Chapter 981 Forty-eight Hours
After an unknown amount of time, Yu Zhiming woke up from his sleep and found that the light coming through the gaps in the curtains made the bedroom much brighter.
The daybreaks are getting earlier and earlier.
Yu Zhiming reached out for the phone on the bedside table, turned on the screen and found no missed calls or messages, so he got up.
Today is Thursday, the day for my physical examination every other week.
In the morning, physical examinations were conducted on personnel from the donating units, and in the afternoon, physical examinations were conducted on personnel arranged by the National Health Commission.
At night, Yu Zhiming also had to assist surgeons in performing surgery to remove cancerous tissue from the Saudi prince.
All in all, today's work was not very challenging, but it was quite physically and mentally taxing.
After getting up, Yu Zhiming released his memory step by step, washed up, and then went to the fitness area on the first floor with Qing Ning to do fitness exercises separately.
He performed the longevity exercise three times and rested for a few minutes. Then his elder sister Yu Chaoxia prepared breakfast.
We cooked eight-treasure porridge, and the staple food was fist-sized mushroom and meat buns and egg fried rice, as well as two meat dishes, two vegetable dishes, two side dishes, and two boiled eggs per person.
Yu Zhiming peeled a boiled egg when his eldest sister's voice rang in his ears. "Lao Wu, someone from my hometown contacted me last night and said that one of her friends' sons, who is in elementary school, is a huge drinker, drinking at least two large thermoses of water a day."
"Old Five, is there something wrong with your body?"
Yu Zhiming asked, "Do you pee a lot?"
Yu Zhaoxia replied: "If you drink a lot, you will naturally pee a lot. It is said that you go to the toilet to pee all the time."
"Old Five, what's going on?"
A normal adult loses about 2000-2500 ml of water every day through skin evaporation, breathing, urine, feces, etc.
Therefore, the amount of water an adult needs to consume every day is around this value.
In addition to the normal intake of 1000-1500 ml of water through drinking, the rest can be taken in through food and produced by the body.
Among them, about 300 ml of endogenous water is produced by itself.
A large household kettle can generally hold 3600 ml of water.
Drinking two large pots of water every day is a serious excess for an adult, let alone a primary school student.
Yu Zhiming took a sip of porridge and asked, "Did you keep drinking so much water for quite some time?"
Yu Zhaoxia replied, "They say it's been going on for a year or two."
Yu Zhiming analyzed: "If he has been drinking so much water for a year or two, it might be diabetes insipidus. Let the parents take the child to the hospital for examination and treatment."
Yu Zhaoxia said, "Is it easy to treat?"
Yu Zhiming explained: "There are several causes of diabetes insipidus, and they require symptomatic treatment. The difficulty of treatment varies greatly depending on the cause."
Qing Ning asked, "Zhiming, is it possible to drink a lot of water but not urinate much? This assumes your kidneys are healthy."
Yu Zhiming smiled and said, "Of course."
"The main ways for the human body to excrete water are through urination, breathing, sweat, and defecation. If the urine output is small, the water is naturally excreted through other channels."
"For example, excessive sweating and diarrhea."
Yu Zhiming also explained: "Sweating caused by excessively high ambient temperature generally involves about 300 milliliters of sweat per day in a resting state."
"If you do heavy physical labor in a high ambient temperature, you can sweat up to 3,000 milliliters."
"When the mind is overly stressed, the central nervous system may be stimulated, and sweating may occur, usually between 600 and 700 milliliters."
Yu Zhi obviously gave a brief explanation and then asked, "Qing Ning, do you know how much water an average adult can expel in a day through exhalation?"
"How much?" Qing Ning asked back.
Yu Zhiming smiled and said, "About 500 milliliters on average."
"There are so many!" Qing Ning exclaimed in surprise, and then said, "No wonder when it's cold, water droplets quickly condense on the car windows. It turns out they're all from your own breath."
While eating, Yu Zhiming talked about some relatively interesting knowledge and data and ended breakfast happily.
He made some preparations, met up with Zhou Mo and Zhang Hai who came to pick him up, said goodbye to his family, and left the community by car.
"Doctor Yu..."
Zhou Mo reported softly, "Last night, I received a request from Dr. Bao Wan for training on kidney transplant technology."
"Including cadaver teacher training, experimental animal surgery simulations, and field study tours, the total training fee requested is 650,000 yuan."
Yu Zhiming nodded and said, "The charity fund is being consumed a bit slowly. It's better to spend the money than to leave it unused."
Zhou Mo understood Yu Zhiming's idea and said, "I will notify Dr. Bao to come and handle the formalities as soon as possible."
She asked tentatively, "Doctor Yu, as the saying goes, 'near water, near water'. Zhou Luo, Shen Qi, Sui Chi, and Duan Yi are all family members. Shouldn't you give them priority?"
Yu Zhiming glanced at Zhou Mo and said, "Are these four guys short of resources? What they have is already countless times more than other young doctors."
“No need to lean on them anymore.”
After a pause, Yu Zhiming reminded him, "Remember to inform nurse Jian Qin that the young nurses in the team, including herself, need to constantly improve themselves. Ask her to develop an annual training plan."
“The necessary expenses are also paid from charitable funds.”
Zhou Mo hummed, then asked, "Doctor Yu, do you think I need some training too?"
Yu Zhiming looked at her and asked with a smile, "What do you want to train? Nursing skills? Financial skills? Or fighting skills?"
At this time, Zhang Hai, who was driving, spoke.
"Zhou Mo, the leader once told me that if you want to improve your fighting and security skills, I can make the connection and have you go to Binhai Special Forces for special training."
“It’s free and the time is flexible.”
This made Zhou Mo grin. Was this considered digging a hole for himself?
Seeing Zhou Mo's unwillingness to go, Yu Zhiming smiled and said, "Zhou Mo, with your current abilities, you are more than enough to protect me."
He added bluntly, "If you really were to encounter a top-tier professional assassin like those seen in movies and TV shows, even if you trained for another ten years, you wouldn't be a match for them."
Zhang Hai spoke again, saying, "Doctor Yu, those scenes in movies and TV shows where one person directly fights against a dozen people and completely destroys them simply don't exist in reality."
"The reality is, no matter how skilled your martial arts skills are, you're still afraid of a kitchen knife."
Qing Ning couldn't help but ask, "Zhang Hai, facing a group of gangsters, the kind that ordinary people would fight, without using guns, how many people can you deal with?"
Zhang Hai said slowly, "It depends on the environment and many other factors. If it's a complex environment that allows me to fully engage in roving combat and eliminate them one by one, I won't worry even if the enemy has dozens of people."
"But if they're organized and able to cooperate, three or five of them could cause me to suffer a major setback."
"Especially in a situation where someone, regardless of their own life or death, hugs and holds me, creating an opportunity for others to attack. Two or three ordinary people could defeat me."
Zhou Mo was a little disappointed, and then he heard Zhang Hai continue: "As security personnel, our goal is not to eliminate criminals, but to get the people we protect out of the dangerous environment as quickly as possible."
“Whenever we arrive at a new place, the first thing we do is to observe the environment and plan multiple evacuation routes.”
Zhou Mo took over and said, "Doctor Yu, I strongly recommend that you add two more fitness programs. One is the 100-meter sprint, and the other is the 5,000-meter cross-country run."
Yu Zhi understood this guy at a glance...
At about the same time as usual, Yu Zhiming arrived at the third basement floor of Zhizhen Building of Huashan Hospital and found that Zhou Luo's mother, Yang Sican, the editor-in-chief of Binhai Science and Technology Press, was waiting for him.
"Doctor Yu, these are the three publishing plans our publishing house's planning department has prepared for your audiobook."
Yang Sican handed a document to Yu Zhiming and said, "Doctor Yu, our publishing house has received no less than a hundred calls recently asking about the publication progress of this monograph."
"This is a rare occurrence in recent years, which shows how eagerly readers are looking forward to this audiobook."
Yang Sican asked expectantly, "Doctor Yu, are we going to make substantive progress on this work?"
Yu Zhiming pondered and said, "Editor-in-Chief Yang, I've been a bit busy with work recently."
"I will review your proposal as soon as possible and strive to complete the relevant preparatory work for publication as soon as possible."
Yang Sican said with a smile: "I learned from my family Zhou Luo that you, Doctor Yu, are indeed very busy. However, education is also a top priority, isn't it?"
Yu Zhiming responded "yes" and said that he would make time to deal with the matter as soon as possible.
When Yang Sican said goodbye and left, he winked at Zhou Luo who was standing beside him several times.
Zhou Luo saw it all, but he could only apologize to his mother.
He didn't dare to urge Dr. Yu.
Especially since Dr. Yu is so busy with work every day, it's not intentional procrastination...
Around eleven o'clock in the morning, Yu Zhiming was performing a physical examination on someone in the soundproof examination room when Sui Chi walked into the examination room.
He waited for Yu Zhiming to finish his examination and reported quickly, "Doctor Yu, a patient suffered cardiac arrest at work. Although he was revived, he suffered eleven cardiac arrests during his treatment in our hospital."
"It has been nearly 45 hours since the first cardiac arrest. Not only is the patient unconscious, but his heart rhythm is also irregular and he could stop at any time."
"The patient's family would like you to examine whether the patient's heart injury can still be cured. Will there be any serious sequelae?"
After a pause, Sui Chi reminded, "Um, Doctor Yu, forty-eight hours!"
The forty-eight hours made Yu Zhiming look terrified.
Forty-eight hours is a hard and fast rule for work-related injuries.
Sudden illness during working hours and at the workplace, which leads to death within 48 hours after rescue efforts are ineffective, is considered an occupational injury.
If the person dies more than forty-eight hours later, it is not considered an occupational injury according to the law.
The difference in compensation amount can be quite large depending on whether the death is determined to be a work-related injury or not.
Yu Zhiming asked in a deep voice, "Does the patient's family want to give up?"
Sui Chi replied softly, "The patient's family members mean that if it's just a matter of delaying treatment and there's no hope of recovery, then it's best not to exceed 48 hours..."
