable, I should still take the risk and try it.
What Tao Qin said, "no one dares to take action," is just a euphemism to say that no one is willing to take responsibility and risk.
"Let me take a look at the film."
Before Yu Zhiming could finish his words, the man who had been crying with his face covered suddenly ran towards the emergency room as if his legs were equipped with springs.
Seeing this, Yu Zhiming also walked towards the emergency room.
Before I even entered the emergency room, the man ran out with the X-ray.
"Doctor, doctor, films! Films!"
Yu Zhiming took the film and raised it towards the light...
This is a skull base hemorrhage near the brain stem. Blood accumulates inside the brain and cannot be released, causing cerebral edema and then brain herniation...
Yu Zhiming pondered for a moment and said, "I can drain the intracerebral bleeding through puncture and relieve the brain herniation."
"For further treatment, I have no other options. I can only transfer to a larger hospital."
Tao Qin nodded her head vigorously and said, "Doctor Yu, this is enough. If the patient's brain herniation is not relieved, and the bumpy journey is not going to allow him to make it to a large hospital..."
Yu Zhiming said in a deep voice: "Prepare for the operation..."
Yu Zhiming is no longer the same person he was before. When he walked into the emergency room, he received great assistance from everyone.
The emergency surgery for the patient who had been intubated and was receiving intravenous fluids and blood transfusions was ready after Yu Zhiming changed into disposable sterile surgical gown.
The main thing is that this operation is quite simple.
All you need to do is make a hole in the head and then puncture it to drain the blood accumulated inside the brain.
More importantly, Yu Zhiming has accumulated several relatively safe puncture routes through the puncture and implantation of radioactive sources in skull base tumors in similar locations.
This is why he agreed to take over this patient.
After all, it was a human life, and he had the ability to do so. No matter what the cause was, he couldn't just sit back and watch...
A hole was drilled behind the left ear and then punctured with a needle. The whole process took less than five minutes.
Yu Zhiming was also drenched in blood from the puncture needle...
After connecting the drainage bag, Yu Zhiming left the emergency room and unexpectedly found that many people had gathered outside.
President Wu, Vice President Hao, Dr. Liu Yidao from the Department of Surgery, the director and several colleagues of Yu Zhiming's previous department, and a dozen or so colleagues from other departments whom he knew.
Dean Wu laughed and said, "Doctor Yu, as soon as he returned to the hospital, he showed his skills and saved the patient's life."
"This is true benevolence and compassion."
Yu Zhiming said modestly, "Director Wu, thank you for the compliment. It's too early to say we've saved a life. I hope the patient has good luck."
He threw the disposable surgical gown he took off into the trash can, and noticed Qing Ning coming closer and showing him his car keys and cell phone.
"That girl?"
Qing Ning replied softly, "It was intestinal torsion. The surgery has been completed."
She whispered again, "If they believed you, they wouldn't even have to do the surgery. Just suffer a lot."
Yu Zhiming chuckled and said, "I'm glad the girl is okay."
Yu Zhiming once again cast his gaze towards Dean Wu, who said with a smile on his face, "Doctor Yu, Miss Gu, please come to my office for tea."
"I have a lot of things I want to tell you..."
Yu Zhiming first exchanged a few words with other acquaintances, and then followed Dean Wu to the Dean's office.
To be frank, Dean Wu's office is much more spacious and luxurious than those of Dean Li and Gu Qingran.
The main reason is that the county hospital is the only one that dominates the county, and its position in the county cannot be shaken by other medical institutions.
Yu Zhiming made small talk, "President Wu, is Wu Yuanhang back?"
Dean Wu sighed as he made tea, "He hasn't come back yet. He said he's going to his mother-in-law's house to celebrate the Spring Festival this year."
"Once you have a wife, you forget your parents."
Yu Zhiming chuckled and glanced at Qing Ning beside him in a somewhat ostentatious manner.
Dean Wu saw this, suppressed his smile, and poured a cup of tea for both of them and himself.
"Doctor Yu, according to the cooperation agreement we signed with Huashan Hospital, they will send an expert medical team to us every year for at least three days of business guidance."
Yu Zhiming took a sip of his teacup and then heard Dean Wu continue, "We plan to schedule it for March or April."
"It's this medical expert. Can you send him here according to our specific needs?"
Yu Zhiming pondered and said, "It shouldn't be a big problem."
"It's just that the experts here might be a bit frivolous. They're unlikely to be senior chief physicians. They might just be a few deputy chief physicians or chief physicians who are about to retire."
Dean Wu smiled with satisfaction and said, "That's enough, that's enough."
"As a deputy chief physician at Huashan Hospital, even if he went to a large hospital in the provincial capital, he would still be considered an expert."
Dean Wu suddenly stood up, went to his desk, and took out a large, slightly heavy brown paper bag from the desk drawer.
"Doctor Yu, to be honest, our county hospital has achieved great progress in the past six months."
Dean Wu placed the brown paper bag on the coffee table near Yu Zhiming and continued, "It can be said that the development of this hospital is largely due to your contribution, Doctor Yu."
"This is a token of gratitude from the hospital."
Dean Wu added: "This was unanimously discussed and agreed upon at the institute's office meeting."
"Doctor Yu, this is the benefit fee you deserve."
Yu Zhiming didn't expect that Dean Wu had prepared this plan. He estimated the size and thickness of the brown paper bag.
There should be 200,000 yuan in cash in it.
"Director Wu, there's no need to be like this. I came from the county hospital, so it's only natural for me to do something for the hospital."
"Where can I get a kickback?"
Dean Wu said sincerely, "Doctor Yu, you have done more than just a little for the hospital."
"To be honest, we can hardly believe the hospital's development and changes in the past six months."
"Too fast, too big."
"The reason for all this is you, Doctor Yu."
Dean Wu said with emotion, "Doctor Yu, if you don't accept this little token of gratitude, we'll all feel bad."
Just then, someone suddenly pushed the door open.
Dean Wu's face darkened and he looked at the person who came with a stern look. He found that it was his assistant Dai.
"The dean, the county officials, and the county governor are all here. They've already come upstairs."
Dean Wu was slightly startled, then quickly stood up and asked, "Are the First and Second Elders coming together?"
"Do you know what it is?"
Assistant Dai shook his head and said, "I don't know. I didn't receive any relevant notification in advance."
"Doctor Yu, Miss Gu, please have some tea for a while. I'm going to go out and greet them."
Dean Wu apologized and hurriedly left the office.
Yu Zhiming weighed the brown paper bag and confirmed his guess, which was two hundred thousand.
"Qingning, is this money?"
Qing Ning said softly, "I suggest you accept it."
"You certainly made a difference in facilitating the cooperation between Huashan, Ning'an, and the county hospitals, and you were a key factor in the success of that collaboration."
"This means that the current development of the county hospital is indeed due to you, and it is legitimate for you to accept some bribes."
After a pause, Qing Ning smiled and said, "If you flatly refuse to accept it, I'm afraid Dean Wu won't be able to sleep peacefully at night."
Just then, Yu Zhiming heard some chaotic footsteps outside the door, so he put the brown paper bag under the coffee table.
The next moment, the office door opened again.
Dean Wu walked in accompanied by two middle-aged men, followed by a large number of people.
Yu Zhiming knew the two middle-aged men in the lead. They were the two most important officials in Liyang County.
Seeing the other party walking straight towards him, Yu Zhiming also stood up.
Then, his hand was shaken enthusiastically.
"Doctor Yu Zhiming, a medical genius and famous doctor from our Liyang County, is truly a man of outstanding talent. He is unforgettable when you see him."
"Thank you! Thank you!" Yu Zhiming was still a little confused and said vaguely, "Thank you Secretary Yan for the compliment."
Secretary Yan held Yu Zhiming's hand tightly and continued, "The county hospital has made rapid progress in the past six months. Director Wu has reported it to me. It's the result of your dedication and hard work, Doctor Yu, who cares deeply about your hometown."
"We have many talented people coming out of Liyang, but there are very few who care about the development of their hometown like you, Doctor Yu, and take action to do so."
Yu Zhiming said vaguely: "This is what should be done. In fact, I didn't do much work."
"It's mainly due to the hard work of the entire hospital under the leadership of President Wu."
Secretary Yan laughed and said, "Modest, too modest."
"I know that Director Wu has been the director of the county hospital for seven or eight years, and the early development was also carried out step by step."
Dean Wu smiled and said, "Secretary Yan's criticism was mainly about the development opportunities that Dr. Yu brought to the hospital. I was just lucky enough to seize it."
At this moment, Dean Wu already understood that the county's top two leaders came specifically for Yu Zhiming.
He also thought that Yu Zhiming was a specially appointed expert of the Central Health Bureau and had extensive connections.
It is only natural that the first and second elder brothers would make a special effort to get to know Yu Zhiming.
He was just a little surprised that Yu Zhiming had only been in the county hospital for more than half an hour.
The other party is too well-informed, isn't he?
PS.
Since Tuesday, I have had a fever, sore throat, and felt unwell. I think I tested positive again.
Overall, it feels a little lighter than the first time.
Will try to keep it updated.
If I really can't hold on any longer, I will ask for leave in advance.
Please support me with monthly tickets, recommendation tickets, etc.!!!
